Abstract

ABSTRACT Recognising the limited literature detailing the practical application of co-production principles and practices within sport, exercise and health research, critical reflections on co-production principles and practice are shared here, drawing on two participatory action research (PAR) projects in the United Kingdom (UK). Co-production and PAR are distinguished, and their commonalities discussed. Both projects were facilitated by occupational therapists and concerned with health inequities and social justice. The Voices for Inclusive Activity project brought disabled people together online to explore more accessible and inclusive approaches to evaluate disability sport and physical activity. The Positive Mental Attitude project took place with a community-based football league for people with experience of mental distress and explored the nature and value of participation. Both projects involved researching with people who are often excluded from research. Addressing power imbalances can function to engage marginalised people in processes of knowledge production and enable social justice. Co-production offers useful principles that are democratic, inclusive, collaborative, and participatory, but the process is not straightforward. The reflections within this paper focus on the challenges and opportunities the first and second authors faced as facilitators of co-produced research. Participant and co-researcher quotes reveal how participatory methods and approaches address gaps in experiential knowledge of exclusion and marginalisation. The potential for co-produced research to influence policy and practice is outlined.
共同行动:促进与边缘化人群共同开展参与性行动研究的思考
摘要认识到在体育、锻炼和健康研究中详细介绍共同生产原则和实践的有限文献,本文借鉴英国的两个参与性行动研究(标准杆数)项目,分享了对共同生产原则与实践的批判性思考。区分了共生产和标准杆数,并讨论了它们的共性。这两个项目都得到了职业治疗师的协助,并关注健康不平等和社会正义。“包容活动之声”项目将残疾人聚集在一起,探索更方便、更包容的方法来评估残疾人体育和体育活动。积极心态项目是与一个以社区为基础的足球联盟一起为有精神痛苦经历的人举办的,并探讨了参与的性质和价值。这两个项目都涉及到与那些经常被排除在研究之外的人进行研究。解决权力失衡问题可以使边缘化人群参与知识生产过程,实现社会正义。合作制作提供了民主、包容、协作和参与的有用原则,但过程并不简单。本文中的反思集中在第一作者和第二作者作为联合制作研究的推动者所面临的挑战和机遇上。参与者和联合研究者的语录揭示了参与式方法和方法如何解决排斥和边缘化的经验知识差距。概述了联合研究对政策和实践产生影响的潜力。
