Overview: Moving from evidence synthesis to clinical practice guideline (CPG) recommendations involves judgment by the guideline authoring panel. In this 90-minute webinar, obtain preliminary results of research currently underway aimed at assessing the impact of GRADE factors on group judgment process vs. individual panel members; evaluating additional constructs that are not formally included in the GRADE system (such as, but not limited to, contextual factors); and, improving understanding of the CPG group decision making (judgment) process.

Learning Objectives: At the end of this Webinar, the attendee will be able to:

1. Describe research in progress that looks at GRADE vs non-GRADE factors involved in guideline panel recommendation-making
2. Articulate early findings of the factors that can affect group judgment process
