目标.为了确定加拿大努纳齐亚武特地区纳恩的因纽特人社区的居民希望研究成果如何传播到他们的社区。定性研究采用焦点小组和关键知情人访谈。作为一个更大的食品安全研究的一部分，一个焦点小组进行了狩猎者（n=7）和第二个与一般社区的成员（n=7），以确定以前在社区使用的研究传播策略，并获得有效的和适当的战略，为未来使用的建议。一对一的关键线人采访也进行了与Nain社区成员（n=5）选择他们的见解的研究主题。告密者包括一名教师、一名护士、一名社区长老，以及纳因和努纳齐亚武特政府各一名官员。焦点小组和关键线人访谈的数据进行了合并，并使用主题分析进行分析。开放日被确定为向社区介绍研究成果的首选方法。介绍方法应是互动的、直观的，并以英语和因纽特语介绍。研究成果的传播工作应及时，并应让研究人员和当地官员或社区成员参与，以使研究成果更加有效和相关。如有可能，让青年人参与演讲将增加信息的影响。因纽特人社区首选的信息传播技术与原住民社区研究中的成功技术相呼应。因努伊特人社区今后的知识转化工作应考虑让青年参与介绍，因为他们在社区内具有影响力。(Int J Circumpolar Health 2011; 70（5）：532-541）
Objectives. To determine how residents of the Inuit community of Nain, Nunatsiavut, Canada would like research results disseminated to their community.Study design. Qualitative study using focus groups and key informant interviews.Methods. As part of a larger study on food safety, one focus group was conducted with hunters (n=7) and a second with members of the general community (n=7) to determine research dissemination strategies previously used in the community, and to obtain recommendations for effective and appropriate strategies for future use. One-on-one key informant interviews were also conducted with Nain community members (n=5) selected for their insights on the study themes. Informants included a teacher, a nurse, a community elder, and one official from each of the Nain and Nunatsiavut governments. Data from focus groups and key informant interviews were combined and analysed using thematic analysis.Results. Open houses were identified as the preferred method to present research results to the community. Presentation methods should be interactive, visual and presented in both English and Inuktitut. Research dissemination efforts should be timely and involve both the researcher and a local official or community member to give the results additional validity and relevance. If possible, involving youth in the presentations will increase the impact of the message.Conclusion. Preferred information dissemination techniques in this Inuit community echo successful techniques from research conducted in Aboriginal communities. Future knowledge translation efforts in Inuit communities should consider involving youth in presentations due to their influential nature within the community.
