Abstract

Practical investigation of the use of mind-mapping at different stages of the research process: eliciting, representing and integrating knowledge.

EPSRC-funded MAGNET project (developing theoretical models of gun crime to inform stakeholder decision-making about interventions).

Mind-maps were particularly useful for communication within our transdisciplinary team and brainstorming, interviews and focus groups with a diverse range of stakeholders.
