Dissemination is a key component of translational research. However, research participants rarely receive findings from the studies in which they have participated. Funding agencies have a significant amount of influence to promote research dissemination through requirements, recommendations, and tools. However, it is not clear to what extent current funding agencies promote dissemination to study participants.Purpose of Article: A review of major health research funders was conducted to ascertain the current policies, recommendations, and tools related to 1) academic dissemination, 2) lay community dissemination, and 3) returning results to research participants.
Several agencies have policies, recommendations, and tools for academic dissemination; however, few have the same policies, recommendations, and tools for dissemination to research participants and the lay communities they are recruited from.
Funding agencies have a unique opportunity to encourage the dissemination of research results to research participants and lay community audiences by developing policies to increase dissemination of grantees' research findings.
传播是转化研究的关键组成部分。然而,研究参与者很少能收到他们所参与研究的结果。资助机构通过要求、建议和工具对促进研究传播具有重大影响力。然而,目前资助机构在多大程度上促进向研究参与者传播尚不清楚。文章目的:对主要健康研究资助者进行了审查,以确定与以下方面相关的现行政策、建议和工具:1)学术传播;2)向普通社区传播;3)向研究参与者反馈结果。
几个机构有学术传播的政策、建议和工具;然而,很少有机构对向研究参与者及其所招募的普通社区传播有同样的政策、建议和工具。
资助机构有独特的机会通过制定政策以增加受资助者研究结果的传播,来鼓励将研究结果传播给研究参与者和普通社区受众。
