Strategies to engage systematically marginalized youth and their families in research using high-tech methods. Advances in Nursing Science, 10.1097. http//doi.org/10.1097/ANS.000000000000042135499466https://hdl.handle.net/1805/38093The purpose of this study was to identify facilitators and barriers for engaging youth and families from a historically and systematically marginalized community in high-tech research. Adapting community-based participatory research principles, 4 focus groups were conducted with 13 youth and 12 parents. Using codebook thematic analysis, 5 facilitator themes (develop skills, ensure health, build understanding, promote safety, and help others, youth-initiated interest) and 4 barrier themes (anxiety and fear, skepticism, confusion, and unfamiliar/unknown experience) were identified. Youth and parent responses informed proposed guidelines for recruiting and engaging families in research using high-tech methods, particularly those from historically and systematically marginalized communities.en-USyouthmarginalized poulationsresearch subject recruitmentfunctional magnetic resonance imagingheart rate variabilityArticle
