项目摘要

PROJECT SUMMARY We are requesting a supplement to the currently funded NIMH grant 5R01MH111742, “Understanding Mediating and Moderating Factors that Determine Transfer of Working Memory Training”. The purpose of this administrative supplement is to request additional funds to expand recruitment efforts needed to reach target enrollment due to unanticipated circumstances related to the current public health and economic crises. The online study was launched in second quarter 2020 with the target of recruiting 30,000 participants to each conduct twenty, 20-minute working memory training sessions, budgeted with around $0.40 per participant for completion incentives (in the form of give-aways). The COVID-19 pandemic has provided a substantial barrier to recruitment. The pandemic has negatively impacted the physical and mental health of millions of individuals and has substantially restructured the way people live and work. These factors, along with mass proliferation of competing online studies (almost all of which require less time and pay more per hour than ours) as human subject research has moved online to address in-person human subject research being closed down around the world, and the unceasing wall of press associated with the pandemic and political events, are unanticipated obstacles that have challenged outreach, recruitment and retention of the 30,000 participants that we plan to enroll in working memory training. To overcome these recruitment barriers, we are requesting additional funds that can be used to pay a publicist, recruit social media influencers, pay participant recruitment services, and increase incentives for participants. This 4-pronged approach will allow us to grow and maintain visibility for our study, reach additional audiences, benefit from professional platforms designed to connect researchers with interested volunteers, and provide incentives to motivate participation. We note that with increases of mental health problems throughout the world, and people seeking solutions without knowledge of which may be effective, our study is timely and important. It has taken years to build the technology and conduct the preliminary research to launch our online study. This supplement is critical to assuring the success of this project that can lead to effective, low-cost interventions to ameliorate cognitive impairments could be life-altering for millions of people worldwide.

项目概要我们正在请求对目前资助的 NIMH 拨款 5R01MH111742 进行补充，“了解决定工作记忆训练转移的中介和调节因素”。行政补充是要求额外的资金来扩大实现目标所需的招聘工作由于与当前公共卫生和经济危机相关的意外情况而导致入学。在线研究于 2020 年第二季度启动，目标是每个项目招募 30,000 名参与者进行 20 次 20 分钟的工作记忆培训课程，每位参与者的预算约为 0.40 美元完成奖励（以赠品的形式）。COVID-19 大流行造成了巨大的障碍。大流行对数百万人的身心健康产生了负面影响。这些因素以及大规模扩散极大地改变了人们的生活和工作方式。在线竞争研究（几乎所有研究都比我们需要更少的时间和每小时支付更多）主题研究已转移到网上，以解决因周围地区而被关闭的面对面人类主题研究问题。世界，以及与流行病和政治事件相关的不断出现的新闻墙，都是出乎意料的挑战我们计划的 30,000 名参与者的外展、招募和保留的障碍为了克服这些招聘障碍，我们正在申请额外的资金。可用于支付公关费用、招募社交媒体影响者、支付参与者招募服务费用，以及增加对参与者的激励。这种四管齐下的方法将使我们能够提高并保持我们的知名度。研究、接触更多受众、受益于旨在将研究人员与我们注意到，随着心理的增加，志愿者的兴趣也随之增加。世界各地的健康问题，人们在不了解这些问题的情况下寻求解决方案有效，我们的研究是及时且重要的，我们花了数年时间来构建该技术并进行初步研究。研究启动我们的在线研究对于确保该项目的成功至关重要。导致有效、低成本的干预措施来改善认知障碍可能会改变数百万人的生活世界各地的人们。
