影响招募和保留非洲裔美国人参加研究的因素还不是很清楚。研究表明,在临床试验和其他护理研究中,他们的人数仍然很低,然而,非裔美国人的疾病、疾病和死亡的发生率不成比例地高,这是他们被纳入正在进行的研究的一个重要原因。两项对老年非裔美国人参与者的城市、社区干预研究被用来展示在招聘和留住方面的不同问题和策略。研究中的样本选择和损耗经验用三种理论方法进行了检验。六个概念是成功招募和留住不同人口群体的基础:(1)历史认知;(2)制裁;(3)建立信任;(4)互惠;(5)承认异质性;(6)研究人员的自我反省和自省。版权所有(C)2000,由W.B.Saunders公司提供。
Factors influencing the recruitment and retention of African Americans into research studies are not well understood. Studies show that their numbers continue to be low in clinical trials and other nursing studies, However, African Americans have disproportionately high incidences of disease, illness, and death, an important reason for their inclusion in ongoing research. Two urban, community-based intervention studies with elderly African American participants are used to show different issues and strategies in recruitment and retention. The sample selection and attrition experiences in the studies are examined using 3 theoretical approaches. Six concepts emerge as fundamental to successful recruitment and retention of diverse population groups: (1) historical cognizance; (2) sanctioning; (3) trust-building; (4) mutuality; (5) recognition of heterogeneity; and (6) researcher self-reflection and introspection.
