DESCRIPTION: The proposed research is designed to examine reduction in youth substance use and other problem behavior resulting from the application of an innovative intervention partnership model called PROSPER (PROmoting School/community-university Partnerships to Enhance Resilience). The need for this research is indicated by epidemiological data on substance use and related problems among young adolescents, and by the limited diffusion of empirically-supported interventions designed to prevent such problems. The proposed study will draw upon results from several federally-funded projects at Iowa State University and Pennsylvania State University that have demonstrated (a) the feasibility of a diffusion partnership model linking land-grant university researchers, the Cooperative Extension System, the public school system, and community stakeholders, and (b) promising methods for the evaluation of partnership processes. A randomized, cohort sequential design will be applied. Eligible school districts (e.g., those with higher proportions of families eligible for the school lunch program) will be identified, with total school enrollments ranging between approximately 1,300 and 5,200 students. Fourteen school districts in IA and in PA (N = 28) meeting eligibility criteria will be selected, blocked on size, and randomly assigned to either the diffusion partnership condition or to a "usual programming" control condition. Approximately 2,500 6th graders in each of two consecutive cohorts in each state (N = 10,000) will complete a school-based assessment; approximately 1,200 randomly selected students and their parents in the second cohort will complete in-home interviews, including videotaped family interactions. Local partnership teams will select and implement interventions from a menu of empirically-supported family-focused and school-based interventions. The proposed study will evaluate partnership-assisted intervention outcomes-both mediators (e.g., targeted skills) and more distal outcomes (e.g., adolescent substance use) common to all interventions on the menu, conducting intervention-control comparisons at posttest and follow-up assessments, using multi-method, multi-informant procedures (Aim 1). Partnership processes will be assessed to identify factors that positively affect: (a) success of the partnerships from partner and outsider perspectives, (b) quality of intervention implementation, and (c) institutionalization of the partnership (Aim 2). Modeling of partnership and intervention-related change mechanisms also will be conducted. Results will guide application of the partnership model to other school districts in IA and PA and, subsequently, to other states.

描述：拟议的研究旨在检查青年吸毒的减少 以及通过应用创新干预伙伴关系模型（促进学校/社区 - 大学合作伙伴关系以增强弹性）而产生的其他问题行为。这项研究的需求是通过有关年轻青少年的物质使用和相关问题的流行病学数据表明的，并且有限的扩散 旨在防止此类问题的经验支持的干预措施。拟议的研究将借鉴爱荷华州立大学和宾夕法尼亚州立大学的几个联邦资助项目的结果，这些项目已证明（a）（a）将土地授予大学研究人员，合作扩展系统，公立学校系统和社区利益相关者以及（b）（b）（b）的扩散伙伴关系模型的可行性，以及（b） 伙伴关系流程的评估。 将应用一个随机的同类顺序设计。将确定合格的学区（例如，有资格获得学校午餐计划的家庭比例较高的学区）将被确定，学校入学人数约为1,300至5,200名。将选出IA和宾夕法尼亚州和宾夕法尼亚州（n = 28）的14个学区会议资格标准，被封锁 大小，并随机分配给扩散伙伴关系条件或“通常的编程”控制条件。在每个州连续两个人群中，大约有2500名六年级学生（n = 10,000）将完成基于学校的评估；在第二个队列中，大约有1200名随机选择的学生及其父母将完成家庭访谈，包括录像带的家庭互动。当地合伙团队将选择和 从经验支持家庭和学校的干预措施的菜单中实施干预措施。 拟议的研究将评估合作伙伴关系的干预成果，例如，对目标技能）和菜单上所有干预措施共有的更远端结果（例如，青春期的吸毒者使用），在后测试和随访评估，使用多类方法，多甲甲化，多人 - 核法（AIL-IN-INFORCERY（AIL）1）。将评估伙伴关系过程，以确定积极影响的因素：（a）成功的成功。 从合作伙伴和局外人的角度来看，（b）干预实施质量以及（c）合作伙伴关系的制度化（AIM 2）。还将对伙伴关系和干预相关的变更机制进行建模。结果将指导合伙模型的应用到IA和PA的其他学区，然后将其应用于其他州。
