本文的目的是提出一个新的案例,以形成、运作和评估由居住在加利福尼亚州旧金山湾区的穆斯林组成的社区咨询,该咨询利用基于社区的参与式方法来解决当地穆斯林的心理健康需求。CAB是与旧金山湾区最大的伊斯兰中心之一穆斯林社区协会(MCA)合作招募的。除了描述CAB的发展,作者还介绍了根据CAB成员的反馈对最佳工艺进行评估和综合的结果。为了评估被感知的社区咨询委员会成员对其角色的看法,并就如何加强大学团队与CAB之间的关系获得反馈,一个不属于研究过程的独立团队进行了评估。数据是通过匿名的个人调查和在三次评价会议上进行的小组公开讨论来收集的。该评估使用了混合方法数据收集策略,使用了Schulz等人的问题。(,评估和方案规划26,249-262),用于评估CBPR伙伴关系中的群体动力维度的工具。在CAB运营领域内的评估结果表明,CAB成员通过直接参与大学CAB团队进行的研究活动的贡献获得了最大的满足感。集体答复表明,大多数CAB成员对大学CAB团队与董事会成员所代表的多样性之间建立的信任感到满意。然而,鉴于旧金山湾区是一个非常多样化的穆斯林社区,CAB报告了招募代表方面的挑战,这些代表涵盖了所有可能的自我认同群体,并建议招募宗教领袖。建议还包括为CAB成员的潜在经济补偿筹集资金。斯坦福-旧金山湾区CAB表明,通过直接参与、创建反馈渠道和安全空间来赋予社区成员权力,有助于创建以社区为基础的研究,这些研究携带被边缘化社区的真实声音,并反映他们不断变化的需求
The aim of this paper is to present a novel case for the formation, operation and evaluation of a community advisory aboard comprised of Muslims residing in the San Francisco Bay Area, California that utilised a community based participatory approach to address local Muslim mental health needs. The CAB was recruited in partnership with the Muslim Community Association (MCA), one of the largest Islamic centres in the San Franscisco Bay Area. In addition to describing the development of the CAB, the authors present the findings of the evaluation and synthesis of best processes based on CAB members' feedback. To evaluate the perceived community advisory board members' perceptions of their roles and elicit feedback on how to enhance the relationship between the university team and the CAB, an evaluation was conducted by an independent team who was not part of the research process. Data was collected using anonymous individual surveys and small group open discussions that were conducted over three evaluation meetings. The evaluation utilised mixed method data collection strategies using questions from Schulz et al. (, Evaluation and Program Planning 26, 249–262), an instrument for evaluating dimensions of group dynamics within CBPR partnerships. Results of the evaluation within the sphere of CAB operation indicated that CAB members found the greatest satisfaction from their contributions through direct participation in the research activities that were conducted by the university-CAB team. The collective responses indicated that most CAB members were satisfied with trust built between the university-CAB team and the diversity represented in the members of the board. However, given that the Bay Area is home to a very diverse Muslim community, challenges in recruiting representatives that account for all possible self-identifying groups was reported by the CAB with recommendations to recruit religious leaders. Recommendations also included eliciting funds for potential financial compensation for CAB members. The Stanford-San Francisco Bay Area CAB demonstrated that empowering community members through direct participation, creating channels and safe spaces for feedback help create community rooted research that carry the true voices of marginalised communities and reflects their evolving needs
