Dataset for Study 3 from Thesis: An identification and critical analysis of barriers to raising the topic of weight in general practice

This data set consists of three trigger films designed as part of Maxine Blackburn's PhD. The trigger films were designed specifically for use within interviews with GPs and acted as an innovative tool to prompt reflection. All scripts were authored by Maxine Blackburn with help from her supervisory team (Professor Chris Eccleston, Dr Afroditi Stathi and Dr Ed Keogh) and other stakeholders. The videos were directed and produced by Therapeutic Media Company with input from Maxine and all roles are played by actors. Twenty GPs were interviewed using the trigger films to generate rich dialogue for a discourse analysis. The videos have provided unique insight into the barriers of raising the topic of weight in general practice .
