Normalisation Process Theory (NPT) sensitising questions for coherence and cognitive participation in RESTORE²⁶

Construct	NPT sensitising questions for guidelines/training initiatives
Coherence	How do stakeholders conceptualise (make sense of) the guideline/training initiative in terms of their role, content and applicability?
Differentiation	Can stakeholders differentiate the way of working proposed in the guideline/training initiative from their current way of working?
Communal specification	Can stakeholders build up a shared understanding of the aims, objectives and expected benefits of the guideline/training initiative?
Individual specification	Can individual stakeholders ‘make sense’ of the work that implementation of the guideline/training initiative would create for them in their routine work?
Internalisation	Can stakeholders grasp the potential value, benefits and importance of the guideline/training initiative?
Cognitive participation	Do stakeholders engage with the new guideline/training initiative, and if yes, what roles do they take on (or not) to promote their implementation?
Initiation	Are stakeholders able and willing to drive the implementation of the guideline/training initiative forward and get others involved in the new practices?
Legitimation	Do stakeholders believe it is right for them to be involved with the guideline/training initiative and that they can make a useful contribution to its implementation?
Enrolment	Do stakeholders have the capacity and willingness to organise themselves in order to collectively contribute to the work involved in implementing the new guideline/training initiative?
