Abstract
In this paper, we suggest that participatory research (PR) is neither a research methodology, nor uniquely associated with qualitative methods, but rather an approach to research through which stakeholders can implement quantitative, qualitative or mixed methods study designs. By illustrating three partnerships retained in our recent systematic review of PR, we highlight issues involved in partnered quantitative research. Examples demonstrate that commitment to dialogue and consensus building among partnership stakeholders is key to ensuring that methods generate scientifically valid research without creating community harm, loss of reputation, stigma or without generating feelings of denial, betrayal and exclusion.
Keywords:
- community-based participatory research,
- quantitative research methods,
- randomized controlled trials,
- quasi-experimental studies,
- negociation
Résumé
Nous suggérons que la Recherche Participative (RP) n’est pas une méthodologie et n’est pas associée uniquement à des méthodes qualitatives. La RP est plutôt une approche de recherche où les acteurs peuvent utiliser des méthodes quantitatives, qualitatives ou mixtes. Afin d’illustrer certains aspects des méthodes quantitatives en RP, nous présentons trois projets inclus dans notre revue systématique de la littérature en RP. Ces exemples montrent que s’engager dans un processus de dialogue et de consensus est crucial afin d’assurer que les méthodes de recherche employées soient valides, mais pas aux dépens des membres des communautés (par ex., stigmatisation).
Mots-clés :
