From: The TRANSFER Approach for assessing the transferability of systematic review findings
Scenario: For each of the identified transferability factors you have selected, you record the characteristics of the included studies. You decide to use a dichotomous system in order to sort the studies more easily into subgroups related to the transferability factors: length of homelessness at baseline: <6 months, > 6 months; quality of usual housing services: high, low; climate: cold seasons, temperate (see Figure A below). | |||

Studies/Factors | Length of homelessness | Quality of usual HOUSING services | Climate |
Study 1 | > 6 months | High quality | Cold |
Study 2 | < 6 months | High quality | Cold |
Study 3 | < 6 months | High quality | Cold |
Study 4 | > 6 months | High quality | Cold |
Study 5 | < 6 months | Low quality | Cold |
Study 6 | < 6 months | Low quality | Cold |
Study 7 | > 6 months | Low quality | Cold |
Study 8 | < 6 months | Low quality | Cold |
Study 9 | > 6 months | Low quality | Cold |
Study 10 | < 6 months | Low quality | Cold |
