SUMMARY:Online Workshop: Why People Say Yes (or No): The Psychology of Trial Participation\, with Cherish Boxall.
DESCRIPTION:About the workshop\n\n\n\nThis online workshop applies behavioural science to the real-world decisions people make about taking part in research. You’ll be introduced to fast\, automatic thinking (System 1) and slow\, deliberate thinking (System 2) and use them to map key decision points across the recruitment journey. You’ll identify what can drive early awareness and interest in research\, and what supports a confident\, well-informed decision at consent\, so the recruitment pathway can be designed to be both effective and ethically robust. \n\n\n\nThe workshop includes short reflective exercises to increase awareness of how unconscious bias\, assumptions\, and “snap judgements” can influence the behaviour of research staff. You will leave with practical actions to help move unconscious bias into conscious awareness to help support informed\, inclusive research design. \n\n\n\nLimited spaces\, register below: \n\n\n\n\n\nBy the end of the workshop\, you will be able to:\n\n\n\n\nIdentify common cognitive biases and where they can show up in recruitment and consent pathways.\n\n\n\nRecognise how cultural and social influences can affect decision-making. \n\n\n\nExplore your own decision-making defaults and use simple techniques to bring fast judgments into awareness.\n\n\n\nApply behavioural science to design clearer\, more motivating participant communications (e.g.\, recruitment adverts).\n\n\n\n\nPreparation and what to expect\n\n\n\nMost activities are individual reflection and applied work guided by our resource pack\, with optional chat sharing. \n\n\n\nBefore you join (5–10 minutes): \n\n\n\nHave the pack open or printed (sent by email). \n\n\n\nPlease come with a current or recent study in mind (including your target population and a high-level recruitment approach) to anchor the activities \n\n\n\nWhat you will leave with\n\n\n\n2–3 behaviour-based strategies to test in your study \n\n\n\nBias “pause points” to strengthen inclusive decision-making \n\n\n\nA map of System 1 vs System 2 moments in your recruitment pathway \n\n\n\nAbout the trainer:\n\n\n\nCherish Boxall\, founder of Engage Intelligently\, and recipient of two consecutive NIHR Fellowships\, brings a behavioural-science lens to over 15 years of experience securing competitive research funding and delivering clinical trials. She specialises in translating evidence on inclusion and participant behaviour into practical\, effective strategies. Expect real-world examples\, actionable takeaways\, and plenty of time throughout the session for your questions. \n\n\n\nWho should attend?\n\n\n\nResearch and staff affiliated with Barts\, Birmingham\, Cambridge\, Moorfields\, Oxford\, and Oxford Health Biomedical Research Centres who want to strengthen inclusive recruitment and retention. \n\n\n\nIf you have any questions with regards to this training\, please contact: Mili Kalia (Oxford BRC’s EDI Manager)\, Email: Mili.Kalia@ouh.nhs.uk     \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nThis is the third session in our Spring online series of Inclusivity Training for Health and Care Researchers. Please note\, we are repeating this series in the Summer Term. \n\n\n\nWe’ve collaborating with five other NIHR Biomedical Research Centres: Oxford Health\, Barts\, Birmingham\, Cambridge\, Moorfields\, to bring you a series of engaging online training sessions with experts and researchers to help embed inclusion in your research \n\n\n\nFull Spring Series poster below – more to follow in Summer Term. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nThese sessions are for research staff affiliated with the following Biomedical Research Centres: Barts\, Birmingham\, Cambridge\, Moorfields\, Oxford and Oxford Health \n\n\n\nPrivacy Notice: We adhere to the UK’s Data Protection Act 2018-https://ico.org.uk/for-organisations/data-protection-and-the-eu/data-protection-and-the-eu-in-detail/the-uk-gdpr/.
