Type 2 diabetes (T2D) is prevalent among Asian Americans, yet limited health care studies report on the recruitment and retention of this population. This study focuses on recruiting Chinese American dyads for family support of T2D management.
This is a descriptive study using active and passive recruitment strategies. Dyads consist of parents with T2D and their adult children without diabetes. All materials are culturally tailored and available in Chinese.
The final sample included 54 dyads. There were characteristic differences among parent participants in English language proficiency and education levels. Filial piety manifested as respect and care for one's parents among Chinese American families contributed to recruitment success.
This article shares strategies for recruiting Chinese American dyads to explore family support dynamics for T2D self-management. The findings potentially add to current knowledge about culture, nursing, and health care.
2 型糖尿病（T2D）在亚裔美国人中较为普遍，但有限的医疗保健研究报告了该人群的招募和保留情况。本研究专注于招募华裔美国家庭，以支持 T2D 的管理。
这是一项描述性研究，使用主动和被动招募策略。对子由患有 T2D 的父母和没有糖尿病的成年子女组成。所有材料都经过文化调整，并且有中文版本。
最终样本包括 54 对。父母参与者的英语水平和教育程度存在明显差异。华裔美国家庭中的孝道表现为对父母的尊重和关爱，这有助于招募的成功。
本文分享了招募华裔美国家庭的策略，以探讨 T2D 自我管理的家庭支持动态。研究结果可能为文化、护理和医疗保健领域的现有知识增添内容。
