Zusammenfassung
Ziel der Studie Die Ziele dieses Projektes waren ein Forschungstraining (1) zu entwickeln und (2)
zu evaluieren.
Methodik Die Inhalte und Methoden wurden in 5 partizipativen Treffen ausgearbeitet. Das Forschungstraining
wurde anschließend für 2 Gruppen mit N = 28 Teilnehmern durchgeführt.
Ergebnisse Das Interesse an Forschung hat sich durch das Training nicht verändert, jedoch zeigten
sich Effekte hinsichtlich des forschungsbezogenen Empowerments.
Schlussfolgerung Das Training wurde insgesamt positiv bewertet. Eine Verbreitung und Weiterentwicklung
des Trainings ist geplant.
Abstract
Objective Participation of mental health services users in research is increasingly acknowledged
in Germany. Principles for successful involvement include research training for service
users. The aims of the project were (1) to develop and (2) to evaluate a research
training.
Methods The research training was developed in five participatory meetings and piloted with
28 participants. They answered questions on the research training and about their
interest in research, research-related empowerment and research participation.
Results Interest in research did not change. But there is a difference between research-related
empowerment before (t1) and after (t2) the research training (z = – 2.237; p = 0.025). The number of participants registered in scientific studies increased from
4 (t1) to 8 three months later (t3) whereas the number of participants reporting own
research ideas decreased from 7 (t1) to 5 (t3).
Conclusion Although interest has not been affected, the evaluation shows significant effects
on research-related empowerment in participants. Results concerning transfer are divergent.
However, feedback was positive. We are planning to disseminate and refine the training.
