Participatory approaches to research are gaining popularity in health and wellness disciplines because of their potential to bridge gaps between research and practice and promote health equity. A number of guidelines have been developed to help research-practitioners gauge the quality of participatory health research (PHR). In light of the increasing popularization of this approach in the field of public health, there is a need to check in with current practitioners to see if their practices are still reflective of past guidelines. The aim of this study was to understand how research-practitioners currently conceptualize the quality of participatory health research in particular. Using phenomenographic inquiry, we interviewed 13 researchers who described their experience of PHR. We identified 15 categories of description and visually represented the relationship between the categories using an outcome space. Our findings suggest that conceptualizations of what is considered high quality PHR have remained consistent. This reliability bodes well for the development of quality criteria for participatory health research. We discuss implications for scaling up this study to compare quality criteria beyond a North American context. (author's abstract)... view less

Partizipative Ansätze erfreuen sich in den Gesundheitswissenschaften zunehmender Beliebtheit infolge ihres Potenzials, Forschung und Praxis näher zusammenzubringen. In diesem Zusammenhang sind verschiedene Leitlinien entwickelt worden, um Forschenden zu helfen, die Qualität partizipativer Gesundheitsforschung (PGF) zu bewerten. Hiervon ausgehend entsteht ein Bedarf, die Güte dieser Leitlinien im Lichte aktueller Forschung zu reflektieren. Wir wollten deshalb wissen, wie die Qualität von PGF im Feld selbst konzeptualisiert wird und haben 13 Forschende in einer phänomenografischen Studie zu ihren Erfahrungen mit PGF befragt. Insgesamt haben wir 15 Kategorien identifiziert, deren Beziehung wir in diesem Beitrag auch visuell zu veranschaulichen versuchen. Die Ergebnisse legen nahe, dass die Dimensionen, die für die Zuschreibung hoher Qualität verantwortlich sind, vergleichsweise stabil (geblieben) sind. Diese Verlässlichkeit ist u.E. vielversprechend mit Blick auf die Entwicklung von Qualitätskriterien für PGF. Wir diskutieren abschließend auch Implikationen, die bedacht werden müssen, wenn Untersuchungen außerhalb des nordamerikanischen Kontextes mit dem Ziel eines internationalen Vergleichs stattfinden sollen.
