Structured expert-panel analysis

Delphi rounds and consensus workspace

Import coded expert submissions, analyze ratings and qualitative comments, prepare subsequent rounds, and document whether consensus has been reached.

Predefined rule: consensus is provisionally met when at least 75% of responding experts rate an item 4 or 5. Medians and interquartile ranges provide additional evidence of support and convergence.
Modified Delphi procedure

Round pathway

Round 1

Rate proposed features, safeguards, and governance mechanisms; explain ratings and propose revisions.

Round 2

Return aggregate findings and synthesized comments; re-rate unresolved or revised items.

Optional Round 3

Focus only on important items with continuing disagreement after Round 2.
