The sample size was determined by the principle of saturation and through purposive non-random sampling, selecting 18 interviewees. The data collection tools were systematic literature review and semi-structured interviews. The data analysis method employed was content analysis.

Conclusion: The similarities and differences between these two approaches were compared, and based on the final indicators, a model was presented that was deemed credible by the experts.
