摘要
The authors interviewed 4 researchers to identify facilitators in recruiting and assessing Latina immigrants. The 4 researchers recruited 530 recent Latina immigrants (ages 18-23 years) for a study of social and cultural determinants of health. Consensual qualitative research methods revealed that respondent-driven sampling was an effective recruitment method. Fear of deportation was a barrier. Stigma about sensitive topics (e.g., sex, drug use) did not affect participation. Findings can help counselors conduct health disparities research. Los autores entrevistaron a 4 investigadores para identificar facilitadores para el reclutamiento y evaluacion de inmigrantes latinas. Los 4 investigadores reclutaron a 530 mujeres latinas que habian inmigrado recientemente (edades entre 18 y 23 anos) para un estudio de los factores sociales y culturales determinantes de la salud. Los metodos de investigacion cuantitativa consensuados revelaron que el muestreo dirigido por las encuestadas fue un metodo efectivo de reclutamiento. El miedo a la deportacion fue un obstaculo. El estigma asociado a temas delicados (p. ej., el sexo, el uso de drogas) no afecto a la participacion. Los hallazgos pueden ayudar a los consejeros a realizar estudios sobre disparidades en la salud.
