FIT 4 PURPOSE : designing and distributing the Women with Traumatic Brain Injury Survey

Research output: Contribution to journalArticlepeer-review

Abstract

People with impairment following injury and illness are often excluded from participating in research due to a range of environmental and physical issues. Advancements in computer literacy and the community uptake of social media platforms such as Facebook™ and Twitter™ enables researchers and clinicians to reach a much broader cross-section of the community. This, in turn, means that people with impairment may not be as marginalised from making a contribution to and participating in research. This paper describes how the Women with Traumatic Brain Injury Survey was both designed and distributed to enable greater accessibility to women with traumatic brain injury. A framework for how research design can increase inclusion and how this can be replicated by rehabilitation nurses across a variety of contexts is also provided.
