Study Designs in Epidemiology01:20

Study Designs in Epidemiology

300
Epidemiological study designs are fundamental tools for investigating the distribution, determinants, and control of health conditions in populations. They help researchers understand the relationships between exposures and outcomes, and they broadly fall into two categories: "observational" and "experimental" studies.
Observational studies are those where the researcher does not intervene but rather observes natural variations. They include cross-sectional, cohort, and...

Community Based Intervention01:30

Community Based Intervention

67
Community-based interventions in mental health represent a paradigm shift from institution-centered care to treatments embedded within the fabric of local communities. By prioritizing inclusion and leveraging existing societal structures, this approach fosters a supportive environment conducive to addressing mental health challenges while promoting individual dignity and agency.
Foundations of Community Mental Health Programs
Central to the success of community-based interventions is the...

Bias in Epidemiological Studies01:29

Bias in Epidemiological Studies

408
Biases can arise at various stages of research, from study design and data collection to analysis and interpretation. Recognizing and addressing these biases is essential to ensure the validity and reliability of epidemiological findings.Broadly speaking, biases in epidemiology fall into three main categories: selection bias, information bias, and confounding. A more detailed description of possible biases is:

Models of Health Promotion and Illness Prevention II

1.6K
The person's health status fluctuates continually, varying from being in good health to becoming ill and returning to being healthy. To understand the concept of illness prevention, there are two models. First, the health-illness continuum model is a graphic representation of an individual's wellness. It states that a person is considered healthy in the absence of physical disease and the presence of good emotional health.
The agent-host-environment model states that disease results...

Area of Science:

  • Health Disparities Research
  • Mentoring Programs
  • Community-Engaged Research

Background:

  • Significant health disparities persist among Native Hawaiians, other Pacific Islanders, and Filipinos in Hawai'i.
  • A shortage of trained investigators hinders efforts to address the complex factors contributing to these disparities.
  • Existing research efforts are limited by a lack of specialized training in genetic, socioeconomic, and environmental influences.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To describe a mentoring program designed to train investigators in health disparities research.
  • To emphasize the program's focus on community-engaged research principles.
  • To evaluate the program's impact on early-career faculty and research productivity.

Main Methods:

  • Implementation of a team-science approach, a customized Pilot Projects Program (PPP), a Mentoring Bootcamp, and a mentoring support network.
  • Review of 102 PPP preproposals received between 2017-2022.
  • Analysis of proposal outcomes, award demographics, publication generation, subsequent grant submissions, and return on investment.

Main Results:

  • 22 pilot projects were awarded, with 83% supporting early-career faculty (31% ethnic minority, 72% women).
  • Awards generated 77 publications and led to 31 new grant awards from 84 submissions, yielding a 5.9 return on investment.
  • The program supported 5-11 investigators annually and demonstrated robust usage of core services.

Conclusions:

  • The described mentoring program serves as an effective vehicle for supporting early-stage investigators in health disparities research.
  • The program successfully fosters community-engaged research and addresses critical needs in training diverse faculty.
  • The model demonstrates a significant return on investment and contributes to reducing health disparities.
