DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): This proposed FIRCA will be done primarily in Vietnam at the Danang Psychiatric Hospital in collaboration with Trung T. Lam, M.D., as an extension of NIH Grant No. R01 MH070865 (04/01/2005 - 02/28/2010). This research represents a collaboration between Bahr Weiss, Ph.D. (PI), Vanderbilt University, and (b) Lam Trung, M.D. (co-PI and Major Foreign Collaborator), Vice-Director, Danang Psychiatric Hospital, Vietnam, as well as several additional Vietnamese and Western collaborators. Ultimate goals of this FIRCA are (a) to increase research capacity vis-`-vis children's mental health at the Danang Psychiatric Hospital (Vietnam), and (b) in the process, advance our knowledge regarding basic and clinical research aspects of children's mental health, in particular in regards to behavioral, social, and cultural processes related to somatization problems and their successful treatment, in children, adolescents, and young adults (hereafter referred to as "youth"). These broad goals will be achieved through implementation of two Specific Aims. Specific Aim #1 is to conduct two collaborative research projects with Dr. Trung and several other faculty at the Danang Psychiatric Hospital. The first collaborative projects will focus on individual and group ("mass psychogenic illness") somatization among Vietnamese youth. Somatization, including mass psychogenic illness, is increasingly being recognized as a serious problem in Vietnam by mental health professionals, and this series of studies will focus on identifying correlates of somatization hypothesized to be (a) risk factors for the development of somatization including stigma associated with "psychological" symptoms such as depression and anxiety (as opposed to "bodily" symptoms such as headaches) and (b) outcomes associated with somatization. The second collaborative project will focus on an empirical assessment of current mental health interventions in use in Vietnam, and how culturally appropriate interventions with greater efficacy may be developed and successfully disseminated. Specific Aim #2 is to conduct a series of training seminars and conferences that will provide training for the faculty at the Danang Psychiatric Hospital (as well as other interested professionals) that will complement the apprenticeship model learning from the collaborative projects. The conferences will focus on topics related to these projects, such as indigenous treatment approaches for psychopathology in Vietnamese youth. The conferences also will provide opportunities to discuss these topics with a broad spectrum of professionals from around the country as well as provide a venue for dissemination of preliminary findings. PUBLIC HEALTH RELEVANCE: The proposed project focuses on children's mental health, in particular somatization problems in children, identifying correlates of somatization, and empirical assessment of current mental health interventions in use in Vietnam. It therefore is directly relevant to public health.

描述（由申请人提供）：该提议的FIRCA将与M.D. Trung T. Lam合作在Danang Psychiatric Hospital的越南进行，作为NIH Grant编号R01 MH070865（04/01/2005-2005-2005-02/28/2010）的扩展。这项研究代表了Bahr Weiss博士之间的合作。 （PI），范德比尔特大学和（b）M.D。Lam Trung（Co-Pi和主要外国合作者），越南Danang Psychiatric Hospital副导演，以及几个其他越南和西方合作者。 Ultimate goals of this FIRCA are (a) to increase research capacity vis-`-vis children's mental health at the Danang Psychiatric Hospital (Vietnam), and (b) in the process, advance our knowledge regarding basic and clinical research aspects of children's mental health, in particular in regards to behavioral, social, and cultural processes related to somatization problems and their successful treatment, in children, adolescents, and young adults (hereafter referred to as "youth").这些广泛的目标将通过实施两个具体目标来实现。特定目标是与Trung博士和Danang Psychiatric Hospital的其他几位教师一起进行两个合作研究项目。第一个合作项目将重点介绍越南青年的个人和团体（“大规模心理疾病”）。包括大规模心理疾病在内的躯体化越来越多地被精神卫生专业人员认为是越南的一个严重问题，这一系列研究将重点介绍识别被认为是（a）躯体化的相关性是（a）躯体发展的危险因素，包括与“心理学”症状相关的污名，包括抑郁症和焦虑症（如诸如身体上的症状）和（如becriantical syprication and and and syprication and and andaperaps and andaphemans and andaCheS and andaCheS and andaCheS and）。第二个合作项目将重点介绍当前越南使用的心理健康干预措施的经验评估，以及如何开发并成功传播具有更大效力的文化适当干预措施。具体目标2是进行一系列的培训研讨会和会议，这些研讨会和会议将为Danang Psychiatric Hospital（以及其他感兴趣的专业人员）的教师提供培训，这些培训将补充学徒模型从协作项目中学习。这些会议将重点介绍与这些项目有关的主题，例如越南青年心理病理学的土著治疗方法。这些会议还将提供机会与来自全国各地的各种专业人员讨论这些主题，并为传播初步发现提供场地。公共卫生相关性：拟议的项目侧重于儿童的心理健康，特别是儿童的躯体化问题，确定躯体化的相关性以及对当前越南使用心理健康干预措施的经验评估。因此，它与公共卫生直接相关。
