  • Competing allegiance in an unclear role

    Open AccessW E Adams, Ryan Duquette et al.ARTICLESSM - Mental Health2023

    Lack of role clarity is a central challenge to the growth and retention of the peer workforce as peer support specialists (PSS) increasingly work alongside non-peer providers in traditional mental healthcare settings. This study examined role clarity among peer and non-peer workers and identifies areas of consensus and disagreement in understanding the peer role. Qualitative interviews were conducted with PSS (N = 18), non-peer direct care staff …

  • Complexities in the process of translating research documents in cross-cultural settings

    Open AccessAnneliese De Wet, Tessa Dowling et al.ARTICLEGlobal Public Health2020

    In multilingual societies, where researchers and participants often do not speak the same language, research is a challenge as a mismatch of understanding between researchers, research instruments and participants often occurs. Reporting on the translation process is crucial because of the potential implications for the validity of the data that follow from it. We aimed to report on the complexities of such a translation process and many consider…

    HIV vaccine efficacy trials require the enrolment of large numbers of HIV-negative individuals and thus it is necessary to engage with communities where HIV incidence is high. We identify some of the caveats and pitfalls associated with researching community engagement in the context of HIV vaccine trials. These are as follows: the lack of consensus of what community engagement is and how it is practiced, the sometimes paradoxical role of communi…

  • The trouble with difference

    Open AccessAnneliese De Wet, L Swartz et al.ARTICLEGlobal Public Health2019

    Community engagement in biomedical trials is to ensure ethical conduct in research, yet it has been criticised regarding power and exploitation of vulnerable communities where trials take place. This makes community engagement processes complex. We report on one example of how the global politics of biomedical research and local issues of contemporary politics and identities intertwine in a community engagement process. These issues emerged durin…

  • Hearing their voices

    Open AccessAnneliese De Wet, L Swartz et al.ARTICLEInternational Journal of Social…2015

    BACKGROUND: Recovery was previously regarded as a somewhat unattainable goal, and the subjective experience was de-emphasised. Lately, the person and his or her experiences are emphasised. MATERIAL: Seven participants were interviewed regarding their experience of recovery from first-episode psychosis in schizophrenia. Data were analysed using interpretative phenomenological analysis (IPA). DISCUSSION: Support and having to care for another are p…
