Preconceptions, power and position: researcher reflections on public involvement in research Katherine Pollard, David Evans, Jane Dalrymple Margaret Miers, Pam Moule, Judith Thomas

Public involvement in UK health and social care (H&SC) research DH (2005) – service users/carers/public should be actively involved in ‘design, conduct, analysis and reporting of research’ NIHR increasingly requires evidence of active public involvement when commissioning research INVOLVE – established in 1996 to promote public involvement in H&SC research (renamed in 2003)

Public involvement in H&SC research at UWE Service Users and Carers in Research committee (SUCIR) in the Faculty of Health and Life Sciences: Established in September 2008 Formal launch in June 2009

Three examples of UWE projects with public involvement National evaluation of Pacesetters local initiatives for improving health status Engagement in the co-production of knowledge for knowledge exchange in health and social care Development of an attitude scale to measure user- responsiveness in an interprofessional context

Researcher attitudes to public involvement in H&SC research Some health and social care professionals generally opposed to public involvement in H&SC delivery (Campbell 2001, Rowe & Shepherd 2002, Florin & Dixon 2004, Nathan et al 2006) Limited research about public involvement in HSC research (Staley 2009) Little known about underlying researcher attitudes - found to be complex in 1 study (Thompson et al 2009)

UWE researchers’ reflections Six UWE researchers provided written answers to three questions concerning : –their own preconceptions about the topic –their perceptions of relevant power issues –the positions they adopt to optimise research outputs Other issues also identified in their replies

Preconceptions Extent of public involvement –Lack of awareness of spectrum of involvement, thinking in terms of consultation –Issues of control; who makes decisions? What is research? –Understanding of issues –Assumption of superior knowledge; whose knowledge base is valued? –Research as a defined process

Power Complexity ─Traditional power balance ─Status and hierarchies ─Enabling power Limited power of academics ─Wider political agendas ─Organisational priorities/constraints

Positions Personal level –More likely to ensure own contribution –Tailor things to service users –Line of least resistance Organisational level –Focus on institutional systems –Creating opportunities for involvement

Logistics Added layer of complexity Hard work Time consuming Resource issues Is involvement sustainable?

Other key points Researcher self-awareness –gap between commitment and practice –not taking things for granted, e.g. access to resources Representativeness – what does this mean? Use of narrative methods

Conclusions Need to question assumptions: –what does involvement actually entail? –whose knowledge matters? –what is research? Power balance Logistics Need for reflection and self-awareness

End note One reflection on the experience of working with SU1 and C1 is that it was fun, enjoyable, enlightening. (R3)
