A qualitative data analysis approach was employed, allowing for an in-depth analysis to accomplish the purpose of this study with open-ended responses from semi-structured interviews with the participants. Convenience sampling was utilized to obtain basic data and trends related to this study without the complications of using a randomized sample.
