“…Considering the Delphi ndings, four dimensions, 11 criteria, and 32 sub-criteria were employed for assessing urban resilience. As Kharat et al (2016) and Shi et al (2020) maintain, the Delphi method is an effective method for measuring criteria and nding optimal solutions which can effectively convert vague, subjective, and linguistic data from experts' opinions into quantitative and logical results. In the present study, the DEMATEL combination with ANP approaches was used to determine the interdependent relationships among the criteria and their importance.…”

In fact, the views of world communities have shifted from a focus on reducing vulnerability to increasing resilience in the event of a crisis. The present study used GIS-based DANP model to investigate the resilience of Tehran districts to hazards. First, the influencing criteria on resilience were selected in four dimensions using Delphi method. Then, a DEMATEL model followed by an ANP were applied to define the internal relationship between the criteria. Next, the GIS overlay was performed to give visual outputs. DEMATEL results showed that disasters and natural hazards in the environmental dimension, urban infrastructure in the physical dimension, and employment rate in the socio-economic dimension were the most important criteria which affected urban resilience. Additionally, 54.7% of the total urban area was categorized in very-low to moderate resilience classes, needing serious attention. This study provides fresh insights for urban planners to know the cause-and-effect relations between dimensions and criteria, to best deal with the resilience.

“…Full ethical approval was obtained for the study (IR.MUMS.NURSEREC.1397.034). Delphi survey methods, with anonymized feedback of results, involving key informants were used to develop the core outcome set (14,15). Summary of methods used to develop a core risk factor set for assessment of breast cancer risk in Iranian females.…”

Background: There have been several methods designed to assess the risk of breast cancer. But according to studies conducted in Iran, the risk to Iranian women could not be accurately calculated with current tools. The aim of this study was to obtain consensus regarding potential breast cancer risk factors in Iran. Methods: A long list of risk factors identified from an integrative review of literature and specialist interviews (round 1) were used to design a questionnaire survey. In round 2 specialists were asked to rate the importance of each risk factor. Items considered very important after round 2 were carried out to the primary draft of core risk factors set and less important items were excluded. In round 3, respondents were asked to reprioritize moderate important risk factors. The items considered very important in round 3 must be included in core risk factors set.Results: In first round 11 specialists were interviewed and a total of 119 items were obtained of the first round and results of integrative review of literature. 30 specialists (response rate 50%) prioritized risk factors of BC in round 2. 51 were carried forward to the round 3 for consensus. No consensus was reached on any of the risk factors that went into Round 3 (response rate 86.7%). Therefore, a list of risk factors containing 25 important risk factors for breast cancer were obtained.Conclusion: This study highlights the items experts feel would be most important to include in the clinical assessment of breast cancer risk in Iran. With the results of this study, it is possible to provide appropriate and usable tool for screening high risk women in primary health care in Iran.

“…After collecting the opinions of experts in the third round and analyzing the data and considering the lack of relative change based on the coefficient of variation (CV) compared to the second round (> 20%), this Delphi study ended and the laboratory hazard identification and risk assessment questionnaire were developed based on the Delphi technique. It is noteworthy that the acceptance criteria of each component and parameters for this Delphi study were considered with an average of ≤4 [18].…”

The prevalence of fire in laboratories is high due to the potential sources of the fire hazards, including the use of various equipment and chemicals, as well as the possibility of human error. Accordingly, this study was designed and conducted with the aim of developing a tool to identify hazards and assess laboratory fire risk. In the present study, we used the Delphi technique in three rounds in 2020 with the participation of 17 experts in the fields of safety engineering, occupational health engineering, chemistry, and chemical engineering. The scattering index of coefficient of variation (CV) was higher than 20% and the acceptance criterion for each item was considered with an average of ≥4. In addition, the validity and reliability of this tool were evaluated using content validity ratio (CVR), content validity index (CVI), and Cronbach's alpha reliability index. After three rounds of Delphi study, the hazard identification and risk assessment questionnaire for laboratory fire were developed with 45 items, including chemical materials and compounds, electricity, and fire response. The coefficient of variation (CV) in this Delphi study was equal to 0.05. The results of the validity and reliability evaluation of this tool showed that the content validity index (CVI) and Cronbach's alpha coefficient were equal to 0.902 and 0.88. The questionnaire of the present study indicated an acceptable validity and reliability for identifying hazards and assessing laboratory fire risk. Therefore, this tool provided a quick, easy, and practical way to identify hazards and assess the risk of laboratory fires.
