Webinar: Effectively Measuring Trust and Trustworthiness in Research Among Minoritized Racial and Ethnic Groups

Lack of trust in research and concerns about the trustworthiness of researchers and research institutions are commonly cited barriers to enrolling in research studies. Trust in biomedical research has been lower among minoritized racial and ethnic groups who have been historically underrepresented and excluded from research. Effectively measuring trust in biomedical research requires instruments that include content areas reflecting minoritized racial and ethnic populations’ definitions and perceptions of trust. We developed the Perceptions of Research Trustworthiness (PoRT) Scale, a validated tool to measure trust in biomedical research that is relevant across Black, Latino, and White communities, including those with lower educational attainment. The goal is to more accurately measure trust and subsequently enable strategies aimed at increasing trust and trustworthiness to be evaluated and monitored.
