↵* Stakeholder group refers to the roles in which the interviewee was recruited to the project and participated in the study. Primary are the roles for which they were initially interviewed. Secondary roles are those revealed later in the process (for example a policymaker who revealed their parenting status during an interview) and potentially relevant to the research. Subsequent rows are calculated on the primary stakeholder group.
↵† Professional type was an “initial categorization” of non-parent professionals that was later documented for parents in relevant professional roles.
