3.2 Describing relevant studies

A standardised health promotion coding strategy was applied to all study citations
(Peersman and Oliver, 1997). Using this strategy, relevant studies were coded
according to type of study (e.g. a survey, an outcome evaluation); country in
which the study was carried out, the health focus of the report, the characteristics
of the study population, the intervention type, site and provider.

A further set of codes, specifically developed for this scoping review, were also
applied. These codes covered the features of the life check studied (e.g. who
carried out the life check, the mode of assessment) and whether studies focused
on inequalities or particular groups of young people.

Study reports were coded on the basis of abstracts and titles only. Reports were
divided between reviewers. Each report was coded by two reviewers to achieve a
high level of consistency.
