Community-based participatory research (CBPR) that improves social capital can be a powerful tool for promoting mental health and well-being. This work explores what gaining, maintaining, and losing a...
I describe and reflect on my experiences conducting a mixed-methods study of an existing CBPR to increase social capital in Switzerland. I draw on ethnographic observations, field notes, and reflexive...
I negotiated access to the CBPR across three levels: (1) formal organizational with intervention leaders, (2) implementational with facilitators, and (3) the community/group level with participants. I...
I highlight how access is a fluid and complex process that can change throughout CBPR. I show the importance of reflexive analysis to understand how access is negotiated in diverse settings, what sour...
TEEN HEED (Help Educate to Eliminate Diabetes) is a community-based youth participatory action research (YPAR) study in which prediabetic adolescents from a predominantly low-income, non-white neighbo...
We conducted 44 individual in-depth interviews with representatives from six stakeholder groups (study participants, peer leaders, study interns and coordinators, and younger and older community actio...
Dominant themes identified were: 1) YPAR principles and engagement, 2) Youth engagement through peer education, 3) Challenges and motivations for research participation, 4) Study improvements and sust...
Emergent themes from this study provided insights on the value of youth participation in research and informed recommendations for future YPAR studies....
The high prevalence of hypertension calls for broad, multisector responses that foster prevention and care services, with the goal of leveraging high-quality treatment as a means of reducing hypertens...

A total of 16 stakeholders participated in the workshops (mean [SD] age, 46.5 [8.6] years; 9 [56.3%] male). Training of health care workers was estimated to be the most effective single implementation...
This decision analytical model study showed that community-based participatory research could be used to estimate the potential effectiveness of interventions for improving retention in hypertension c...
Even though, there is a particularly high prevalence of depression among individuals from the hill tribes in northern Thailand, they are unable to receive appropriate intervention due to cultural, tra...
Participants include people with depression (n = 17) who were chosen based on their mild to moderately severe depression scores on the Patient Health Questionnaire 9-item (PHQ-9 scores of 5-19) and th...
The depression scores on the PHQ-9 of 12 participants improved significantly (11.92 ± 1.08 vs. 3.08 ± 0.51; p = 0.002) following participation in the self-help group. Increased self-esteem and improve...
A model for depression care was tested in a hill tribe community, and its effectiveness was clearly observed. The developed model can be applied to other hill tribe communities in northern Thailand to...

This scoping review analyses the literature on community-based participatory research (CBPR)-based cardiovascular disease (CVD) management programmes, examining the key elements of their development a...
This scoping review's methodology had six stages: 1) identifying the research question; 2) identifying relevant studies-search strategy; 3) study selection; 4) charting the data; 5) collating, summari...
Among the key aspects of such programmes were the many cases where community organisations led establishment of partnerships and cases where a decision-making committee was formed. Regarding applicati...
Improvement strategies are needed to allow implementation of CBPR principles in a CBPR-based CVD management programme. Moreover, further verification of programme evaluation research methods is needed...
