A National Collaborative Study of Community-Based Processes for Research Ethics R

描述（由申请人提供）：基于社区的参与式研究（CBPR）越来越多地被NIH，研究人员和社区团体认为是理解和解决种族，民族，社会经济和环境健康差异的关键。因此，更多的社区团体正在接触研究人员，他们希望在他们所服务或可以接触的社区进行研究，更多的社区团体正在发起自己的研究。 越来越多的社区团体制定了程序，以确定是否参与或支持在其社区进行的研究。我们之前的研究确定并描述了其中109个在美国运营，30个在开发中。我们已经聘请了五个社区团体参与我们之前的研究作为合作伙伴，对他们的研究审查过程进行深入的案例研究。在此过程中，我们试图了解他们的研究审查中出现的研究道德和诚信问题，以及他们在确保其社区进行的研究的道德和诚信方面的作用。通过查看案例研究，我们将确定社区团体，研究人员和研究机构可以实施的有前途的做法，以确保CBPR的道德和诚信。

DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): Community-based participatory research (CBPR) is increasingly recognized by NIH, researchers and community groups as critical to understanding and addressing racial, ethnic, socioeconomic and environmental health disparities. As a result, more community groups are being approached by researchers who want to conduct research in the communities they serve or have access to, and more community groups are initiating their own research studies. A growing number of community groups have developed processes for determining whether to participate in or support a study that takes place in their community. Our prior study identified and described 109 of these operating across the United States and 30 in development. We have engaged five of the community groups that participated in our prior study as partners in conducting in-depth case studies of their research review processes. In doing so, we seek to understand the research ethics and integrity issues that arise in their research reviews, and their role in ensuring the ethics and integrity of the research conducted in their communities. By looking across the case studies, we will identify promising practices that community groups, researchers, and research institutions can put in place to ensure the ethics and integrity of CBPR.
