一系列与公众参与健康研究相关的实证研究已经出现。迄今为止，很少有研究探讨同性恋和双性恋男性参与行为监测研究的具体观点，其中包括捐赠唾液拭子以调查艾滋病毒感染率和未确诊艾滋病毒的比率。对参与酒吧调查的苏格兰 29 名同性恋和双性恋男子进行了半结构化访谈。对男性对其参与动机的描述以及他们对未收到有关艾滋病毒状况的个人反馈的看法的专题分析表明，人们对参与研究作为促进“社区”努力防止艾滋病毒传播的一种手段有共同的理解。大多数男性对行为研究的目的表达了深刻的理解，并区分了行为研究和个人诊断测试。尽管广泛呼吁对艾滋病毒结果提供反馈，但对于这些男性来说，对艾滋病毒状况的反馈并不被认为是至关重要的。
An array of empirical research has emerged related to public participation in health research. To date, few studies have explored the particular perspectives of gay and bisexual men taking part in behavioural surveillance research, which includes the donation of saliva swabs to investigate HIV prevalence and rates of undiagnosed HIV. Semi-structured interviews were conducted with twenty-nine gay and bisexual men in Scotland who had participated in a bar-based survey. Thematic analysis of men’s accounts of their motives for participation and their perceptions of not receiving individual feedback on HIV status suggested a shared understanding of participation in research as a means of contributing to ‘community’ efforts to prevent the spread of HIV. Most men expressed sophisticated understandings of the purpose of behavioural research and distinguished between this and individual diagnostic testing. Despite calls for feedback on HIV results broadly, for these men feedback on HIV status was not deemed crucial.
