Abstract
Chapter nine is the third of four chapters providing details about the Assessment phase of the Intervention Research Framework. This chapter focuses on the recruitment of a study sample. Consideration is given to the difference stratus of recruitment in the school setting including the system, district and school levels. Interaction with school level gatekeepers, other staff, parents and students is discussed. Factors that support the research process in schools are detailed including: contact of agreement, school-based research coordinator, timing, student absenteeism and planning for change. No specific SHAHRP examples are provided at the end of this chapter as lessons learn from the SHAHRP and other school-based intervention research studies are incorporated within the text of the chapter.
Objectives: By the end of this chapter readers will be able to:
-
Identify the recruitment strata’s for research in educational settings
-
Describe processes for negotiating research involvement in educational settings.
