Assessing the quality of online resources for inclusive research methods: Insights from a 2024 rapid review

New academic researchers need resources to effectively learn how to conduct inclusive research and meaningfully engage co-researchers with intellectual and developmental disabilities. This rapid review aims to address: What online resources are available in 2024 for new academic researchers seeking to learn about inclusive research methods and what is the quality of those resources based on a set of criteria for assessing quality in inclusive research? A search of the literature was conducted. In total, 11 resources were included. A checklist with 11 items was developed to assess the quality of these resources. Results suggest a range of checklist criteria met among the resources. Among the 11 checklist items, some were consistently met while others were frequently overlooked. This study brings to light a need for addressing how senior academic researchers make resources for complex research methods available to others. Additionally, it demonstrates the importance of developing comprehensive, self-paced training with implementation support.
