Abstract

Purpose: Involving community members in the process of translating scientific evidence into health messaging and interventions can lead to improved health outcomes and more patient-centered healthcare. Community Translation (CT) is one methodology for fostering collaboration between researchers and community members, and it has been shown to result in locally relevant, acceptable solutions to health challenges. There has been very little research on the direct effects that participation may have on community members who become involved in CT. Understanding the mechanisms of CT and its outcomes on participating community members is essential to maximizing the potential of CT. To address this gap, the present study explores processes theorized to be important to the effectiveness of CT.

Methods: Utilizing self-report survey and brief open response data from community partners (N=8) involved in a CT to adapt a family-inclusive lifestyle intervention in the rural Mountain West, we sought to describe change in theorized mechanisms - knowledge, attitudes, and partnership dynamics - and intermediate effectiveness outcomes.

Results: The results indicate that perceived knowledge, attitudes, partnership dynamics, and intermediate effectiveness outcomes all tended to increase across the CT, with intermediate effectiveness outcomes such as group impact, perceived benefits, belonging, and cultural relevance showing the largest changes.

Conclusions: The findings provide preliminary support for the logic model and theoretical basis outlined by the developers of CT, as well as insights for ways to optimize this powerful community-based participatory research methodology.

社区翻译适应全家庭生活方式干预的机制和中间结果:一项试点评估。
目的:让社区成员参与将科学证据转化为卫生信息和干预措施的过程,可导致改善健康结果和更加以患者为中心的卫生保健。社区翻译(CT)是促进研究人员和社区成员之间合作的一种方法,它已被证明能够产生与当地相关的、可接受的卫生挑战解决办法。参与对参与CT的社区成员可能产生的直接影响的研究很少。了解CT的机制及其对参与社区成员的影响对于最大限度地发挥CT的潜力至关重要。为了解决这一差距,本研究探讨了理论上对CT有效性很重要的过程。方法:利用自我报告调查和社区合作伙伴(N=8)的简短公开回应数据,参与CT以适应西部山区农村家庭包容性生活方式干预,我们试图描述理论机制的变化-知识,态度和伙伴关系动态-以及中间有效性结果。结果:认知知识、态度、伙伴关系动态和中间有效性结果均有增加的趋势,其中群体影响、感知利益、归属感和文化相关性等中间有效性结果变化最大。结论:研究结果为CT开发人员概述的逻辑模型和理论基础提供了初步支持,并为优化这一强大的社区参与式研究方法提供了见解。
