减少白色美国人和种族/少数民族人口之间的健康差距是公共卫生的优先事项。目前无法吸引足够数量的非裔美国人和其他有色人种参加研究是实现这一目标的主要障碍。少数种族/族裔参与干预研究对于制定适当战略促进这些人口的健康尤为重要。本文探讨了干预前会议的有效性，以及非洲裔美国人的研究团队成员和潜在的参与者之间的互动作为招聘策略。还讨论了征聘和促进健康之间的交叉问题。
Decreasing health disparities between White Americans and racial/ethnic minority populations is a public health priority. An ongoing inability to attract sufficient numbers of African Americans and other people of color to participate in research studies is a major barrier to accomplishing this goal. Participation of racial/ethnic minorities in intervention studies is especially critical to the development of appropriate strategies to promote health among these populations. This article examines the effectiveness of preintervention meetings as well as interactions between African American research team members and potential participants as recruitment strategies. Intersections between recruitment and health promotion are also addressed.
