Participatory action research
Lawson, H.A., Caringi, J.S., Pyles, L., Jurkowski, J.M., & Bozlak, C.T. (2015). Participatory action research. New York: Oxford University Press.
As novel, complex social problems increase, especially those involving vulnerable people who reside in challenging places, the limitations of conventional research methods implemented by just one or two investigators become apparent.
Research and development alternatives are needed, particularly methods that engage teams of researchers in real world problem solving while simultaneously generating practice- and policy-relevant knowledge.
Participatory action research (PAR) responds to these manifest needs. It provides a methodological structure and operational guidelines for preparing and deploying people from various walks of life as co-researchers, and it provides a proven strategy for generating practice- and policy-relevant knowledge as problem-solving in real world contexts proceeds. This book:
- Discusses the relationship between PAR and the scientific method.
- Provides distinctions between PAR and other kinds of action research.
- Addresses innovative health PAR initiatives with good results to show.
