How Can Researchers Mitigate Participant Attrition?
Researchers can employ several strategies to reduce attrition rates:
Enhanced Communication: Regular updates and maintaining a good rapport with participants can keep them engaged. Flexible Scheduling: Accommodating participants' schedules can help them manage their commitments better. Support Services: Providing transportation, child care, and other support services can alleviate logistical burdens. Monitoring and Follow-ups: Regular monitoring and follow-up calls can help address issues before they lead to dropout.
