Abstract

Recruiting women participants with criminal legal system involvement (CLSI) has always presented challenges, whether gaining access to them in prisons and jails or locating them after release. This research brief describes how the COVID-19 pandemic required us to change our recruitment strategies from previously successful approaches to a hybrid strategy using techniques from respondent-driven sampling (RDS) to recruit CLSI women. The RDS techniques, with internet social media, enabled us to capitalize on the community-based social networks of CLSI women to recruit 255 into our clinical trial of a health education intervention. This new avenue for recruitment can be useful beyond pandemic conditions.

在 COVID-19 大流行期间使用受访者驱动抽样法 (RDS) 招募有刑事法律系统介入的妇女 (CLSI)。

招募参与刑事法律系统（CLSI）的女性参与者一直是一项挑战，无论是在监狱和看守所中接触她们，还是在获释后寻找她们，都是如此。本研究简报介绍了 COVID-19 大流行如何要求我们改变招募策略，从以前成功的方法转变为使用受访者驱动抽样 (RDS) 技术招募 CLSI 女性的混合策略。RDS 技术与互联网社交媒体相结合，使我们能够利用 CLSI 妇女基于社区的社交网络，招募 255 名妇女参加我们的健康教育干预临床试验。这种新的招募途径在大流行病条件下也能发挥作用。
