Abstract:
UNASSIGNED: Identification of national research agendas for mental health and disability can be supported by well-designed research priority-setting studies. Few low- and middle-income countries (LMICs) have undertaken such studies.
UNASSIGNED: To identify mental health and disability research priorities in Ghana.
UNASSIGNED: A mixed methods study comprising a rapid review, research priority ranking survey, and research capacity needs assessment survey was employed. Participants in the surveys included five expert pools identified from online search and existing database on mental health civil society organisations/non-governmental organisations. The research priority ranking was completed in two stages, using the Child and Nutrition Research Initiative (CHNRI) method to identify priority questions for immediate and short term (0 to 5 years) and medium to long term (>5 years) in stage two. Both surveys were deployed online using google forms. Analysis for the ranking survey involved computing total scores from the CHNRI criteria and generating ranks for the research questions.
UNASSIGNED: A total of 68 experts (97% response rate), generated 94 and 92 questions for the short and long term, respectively. Forty experts (58% response rate) completed the ranking stage. The top 10 ranked research questions included: 4 questions addressing health systems; 2 questions on epidemiology; and 4 questions on interventions. All research questions were considered urgent and should be conducted in the immediate to short term (0-5 years). The methodological capacity of researchers to conduct disability and mental health research is weak.
UNASSIGNED: Our approach has generated an agenda for mental health and disability research priorities for Ghana and demonstrated that it is feasible to employ a systematic methodology for research priority setting that includes key parameters of context and research capacity.
摘要:
UNASSIGNED:制定国家精神健康和残疾研究议程可以通过精心设计的研究重点研究来支持。很少有低收入和中等收入国家(LMICs)进行过此类研究。
UNASSIGNED:确定加纳的心理健康和残疾研究重点。
未经评估:一项混合方法研究,包括快速审查,研究优先级排名调查,采用研究能力需求评估调查。调查的参与者包括从在线搜索和现有的心理健康民间社会组织/非政府组织数据库中确定的五个专家库。研究优先级排序分两个阶段完成,使用儿童和营养研究倡议(CHNRI)方法,在第二阶段确定近期和短期(0至5年)和中长期(>5年)的优先问题。这两项调查都是使用谷歌表格在线部署的。排名调查的分析涉及根据CHNRI标准计算总分并为研究问题生成排名。
未经评估:共有68位专家(97%的响应率),生成了94个和92个短期和长期问题,分别。40位专家(58%的响应率)完成了排名阶段。排名前10位的研究问题包括:4个涉及卫生系统的问题;2个关于流行病学的问题;和4个关于干预措施的问题。所有研究问题都被认为是紧急的,应该在近期进行(0-5年)。研究人员进行残疾和心理健康研究的方法学能力薄弱。
UNASSIGNED:我们的方法为加纳制定了心理健康和残疾研究优先事项的议程,并表明采用系统的方法来确定研究优先事项是可行的,其中包括背景和研究能力的关键参数。
