DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): Hawaii is a unique state. Geographically, it is the most isolated group of islands in the world. Hawaii's special multicultural population numbers 1,211,537 and there is no ethnic majority, over 60% are Asian or Pacific Islanders. None of these population characteristics would matter much in the alcohol field if ethnicity was not associated with drinking patterns and alcohol related problems. However, the existing evidence indicates that ethnicity is related to drinking patterns as well as to the problems associated with drinking. The Department of Psychiatry at the University of Hawaii's John A. Burns School of Medicine is well equipped to address problems related to alcohol in multicultural populations through education and research. Additionally, the work proposed in this application builds on an existing, successful partnership with a research-intensive institution on the mainland, the University of Texas School of Public Health, and a recognized alcohol researcher, Dr. Raul Caetano. With these considerations, this application has the long-range goal of establishing and sustaining a program in alcohol research that focuses its efforts on the disproportionate rates of alcohol consumption in minority populations and on cultural perspectives necessary for accessing these groups, conducting research and developing programs, especially with regards to Asian Americans and Pacific Islanders. Specifically, we plan to (1) conduct collaborative alcohol epidemiology research development through pilot projects and feasibility studies including (a) alcohol use, stress, and pregnancy complications in an ethnically diverse sample; (b) patterns of alcohol consumption and alcohol related problems among Filipino, Japanese, Hawaiian, and Caucasian adults in Hawaii; and (c) psychosociocultural risk and protective factors for alcohol use among youth in Hawaii's community and criminal justice system; (2) to formalize a plan for alcohol research training and mentoring of minority scientists at the University of Hawaii's John A. Burns School of Medicine in collaboration with the University of Texas, including curriculum, student selection process and other administrative matters; and (3) to develop a strategic plan to disseminate alcohol research results to health care professionals, and the minority community in collaboration with the University of Texas, as well as community and local groups in Hawaii.

描述（由申请人提供）：夏威夷是一个独特的状态。从地理上讲，它是世界上最孤立的岛屿。夏威夷的特殊多元文化人口为1,211,537，没有种族多数，超过60％是亚洲或太平洋岛民。如果种族与饮酒模式和与酒精有关的问题无关，那么这些人口特征在酒精领域都不重要。但是，现有的证据表明种族与饮酒模式以及与饮酒有关的问题有关。夏威夷大学约翰·A·伯恩斯医学院的精神病学系具有良好的能力，可以通过教育和研究来解决多元文化人群中与酒精有关的问题。此外，本申请中提出的工作基于与大陆的研究密集型机构，得克萨斯大学公共卫生学院以及公认的酒精研究员Raul Caetano博士的现有成功合作。在这些考虑方面，该应用具有长期目标，即在酒精研究中建立和维持一项计划，将其努力重点放在少数群体人口中的饮酒率不成比例的速度上，以及访问这些群体，进行研究和发展计划所必需的文化观点，尤其是在亚洲美洲美国人和太平洋岛民方面。具体而言，我们计划（1）通过试点项目和可行性研究进行协作性酒精流行病学研究开发，包括（a）种族多样的样本中的酒精使用，压力和妊娠并发症； （b）夏威夷菲律宾，日本，夏威夷和高加索成年人中饮酒和与酒精有关的问题的模式； （c）夏威夷社区和刑事司法系统中青年人在青年中使用饮酒的心理社会文化风险和保护因素； （2）在夏威夷大学约翰·A·伯恩斯医学院（John A. Burns Medicine）与得克萨斯大学合作的少数族裔科学家的酒精研究培训计划和指导计划，包括课程，学生选择过程和其他行政事务； （3）制定一项战略计划，将酒精研究结果传播给医疗保健专业人员，以及与德克萨斯大学以及夏威夷的社区和地方团体合作的少数民族社区。
