Case Studies01:22

Case Studies

There are many research methods available to psychologists in their efforts to understand, describe, and explain behavior and the cognitive and biological processes that underlie it.
Community Based Intervention01:30

Community Based Intervention

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...

Methods of Documentation VI: Case Management Model

The case management model is a multidisciplinary approach that involves healthcare professionals from diverse disciplines, such as physicians, nurses, therapists, social workers, and pharmacists, working collaboratively to address the various needs of patients. Each healthcare professional brings unique expertise and perspectives, contributing to a more comprehensive understanding of the patient's condition and tailoring treatment plans accordingly.
For example, a patient with a chronic illness...
Data Collection by Observations01:08

Data Collection by Observations

Data collection refers to a systematic way of obtaining, observing, measuring, and analyzing accurate information. Observational studies are one of the most widely used methods of data collection. It involves collecting data by observing the behavior and physical characteristics of a sample without making any modifications to the sample.
An astronomer viewing the motion and brightness of stars in the sky and recording the data is an example of observational data collection. A botanist recording...
Observational Studies01:11

Observational Studies

Observational studies are a type of analytical study where researchers observe events without any interventions. In other words, the researcher does not influence the response variable or the experiment's outcome.
There are three types of observational studies – Prospective, retrospective, and cross-sectional.
Prospective Study
Prospective studies, also known as longitudinal or cohort studies, are carried out by collecting future data from groups sharing similar characteristics. One example of...
Impact of Social Context on Individuals01:21

Impact of Social Context on Individuals

Social psychology examines how the real or imagined presence of others influences individuals' thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. A key concept in this field is the role of social context in shaping behavior. The same individual may act differently depending on the social setting, due to the varying expectations and norms associated with each environment. This context-dependent behavior illustrates the influence of social roles, which prescribe appropriate conduct in specific situations.Social...

Area of Science:

  • Community-engaged research
  • Health disparities research
  • Research capacity building

Background:

  • The Research Center in Minority Institutions (FIU-RCMI) focuses on health disparities research and training.
  • Community-based organizations (CBOs) are key partners in addressing health inequities.
  • Existing funding mechanisms may not fully meet the capacity-building needs of CBOs.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To describe the development and modification of the Community Research Enhancement Grant (CREG) program.
  • To illustrate how the CREG initiative was adapted to meet the evolving needs of local CBOs.
  • To highlight the importance of stakeholder feedback in designing research capacity-building programs.

Main Methods:

  • The 2023 CREG funding cycle was restructured using Cooke's (2005) four-stage Research Capacity Building (RCB) framework.
  • The program was reconceptualized as a capacity-building opportunity based on feedback from previous awardees.
  • An iterative feedback process involving diverse stakeholders was employed.

Main Results:

  • The CREG initiative was successfully modified to better serve the needs of local CBOs.
  • Reconceptualizing CREG as a capacity-building opportunity enhanced its effectiveness.
  • The restructured program demonstrated alignment with community and researcher needs.

Conclusions:

  • An iterative feedback process is crucial for developing effective research capacity-building initiatives.
  • Adapting programs based on stakeholder input ensures relevance and impact.
  • This approach strengthens community-engaged research partnerships and outcomes.
