Training patients to review scientific reports for the Patient-Centered Outcomes Research Institute: an observational study.
This observational study aimed to evaluate the effect of new training for patient peer reviewers of scientific reports for the Patient-Centered Outcomes Research Institute (PCORI). A new online training in peer review was used to help change reviewers’ knowledge and skills and change self-efficacy and attitudes. Reviewers improved their answers to the knowledge questions. Median numbers of answers improved after the training, particularly in questions targeting the specifics of PCORI peer review. It modestly increased reviewers’ confidence in completing a high-quality peer review. Their excitement about providing a review slightly increased. All reviewers were satisfied with the training.

Training in patient-centered outcomes research for specific researcher communities.
A number of publications have discussed approaches to training the scientific workforce in comparative effectiveness research (CER) and patient-centered outcomes research (PCOR). To extend these efforts into specific researcher communities, the AHRQ developed a Funding Opportunity Announcement that called for training for a specific researcher community in collaboration with associated program partners. This paper describes the strategies developed by the 5 subsequently funded programs, and the challenges associated with developing in-person and online programs.
