Quality Rating
Quality review scores were denoted as positive or neutral (Shea, 2017).
Of the included studies,
32 received a positive quality rating and the remaining 6 received
neutral ratings (Bussey-Jones
et al., 2010; Cottler et al., 2013; Kennedy et al., 2011; McDonald et
al., 2012; McDonald et al.,
2014; and Yu et al., 2013). The neutral ratings were based on
misreported information of an
individual’s viewpoint about their willingness to participate in
genomic-related health research
leading to inferences drawn by authors; incorrect reporting of sample
size, income, education,
and ethnic demographic data when comparing diagrammatic data to that
which was reported
from investigators; ambiguous descriptive data about participant
responses on barriers and
facilitators to participate in genomic health research; and an
incomplete research study which the
author attributed to recruitment issues.
