“…Cognitive mapping is not just about results. The process itself helps to build partnership between community members and outside researchers, fosters discussion within community and reduces levels of mistrust and misunderstanding (Dion et al, ). Cognitive mapping helps communities coming together to discuss problems, whether these are communities of palliative care nurses, inner‐city youth or Indigenous midwives.…”

“…Considerably more complex examples come from the area of diabetes prevention, as Indigenous community views of prevention contrasted with Western biomedical explanations (Giles et al, ). Concerned with the question of inadequate access to perinatal care, Dion and colleagues used FCM to document the views of service providers and doulas, contrasting these with the published literature on obstacles to access to care (Dion et al, ). The knowledge of indigenous traditional midwives, reflected in FCM, offered Bayesian priors for analysis of a randomized controlled trial of the impact of supporting traditional midwives (Sarmiento, Paredes‐Solís, Andersson, & Cockcroft, ).…”

Aims Describe the implementation and uses of fuzzy cognitive mapping (FCM) as a constructive method for meeting the unique and rapidly evolving needs of nursing inquiry and practice. Design Discussion paper. Data sources Drawing on published scholarship of cognitive mapping from the fields of ecological management, information technology, economics, organizational behaviour and health development, we consider how FCM can contribute to contemporary challenges and aspirations of nursing research. Implications for nursing Fuzzy cognitive mapping can generate theory, describe knowledge systems in comparable terms and inform questionnaire design and dialogue. It can help build participant–researcher partnerships, elevate marginalized voices and facilitate intercultural dialogue. As a relatively culturally safe and foundational approach in participatory research, we suggest that FCM should be used in settings of transcultural nursing, patient engagement, person‐ and family‐centred care and research with marginalized populations. FCM is amenable to rigorous analysis and simultaneously allows for greater participation of stakeholders. Conclusion In highly complex healthcare contexts, FCM can act as a common language for defining challenges and articulating solutions identified within the nursing discipline. Impact There is a need to reconcile diverse sources of knowledge to meeting the needs of nursing inquiry. FCM can generate theory, describe knowledge systems, facilitate dialogue and support questionnaire design. In its capacity to engage multiple perspectives in defining problems and identifying solutions, FCM can contribute to advancing nursing research and practice.

“…The larger project will develop a composite theory of change from three knowledge bases: (1) the scoping review described in this protocol; (2) the research team’s understanding of the intercultural dialogue dynamics as these relate to safe birth; and (3) traditional midwives’ understanding of safe birth. Representing each knowledge set as a fuzzy cognitive map, we will adapt the Weight of Evidence 16 approach to combine the three sources into one model to inform decision making and a stakeholder-led analysis of a cluster randomised controlled trial. 15 In this protocol, we focus on the procedures to conduct the scoping review and mention the additional use of the review results.…”

Factors influencing maternal health in indigenous communities with presence of traditional midwifery in the Americas: protocol for a scoping review

IntroductionIndigenous mothers often receive culturally unsafe services that do not fully respond to their needs. The objective of this scoping review is to collate and assess evidence that identifies factors, including the role and influence of traditional midwives, that affect maternal health in indigenous communities in the Americas. The results will map Western perspectives reflected in published and unpublished literature to indicate the complex network of factors that influence maternal outcomes. These maps will allow for comparison with local stakeholder knowledge and discussion to identify what needs to change to promote culturally safe care.Methods and analysisA librarian will search studies with iterative and documented adjustments in CINAHL, Scopus, Latin American and Caribbean Health Sciences Literature (LILACS), MEDLINE, Embase and Google Scholar without any time restrictions, and use Google search engine for grey literature. Included studies will be empirical (quantitative, qualitative or mixed); address maternal health issues among indigenous communities in the Americas; and report on the role or influence of traditional midwives. Two researchers will independently screen and blindly select the included studies. The quality assessment of included manuscripts will rely on the Mixed Methods Appraisal Tool (MMAT). Two independent researchers will extract data on factors promoting or reducing maternal health in indigenous communities, including the role or influence of traditional midwives. Fuzzy cognitive mapping will summarise the findings as a list of relationships between identified factors and outcomes with weights indicating strength of the relationship and the evidence supporting this.Ethics and disseminationThis review is part of a proposal approved by the ethics committees at McGill University and the Centro de Investigación de Enfermedades Tropicales in Guerrero. Participating indigenous communities in Guerrero State approved the study in 2015. The results of the scoping review will contribute to the field of cultural safety and intercultural dialogue for the promotion of maternal health in indigenous communities.
