The current US political climate towards immigrants introduces new challenges for researchers already struggling to recruit and retain Latino participants in health research. The purpose of this work is to illuminate how current political incivility further deters participation by Latinos in research and present strategies to overcome these challenges.
DESIGN/METHODS: In this discursive piece, we describe how political incivility serves as a proxy for discrimination, discusses the impact of political incivility on health and health outcomes and explores existing knowledge of recruitment and retention strategies in the light of a current, adversely impacted health study with Latinos during the 2016 election season.
Future work should consider the critical contextual factors (including political incivility) faced by Latinos in the US, while continuing to engage in established research strategies such as increasing trust, developing strong community presence, reducing risks (real and perceived) and being thoughtful in research design and implementation.
美国当前针对移民的政治氛围给那些已在努力招募和留住拉丁裔参与者参与健康研究的研究人员带来了新挑战。这项工作的目的是阐明当前的政治不文明行为如何进一步阻碍拉丁裔参与研究,并提出克服这些挑战的策略。
设计/方法:在这篇论述性文章中,我们描述了政治不文明行为如何成为歧视的替代指标,讨论了政治不文明行为对健康及健康结果的影响,并根据2016年选举季期间一项当前受到不利影响的针对拉丁裔的健康研究,探索招募和留住参与者策略的现有知识。
未来的工作应考虑美国拉丁裔面临的关键背景因素(包括政治不文明行为),同时继续采用既定的研究策略,如增强信任、建立强大的社区影响力、降低(实际和感知到的)风险以及在研究设计和实施中深思熟虑。
