R4: Abstract

There is a severe dearth of investigations focused on the identification of culturally-driven factors influencing the choice of rehabilitation research as a career. As a direct consequence, public opinion of relevant issues is highly stereotypical and largely misleading. Therefore, the purpose of this research is to systematically identify the perceptual factors that influence perception of disability research among minority scholars and innovative culturally appropriate methods of outreaching, recruiting, training, and retaining individuals from diverse ethnicity in rehabilitation research.
