Area of Science:

  • Rehabilitation Research
  • Disability Studies
  • Policy Development

Background:

  • The National Institute on Disability and Rehabilitation Research (NIDRR) lacked a formal long-range plan for over five years.
  • A strategic research agenda is crucial for advancing disability and rehabilitation research.
  • The absence of a plan hindered structured progress in empowering individuals with disabilities.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To outline the development process of NIDRR's new long-range plan.
  • To define the core components of the plan, including outcome areas, goals, and objectives.
  • To highlight the critical role of research dissemination and participatory research in achieving the plan's aims.

Main Methods:

  • Describing the steps undertaken in creating the long-range plan.
  • Identifying key outcome areas, goals, and objectives for research.
  • Defining and discussing four dissemination strategies: spread, choice, exchange, and implementation.
  • Defining "participatory research" and its significance within the plan.

Main Results:

  • The long-range plan focuses on empowering persons with disabilities to achieve maximum freedom and independence.
  • Research dissemination is identified as a key factor connecting research to empowerment.
  • Four dissemination strategies are outlined, with examples provided.
  • Participatory research is defined and its importance in the plan is established.

Conclusions:

  • The developed long-range plan provides a structured framework for NIDRR's research agenda.
  • Effective dissemination of research findings is essential for empowering individuals with disabilities.
  • The integration of participatory research ensures that the needs of beneficiaries are central to the research process.
