Codes are classified on the continuum from barrier to facilitator (1. [red] absolute barriers; 2. [orange] themes being mentioned mainly as barriers but sometimes as a facilitator; 3. [yellow] themes being mentioned as a barrier or facilitator equally; 4. [light green] themes being mentioned mainly as facilitator but sometimes as a barrier; and 5 [green] absolute facilitators) and on the continuum of being a stronger or a weaker factor. The numbers in parenthesis indicate the number of interviews the code is represented in and the groundedness of the code (number of quotations linked to that particular code).
