About the checklist

The checklist was developed with the assistance of experts from various fields (e.g., psychology, social sciences, computer science) in a three-round Delphi study. Want to learn more about them? Have a look at the experts section. Although we refer to "the checklist", there are actually 331 different versions available. Just answer two simple questions, and you'll receive a tailor-made checklist for your project.

Our expert panel

Throughout the three rounds of our study, more than 30 experts rated and refined checklist items, while also suggesting valuable new additions. We couldn't have developed this checklist without them!
