 The objective of this study was to examine the baseline, 60-day and 120-day follow-up trust in research and researchers of Floridians aged 60 years and older involved in the University of Florida's Health Street Community Engagement Initiative. The study population consisted of 2,193 older adults who were assessed by Health Street Community Health Workers, CHWs. At baseline, 28.3% of participants reported having been in a research study, while 7.7% reported not being interested in participating in research. At all three time points, trust in research and researchers was high, ranging from 7.4 to 8.0 on a scale of 1 to 10, with higher scores indicating greater trust. Additionally, at all three time points, participants expressed high levels of interest in research. These findings suggest that older adults are willing to be involved in research and that their trust in research and researchers remain strong throughout the course of the study. This suggests that community engagement is an effective way to recruit older adults into research studies.
