科学诚信是强大的科学所必需的;然而,许多变量可能会影响科学诚信。在传统研究中,一些常见的威胁是出版压力、资金竞争和职业晋升。基于社区的参与性研究(CBPR)为科学完整性提供了一个不同的背景,并带来了额外和独特的关注。了解由专业和社区调查人员确定的促进或阻碍CBPR中科学诚信的看法,对于促进CBPR的价值至关重要。这项分析探讨了促进CBPR科学诚信的看法,以及2012年来自美国东南部9个州25个CBPR项目的74名专业和社区CBPR调查人员的样本中存在的障碍。对于团队成员作为专业或社区调查员的身份认同,人们有不同的看法。专业人员和社区调查人员发现,在CBPR中促进和阻碍科学诚信的看法是外部压力、社区参与、资金、质量控制和监督、沟通、培训以及性格和信任。一些看法,如交流和培训,促进了科学诚信,而其他看法,如缺乏资金和缺乏信任,可能会阻碍科学诚信。这些结果表明,在CBPR中保持科学完整性的最重要的观念之一是积极的社区参与,这使得科学家和社区成员能够共同承担起监督科学完整性的责任。可信的CBPR科学对于赋予弱势社区权力和政策制定者发言权至关重要。
Scientific integrity is necessary for strong science; yet many variables can influence scientific integrity. In traditional research, some common threats are the pressure to publish, competition for funds, and career advancement. Community-based participatory research (CBPR) provides a different context for scientific integrity with additional and unique concerns. Understanding the perceptions that promote or discourage scientific integrity in CBPR as identified by professional and community investigators is essential to promoting the value of CBPR. This analysis explores the perceptions that facilitate scientific integrity in CBPR as well as the barriers among a sample of 74 professional and community CBPR investigators from 25 CBPR projects in nine states in the southeastern United States in 2012. There were variations in perceptions associated with team member identity as professional or community investigators. Perceptions identified to promote and discourage scientific integrity in CBPR by professional and community investigators were external pressures, community participation, funding, quality control and supervision, communication, training, and character and trust. Some perceptions such as communication and training promoted scientific integrity whereas other perceptions, such as a lack of funds and lack of trust could discourage scientific integrity. These results demonstrate that one of the most important perceptions in maintaining scientific integrity in CBPR is active community participation, which enables a co-responsibility by scientists and community members to provide oversight for scientific integrity. Credible CBPR science is crucial to empower the vulnerable communities to be heard by those in positions of power and policy making.
