Research reporting guidelines are increasingly commonplace and shown to improve the quality of published health research and health outcomes. Despite severe health inequities among Indigenous Peoples and the potential for research to address the causes, there is an extended legacy of health research exploiting Indigenous Peoples. This paper describes the development of the CONSolIDated critERtia for strengthening the reporting of health research involving Indigenous Peoples (CONSIDER) statement.
A collaborative prioritization process was conducted based on national and international statements and guidelines about Indigenous health research from the following nations (Peoples): Australia (Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islanders), Canada (First Nations Peoples, Métis), Hawaii (Native Hawaiian), New Zealand (Māori), Taiwan (Taiwan Indigenous Tribes), United States of America (First Nations Peoples) and Northern Scandinavian countries (Sami). A review of seven research guidelines was completed, and meta-synthesis was used to construct a reporting guideline checklist for transparent and comprehensive reporting of research involving Indigenous Peoples.
A list of 88 possible checklist items was generated, reconciled, and categorized. Eight research domains and 17 criteria for the reporting of research involving Indigenous Peoples were identified. The research reporting domains were: (i) governance; (ii) relationships; (iii) prioritization; (iv) methodologies; (v) participation; (vi) capacity; (vii) analysis and findings; and (viii) dissemination.
The CONSIDER statement is a collaborative synthesis and prioritization of national and international research statements and guidelines. The CONSIDER statement provides a checklist for the reporting of health research involving Indigenous peoples to strengthen research praxis and advance Indigenous health outcomes.
研究报告规范越来越普遍，已被证明可以提高已发表健康研究的质量和健康结果。尽管原住民群体存在严重的健康不平等，而且研究有可能解决这些不平等的根源，但在历史上，健康研究一直存在剥削原住民群体的现象。本文描述了制定《原住民健康研究报告强化统一标准》（CONSIDER）声明的过程。
我们基于以下国家（地区）原住民健康研究的国家和国际声明和指南开展了合作式优先排序流程：澳大利亚（原住民和托雷斯海峡岛民）、加拿大（第一民族、梅蒂斯人）、夏威夷（夏威夷原住民）、新西兰（毛利人）、台湾（台湾原住民部落）、美利坚合众国（第一民族）和北欧国家（萨米人）。我们对 7 份研究指南进行了综述，并采用元综合方法构建了原住民参与研究的透明、全面报告的报告指南核对清单。
生成、协调并分类了 88 项可能的核对清单条目。确定了涉及原住民的研究报告的 8 个研究领域和 17 个标准。这些研究报告领域包括：（i）治理；（ii）关系；（iii）优先级；（iv）方法学；（v）参与；（vi）能力；（vii）分析和结果；以及（viii）传播。
CONSIDER 声明是对国家和国际研究声明和指南的合作式综合和优先排序。CONSIDER 声明为原住民参与的健康研究报告提供了核对清单，以加强研究实践并推进原住民的健康结果。
