The purpose of this follow-up 2003 3-City Tuskegee Legacy Project (TLP) Study was to validate or refute our prior findings from the 1999-2000 4 City TLP Study, which found no evidence to support the widely acknowledged "legacy" of the Tuskegee Syphilis Study (TSS), ie, that blacks are reluctant to participate in biomedical studies due to their knowledge of the TSS. The TLP Questionnaire was administered in this random-digit-dial telephone survey to a stratified random sample of 1162 black, white, and Puerto Rican Hispanic adults in 3 different US cities. The findings from this current 3-City TLP Study fail to support the widely acknowledged "legacy" of the TSS, as awareness of the TSS was not statistically associated with the willingness to participate in biomedical studies. These findings, being in complete agreement with our previous findings from our 1999-2000 4-City TLP, validate those prior findings.
这项2003年三城市塔斯基吉遗产项目(TLP)后续研究的目的是验证或反驳我们在1999 - 2000年四城市TLP研究中的先前发现,该研究未发现证据支持广泛认可的塔斯基吉梅毒研究(TSS)“遗产”,即黑人因知晓TSS而不愿参与生物医学研究。在这项随机数字拨号电话调查中,TLP问卷被发放给美国三个不同城市的1162名黑、白、波多黎各裔西班牙裔成年人的分层随机样本。当前这项三城市TLP研究的结果未能支持广泛认可的TSS“遗产”,因为对TSS的知晓与参与生物医学研究的意愿在统计学上并无关联。这些发现与我们1999 - 2000年四城市TLP的先前发现完全一致,从而验证了那些先前的发现。
