I. Introduction
Poor dietary behavior is a risk factor for numerous chronic diseases in Russia and the United States, including:
Cardiovascular disease Stroke Maternal and infant health Diabetes Obesity
I. Introduction
Different research and program approaches are used to understand dietary behaviors in relation to chronic disease risk, with varying success.
Goal: Introduce CBPR as one approach to help address significant diet-related chronic diseases in Russia.
II. Definition: CBPR
A collaborative approach to research that combines methods of inquiry with community capacity-building strategies to bridge the gap between knowledge produced through research and what is practiced in communities to improve health.
…increases the value of studies for both researchers and the community being studied.
Viswanathan et al., 2004
III. Traditional vs. CBPR Approach
Research
Steps
Traditional
Approach
CBPR
Approach1. Identify health concern Based on epidemiologic
evidence and funding priorities.
Involves full participation of community.

Approach
CBPR
Approach1. Identify health concern Based on epidemiologic
evidence and funding priorities.
Involves full participation of community.
2. Design study, seek funding
Design based on scientific rigor and feasibility. Funding requested primarily for research expenses.
Community involved in study design and proposal submission.

3. Recruit participants, implement retention strategy
Based on scientific issues and “best guesses” about recruitment and retention of community members.
Community provides guidance regarding recruitment and retention strategies.
III. Traditional vs. CBPR ApproachResearch

CBPR
Approach4. Design measurement
instruments and collect data
Instruments adopted or adapted from other studies. Tested primarily with psychometric analytic methods.
Instruments developed and pilot tested with community input.

Researchers design intervention based on literature and theory.
Community helps guide intervention development.

6. Analyze and interpret data, disseminate, and translate findings
Researchers report findings from statistical analyses and publish in peer-reviewed journals.
Community assists researchers with interpretation, dissemination, and translation of findings.

IV. Research Example #1: Diabetes
Purpose: Examine self-management practices, knowledge,
and beliefs of Latino patients with type 2 diabetes and their health care practitioners.
Inform development of a diabetes intervention.
Setting: Community-based health clinic.
Study Design: Cross-sectional, descriptive.
IV. Research Example #1: Diabetes
Methods: Two practitioner focus groups Four patient focus groups
Findings: Important knowledge gaps regarding diabetes causation and self-management were identified.
Benefits: Step 1(identify health concerns), Step 5 (design intervention).
Challenge: Extensive time needed to get community input and approval for analysis, interpretation, and publication of results.
IV. Research Example #2: Hypertension
Purpose: Examine knowledge, beliefs, and practices
about hypertension management among older Latino adults.
Inform development of a hypertension intervention.
Setting: Community-based senior center.
Study Design: Descriptive, feasibility.
IV. Research Example #2: Hypertension
Methods: Three focus groups.
Findings: Important knowledge gaps, and beliefs about hypertension management were identified; the role of family and learning style preferences were defined.
Benefits: Step 4 (design measures), Step 5 (design intervention).
Challenge: Lack of experience, confidence, and trust by community members initially limited meaningful input.
IV. Research Example #3: Obesity
Purpose: Marketing-based obesity prevention program for 11-14 year old Latino and White adolescents.
Setting: Two low-income communities.
Study Design: Two-group intervention.
Methods: One-year formative work (interviews and focus groups), four-year community-based intervention.
IV. Research Example #3: Obesity
Findings: Significant increase in food label reading and awareness of food marketing strategies.
Benefits: Step 2 (design study), Step 3 (recruit participants), Step 4 (pilot test measures), Step 5 (design and implement intervention).
Challenges: Perceived community burden. Initial lack of experience by graduate research
assistants.
V. Implications
Community
Increased acceptance.
Greater sensitivity to cultural and social norms.
Increased motivation.
Increased chances for meaningful results.
Researchers
Enhanced recruitment and retention.
Increased measurement validity and reliability.
Increased sustainability.
Increased chances for meaningful results.
V. Implications
In what ways do you see CBPR working to address some of the significant health priorities in Russia?
What benefits do you envision in using CBPR?
What challenges do you envision in using CBPR?
V. Implications
1. Ask: “Is CBPR the right fit for this community and for this research?”
2. Conduct initial research
3. Conduct additional preliminary research
4. Conduct “key informant” interviews
5. Meet with potential partners
6. Plan for sustainability
