Summary
Lived experience researchers have diverse needs during PhDs, falling into three distinct groups. Personalized supervision is crucial, addressing their unique identities, emotional connections to research, and practical challenges.
Area of Science:
- Qualitative Research Methods
- Psychology
- Sociology
Background:
- Lived experience researchers integrate personal health and healthcare experiences into their work.
- They face unique challenges, including competency queries, intersectionality, and epistemic injustice.
- Understanding these experiences is vital for developing tailored supervision.
Purpose of the Study:
- To identify identity-related issues impacting lived experience researchers during PhDs.
- To explore the diverse needs of lived experience researchers regarding supervision.
- To inform the development of personalized supervision strategies.
Main Methods:
- Q methodology was employed to identify key issues for lived experience researchers.
- 18 lived experience researchers participated in the UK-based study.
- Participants prioritized 54 statements related to identity and supervision needs.
Main Results:
- Three distinct factors emerged, representing different researcher profiles.
- Factor 1: Focus on identity strengthening, skills, growth, and empowerment.
- Factor 2: Emphasis on emotional and relational connections to the research.
- Factor 3: Practical and emotional navigation of lived and professional experiences.
Conclusions:
- Lived experience researchers are a heterogeneous group with varied supervision needs.
- Personalized supervision, tailored to individual preferences, is essential.
- Integrating a clinical dimension into supervision can better support these researchers.

15.4K
If you want to understand how behavior occurs, one of the best ways to gain information is to simply observe the behavior in its natural context. However, people might change their behavior in unexpected ways if they know they are being observed. How do researchers obtain accurate information when people tend to hide their natural behavior? As an example, imagine that your professor asks everyone in your class to raise their hand if they always wash their hands after using the restroom. Chances...

Often, psychologists develop surveys as a means of gathering data. Surveys are lists of questions to be answered by research participants, and can be delivered as paper-and-pencil questionnaires, administered electronically, or conducted verbally. Generally, the survey itself can be completed in a short time, and the ease of administering a survey makes it easy to collect data from a large number of people.

Sometimes we want to see how people change over time, as in studies of human development and lifespan. When we test the same group of individuals repeatedly over an extended period of time, we are conducting longitudinal research. Longitudinal research is a research design in which data-gathering is administered repeatedly over an extended period of time. For example, we may survey a group of individuals about their dietary habits at age 20, retest them a decade later at age 30, and then again...

Observational studies are a type of analytical study where researchers observe events without any interventions. In other words, the researcher does not influence the response variable or the experiment's outcome.
There are three types of observational studies – Prospective, retrospective, and cross-sectional.
Prospective Study
Prospective studies, also known as longitudinal or cohort studies, are carried out by collecting future data from groups sharing similar characteristics. One...

Cochran's Q Test is a nonparametric statistical test used to determine if there are potential differences in the outcomes of three or more related groups on a binary (yes/no) or dichotomous outcome. It is essentially an extension of the McNemar Test, which is limited to two related samples - Cochran's Q test can handle three or more related samples, making it more versatile in scenarios where subjects are measured under multiple conditions. The test statistic follows a Chi-Square...
