This study used focus-group discussions in response to a video vignette to examine attitudes toward recruitment for nonintervention research involving HIV testing. Participants were 100 ethnically diverse, economically disadvantaged urban drug users, who were recruited from New York City and Hartford, Connecticut in the spring and summer of 2006. Content analyses revealed themes including (1) fears of stigma and legal trouble balanced by trustworthiness of the recruiter; (2) fears of learning one's HIV status balanced by prospects for health benefits, and (3) the right to receive fair monetary compensation balanced by risks of coercion during periods of cravings. Limitations and implications for recruitment practices have been discussed here.
本研究采用焦点小组讨论的方式,针对一段视频片段,调查了人们对涉及 HIV 检测的非干预性研究招募的态度。参与者是 100 名来自纽约市和康涅狄格州哈特福德市的、种族多样、经济贫困的城市吸毒者,他们是在 2006 年春季和夏季招募的。内容分析揭示了以下主题:(1)对污名化和法律麻烦的恐惧与对招募者的信任相平衡;(2)对了解自己 HIV 状况的恐惧与对健康益处的期望相平衡;(3)接受公平货币补偿的权利与在渴望时期受到胁迫的风险相平衡。这里讨论了招募实践的局限性和意义。
