“…13,14 Our 7-year history presents a different timeline of processes than a “traditional” research approach in which the academic PI controls problem identification, selection and implementation of interventions, and progression of the project. The development of our Peer Navigator training manual took several months as various members of the Task Force took primary responsibility, based on their expertise, for writing sections of the manual.…”

Background Recent trends indicate research targeting outcomes of importance to people with disabilities, such as spinal cord injury (SCI), may be best informed by those individuals; however, there are very few published rehabilitation intervention studies that include people with disabilities in the research process in a role beyond study participant. Objective To describe a community-based participatory research (CBPR) approach to the development and pilot testing of an intervention using community-based Peer Navigators with SCI to provide health education to individuals with SCI, with the goal of reducing preventable secondary conditions and rehospitalizations, and improving community participation. Methods A CBPR framework guides the research partnership between academic researchers and a community-based team of individuals who either have SCI or provide SCI-related services. Using this framework, the processes of our research partnership supporting the current study are described including: partnership formation, problem identification, intervention development, and pilot testing of the intervention. Challenges associated with CBPR are identified. Results Using CBPR, the SCI Peer Navigator intervention addresses the partnership’s priority issues identified in the formative studies. Utilization of the framework and integration of CBPR principles into all phases of research have promoted sustainability of the partnership. Recognition of and proactive planning for challenges that are commonly encountered in CBPR, such as sharing power and limited resources, has helped sustain our partnership. Conclusions The CBPR framework provides a guide for inclusion of individuals with SCI as research partners in the development, implementation, and evaluation of interventions intended to improve outcomes after SCI.

Advancing Medical Family Therapy Through Research: A Consideration of Qualitative, Quantitative, and Mixed-Methods Designs

et al. 2012

To survive in today's healthcare climate, stakeholders across all mental health disciplines must work to produce empirical evidence that earns their fields' regard by educators, providers, and policy makers. As the field of Medical Family Therapy (MedFT) answers this call, it will be important for researchers to clearly define, characterize, and assess MedFT practice across clinical, operational, and financial arenas of care. In this account, we propose a common lexicon from which to do this, highlighting the following core tenets of MedFT: systems theory, biopsychosocial-spiritual sensitivity in practice, agency, communion, interdisciplinary collaboration, and the three-world model of healthcare. We conclude by offering concrete ways to advance the MedFT research agenda using qualitative, quantitative, and mixed-method approaches.Keywords Collaborative family healthcare Á Integrated healthcare Á Medical Family Therapy Á Research agenda Á Research methods Over the past two decades, Medical Family Therapy (MedFT) has emerged as a distinctive subspecialty of Marriage and Family Therapy. Since its foundation, MedFT has adapted and evolved in response to the dynamic and ever-changing landscapes of healthcare, including the advent of healthcare maintenance organizations, the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act, and recent calls for patient-centered medical homes. These shifts in care contexts have presented both challenges and opportunities for the development of innovative disciplines with practitioners who specialize in collaborative care. To survive in today's healthcare climate, all mental health disciplines must work harder to produce empirical evidence that contributes to the body of knowledge about the respective and overlapping effectiveness of treatment approaches to earn favor by educators, providers, and policy makers. As we work to answer this call, researchers must clearly define, characterize, and assess MedFT across clinical, operational, and financial arenas of practice. To this end, the two-fold purpose of this paper is: (1) to establish/confirm a lexicon for MedFT research, and (2) to identify research methods (qualitative, quantitative, and mixedmethods) that bear promise to advance the field of MedFT.

“…CBPR is typically implemented when researchers want to increase community involvement in important aspects of research, from question development to dissemination of results (Israel, Schulz, Parker, & Becker, 1998; McKay, Hibbert, et al, 2007; Pinto, Spector, & Valera, 2011). The community organization model of critical consciousness underlies CBPR by emphasizing the importance of equalizing hierarchical relationships for the advancement of knowledge that can be applied to address the needs of communities (Strickland, 2006). Freire's (1970/2000) critical consciousness theory provided a participatory approach to learning that shifted the power dynamics of education to engage the learner and the teacher as cocre-ators of knowledge.…”

This article provides a case study evaluating the structure and dynamic process of a Community Collaborative Board that had the goal of creating an evidence-based substance abuse/health intervention for previously incarcerated individuals. Meeting agendas, attendance, minutes, video recording of meetings, and in-depth interviews with 13 Community Collaborative Board members were used to conduct an independent process evaluation. Open coding identified quotes exemplifying specific themes and/or patterns across answers related to the desired domain. Several themes were identified regarding membership engagement, retention, and power distribution. Results showed member retention was due to strong personal commitment to the targeted problem. Analysis also revealed an unequal power distribution based on participants' background. Nevertheless, the development of an innovative, community-based health intervention manual was accomplished. Aspects of the process, such as incentives, subcommittees, and trainings, enhanced the Board's ability to integrate the community and scientific knowledge to accomplish its research agenda. Community-based participatory research was a useful framework in enhancing quality and efficiency in the development of an innovative, substance abuse/health intervention manual for distressed communities. Overall, this article sheds light on a process that illustrates the integration of community-based and scientific knowledge to address the health, economic, and societal marginalization of low-income, minority communities.
