11. Pre-Engagement
Prior to implementing a study, investigators should
utilize a period of “pre-engagement” when recruiting
research participants and partners.
Allows time to:
• Assure comprehension
• Have questions answered and concerns addressed
• Discuss participation with family and friends
“Pre-engagement” may also apply to other phases of research
