  • In a review of inclusion of non-English speaking (NES) participants, 9% of research articles included NES participants, which may impact study generalisability.

Generating applicable evidence requires inclusion of NES/LEP populations in research. However, inclusion of NES/LEP populations in research is understudied. Additionally, unlike requirements to justify exclusion of other populations, inclusion...
