A Multi-Case Study of Understanding Community-Level Ethics at Community-Engaged Research Universities
Lyftogt, Kayla Marie
ProQuest LLC, Ph.D. Dissertation, University of Minnesota
Although the Belmont Report and associated federal regulations were written to protect individual research participants from undue risk and harm, Community-Based Participatory Research teams are concerned about insufficient protection of ethical concerns on a community level. This multi-case study examines the process institutional actors at two community-engaged universities with very high research activity use to understand and respond to community-level ethics. It also examines specific changes that are made to IRB process as a result of this understanding. This study utilizes a conceptual framework based on sensemaking theory to explore these concerns. The key themes that emerged from this study include how environmental cues are a catalyst for IRB sensemaking, how sensemaking forums promote IRB reforms, the ways leaders are gatekeepers or facilitators of sensemaking, the critical role of CBPR experts, and the extent of community-based protections offered through IRB Offices. The final theme is that CPBR ethics ultimately remains in the hands of faculty and staff. These key understandings provide a basis for new insights for theory, practice, and research in an area that has previously received little attention in the field of higher education research.
