Using Q-methodology to explore people’s health seeking behavior and perception of the quality of primary care services

Abstract

This study highlighted the typical characterizations that were associated with each uncovered factor. Informing on the beneficiaries' concerns about the primary care services can help to improve the system through further exploring the issues raised by the respondents and directing particular action on these issues. The characterizing and distinguishing statements can be used as a set of questions to conduct community-based survey on this important aspect of health services.
