Abstract:
Baseline target moderation (BTM) and baseline target moderated mediation (BTMM) constitute critical methodological and analytical approaches for the future of prevention science. However, the continuing refinement and utilization of these approaches carry important challenges when considering equity challenges that remain present in the prevention science field. Accordingly, this commentary is focused on examining cultural and contextual considerations associated with the set of articles included in this study, as well as directions for enhancing future research by embracing a solid grounding on equity perspectives. For example, to which extent do BTM and BTMM approaches include variables of relevance such as perceived discrimination, economic adversity, and other cultural and contextual domains that impact the lives of underserved diverse populations? In addition to providing a review of the articles included in this issue, recommendations are included for informing future prevention research according to equity perspectives.
