This process involved reading and re-reading text and assigning broad thematic codes, some of which werepre-defined from topics covered in the group schedule. Subsequently, broad codes were collapsed into higher and lower order themes and descriptive and interpretive summaries were written based on recursive engagement with the data. A combination of inductive analysis and deductive techniques title= fpsyg.2015.01865 were used to generate codes. To aid the credibility and trustworthiness of the results, analyses and interpretations of the data were discussed amongst three members (CM, JT and LF) of the research team [67].Results Figure 2 shows the flow of schools and participants through the trial.
