DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): This 5-year project represents a collaboration between the Rollins School of Public Health of Emory University and the Medical Research Council (MRC) of South Africa (PI: Dr. Priscilla Reddy). In addition to working with our primary partner, the MRC, the collaboration will include two well-established universities, the University of Cape Town Faculty of Health Sciences (Dr. Dele Amousoun) and the Nelson R. Mandela School of Medicine, University of Natal, Durbin (Dr. Jinhabahi). The study has two interrelated primary aims. AIM 1) Conduct a randomized trial comparing the effectiveness of two approaches to tobacco use prevention in a multiethnic sample of South African youth grades five to seven. One of the interventions will be based on a social skills/peer resistance model (Dr. Gil Botvin's Life Skills Training Curriculum), the other on a Harm Minimization model (KEEP LEFT), developed by the principal investigator with colleagues from Western Australia. Approximately 36 Schools will be randomly assigned to one of three experimental groups. Group 1 (comparison) schools will receive usual tobacco and substance use education. Group 2 will receive the Life Skills Training curriculum (adapted for South African youth) beginning in Grade 5, continuing through Grade 7. Group 3 will receive the KEEP LEFT, Harm Minimization curriculum (adapted for South African youth) beginning in Grade 5, continuing through Grade 7. The primary outcome for the school-based intervention study will be 30-day cigarette use. AIM 2) Conduct a comprehensive capacity building initiative to enhance the expertise, across the entire spectrum of tobacco control (e.g., prevention, cessation, and legislation) of South African educators, clinicians, researchers, and policy makers. The main objective to achieve this aim is to conduct an education and training program for five discrete audiences: health and allied professionals, university-based researchers from several disciplines, undergraduate and graduate students from health sciences faculties, university policy makers as well as parliamentary portfolio committees, and legislative, policy and program planners at the national and provincial levels.

描述（由申请人提供）： 这个为期5年的项目代表了埃默里大学公共卫生学院与南非医学研究委员会（MRC）之间的合作（PI：Priscilla Reddy博士）。除了与我们的主要合作伙伴MRC合作外，该合作还将包括两所良好的大学，开普敦大学卫生科学学院（Dele Amousoun博士）和纳塔尔大学纳尔逊大学尼尔森·R·曼德拉医学院，德宾（Jinhabahi博士）。该研究具有两个相互关联的主要目标。 目标1）进行一项随机试验，以比较南非青年五至七年级的多种族样本中两种预防烟草使用方法的有效性。其中一项干预措施将基于社交技能/同伴抵抗模型（Gil Botvin博士的生活技能培训课程），另一个是由危害最小化模型（左）（由西澳大利亚州的同事）开发的。大约36所学校将被随机分配给三个实验组之一。第1组（比较）学校将接受常规的烟草和药物使用教育。第2组将从5年级开始获得生活技能培训课程（适用于南非青年），继续延续7年级。第3组将获得左派，HARN最小化课程（适用于南非青年），从5年级开始，继续进行通过7年级。基于学校的干预研究的主要结果将是30天的香烟。 目标2）在南非教育家，临床医生，研究人员和政策制定者的整个烟草控制（例如，预防，停止和立法）中进行全面的能力建设计划，以增强烟草控制（例如，预防，停止和立法）的专业知识。实现此目标的主要目标是为五个离散受众开展教育和培训计划：卫生和盟友专业人士，来自多个学科的大学研究人员，来自健康科学学院的本科和研究生，大学政策制定者以及议会投资组合国家和省级的委员会以及立法，政策和计划计划者。
