目的探讨在发展中国家进行研究时所面临的独特挑战，以便读者能够考虑提供适用于东道国背景的伦理和文化上适当的研究策略的方法。本文概述了基于研究阶段的挑战：入学前、入学和入学后。在每个阶段，都提出了适应挑战的例子，并提出了建议。研究战略应在平衡整个社会需求的同时保护最脆弱和处境不利人群的权利，在平衡机构审查委员会要求的同时提供与文化相关的伦理知情同意，在平衡发达国家确立的伦理研究原则的同时以适合东道国文化的方式开展研究。
Purpose To explore the unique challenges that occur when conducting research in developing countries so the reader can consider approaches for providing ethically and culturally appropriate research strategies applicable for the context of the host country.Organizing Construct This article presents an overview of the challenges, which are organized based on the phases of the research period: pre-enrollment, enrollment, and post-enrollment. At each stage, examples of adaptation to meet the challenges are presented and recommendations are posited.Conclusions Strategies for research should protect the rights of the most vulnerable and disadvantaged populations while balancing the needs of society at large, provide culturally relevant ethical informed consent while balancing institutional review board requirements, and conduct research in a culturally appropriate manner for the host country while balancing the principles of ethical research established by developed countries.
