What are the Challenges in Participant Recruitment?
Recruiting participants can be fraught with challenges. Some common issues include:
- Lack of Awareness: Potential participants may not know about the study or its importance. - Mistrust: Individuals might be skeptical of research intentions, especially in communities with historical injustices. - Logistical Barriers: Transportation, time commitments, and financial costs can deter participation. - Eligibility Criteria: Strict inclusion and exclusion criteria can limit the pool of eligible participants.
