      ab: Objectives: The purpose of this case study series was to present recruitment and data collection strategies used for Asian American ethnic groups by documenting challenges experienced by researchers in the field of aging. Summary: We compiled four case studies investigating Asian American older adults and/or family caregivers (i.e., Vietnamese, South Asians, Chinese, and Koreans). Each case study employed unique research methods to overcome experienced challenges associated with recruitment and data collection. Discussion: Three constructs were organized for effective recruitment and data collection strategies of this racial group and included (1) forming a bilingual and bicultural research team (research-centered); (2) establishing reciprocal partnerships between researchers and community partners (community-centered); and (3) understanding the historical and cultural backgrounds of targeted ethnic groups (participant-centered). Approaches taken to address the range of challenges and limitations identified in this case study series may also help increase the representation of Asian-American older adults and family caregivers in research. Clinical Implications: Successfully including racial and ethnic minority groups in research, especially Asian Americans, may reduce existing racial disparities in mental and physical health. Any barriers and facilitators affecting the research regarding Asian American ethnic groups should continue to be discussed.
