共识小组方法被广泛用于研究，以确定和衡量存在决策不完整证据的领域。尽管这些方法被广泛使用，但使用和报告的情况往往不一致。本文件和相关指南以三种最常用的方法（德尔菲法、名义团体法和兰德/加州大学洛杉矶分校法）为例，旨在描述这些方法，并强调方法和报告中的共同弱点。本文概述了一系列的建议，以协助研究人员使用共识小组的方法，提供一个全面的描述和理由，在他们的研究中采取的步骤。
Consensus group methods are widely used in research to identify and measure areas where incomplete evidence exists for decision-making. Despite their widespread use, these methods are often inconsistently used and reported. Using examples from the three most commonly used methods, the Delphi, Nominal Group and RAND/UCLA; this paper and associated Guide aim to describe these methods and to highlight common weaknesses in methodology and reporting. The paper outlines a series of recommendations to assist researchers using consensus group methods in providing a comprehensive description and justification of the steps taken in their study.
