A Practical Guide to Study Design with Sex and Gender
in Mind

• Always collect data on sex/gender and compare “men/boys” and “women/girls” for differential outcomes
Tip #1
![Page 5: Gender and Science: Shifting the Paradigm of HIV Research Gender and Science: Shifting the Paradigm of HIV Research Joy Johnson Scientific Director CIHR.](https://reader030.fdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022032518/56649ccd5503460f949984cb/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
• Define your terms – conceptually and operationally
Tip #2
![Page 6: Gender and Science: Shifting the Paradigm of HIV Research Gender and Science: Shifting the Paradigm of HIV Research Joy Johnson Scientific Director CIHR.](https://reader030.fdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022032518/56649ccd5503460f949984cb/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
Male?Female?Other?
Are you?

Consider how you capture sex/genderWe often don’t know how researchers
have determined who was male and who was female and whether they mean sex or genderSelf-report?Observation?Guessing?
Tip #3
![Page 8: Gender and Science: Shifting the Paradigm of HIV Research Gender and Science: Shifting the Paradigm of HIV Research Joy Johnson Scientific Director CIHR.](https://reader030.fdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022032518/56649ccd5503460f949984cb/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
• Theorise about the mechanisms by which sex/gender effect particular health outcomes.– E.g., Biological susceptibility to HIV in
women – prolonged exposure to fluids, tissue injury during intercourse, surface of the cervix particularly vulnerable, bacterial vaginosis etc.
– E.g., Social susceptibility to HIV in women – lack of power, lack of skill in asking partners to use condoms.
Tip #4
![Page 9: Gender and Science: Shifting the Paradigm of HIV Research Gender and Science: Shifting the Paradigm of HIV Research Joy Johnson Scientific Director CIHR.](https://reader030.fdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022032518/56649ccd5503460f949984cb/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
• Explore heterogeneity (across and within sex and gender)
Tip #5
![Page 10: Gender and Science: Shifting the Paradigm of HIV Research Gender and Science: Shifting the Paradigm of HIV Research Joy Johnson Scientific Director CIHR.](https://reader030.fdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022032518/56649ccd5503460f949984cb/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
• Distinguish the effects of gender from “gendered effects.”
Tip #6

• Explore gender bias in your scales and measures
Tip #7
AIDS Depression
Diagnostic Criteria Scale

• Question taken for granted knowledge
Tip #8
![Page 13: Gender and Science: Shifting the Paradigm of HIV Research Gender and Science: Shifting the Paradigm of HIV Research Joy Johnson Scientific Director CIHR.](https://reader030.fdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022032518/56649ccd5503460f949984cb/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
• In pre-clinical work use models that help you capture sex-based effects.
Tip #9
![Page 14: Gender and Science: Shifting the Paradigm of HIV Research Gender and Science: Shifting the Paradigm of HIV Research Joy Johnson Scientific Director CIHR.](https://reader030.fdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022032518/56649ccd5503460f949984cb/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
Act Now for Better Science! • Revisit an earlier study• Augment an existing research plan with a
sex and gender-based analysis• Incorporate sex and gender
considerations from the outset
Tip #10
![Page 15: Gender and Science: Shifting the Paradigm of HIV Research Gender and Science: Shifting the Paradigm of HIV Research Joy Johnson Scientific Director CIHR.](https://reader030.fdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022032518/56649ccd5503460f949984cb/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
Engendering change….

• Sex and gender are everybody’s business.
• Without considering gender and sex, we risk not only misapplying findings, but missing opportunities to improve health.
