项目摘要

This proposed Advanced Center For Interventions And Services Research (PA NUMBER: PAR-01-089),entitled "The Center for Prevention and Early Intervention", represents a collaborative effort between the JHU Bloomberg School of Public Health and our community partners in prevention and early intervention (the Baltimore City Public Schools System and the Baltimore Mental Health Systems), and prevention and early intervention researchers at Pennsylvania State University, the University of Alabama, the University of Missouri, the University of Oregon, Columbia University, and Stanford University. The mission of the Center is (1) to improve school-based preventive and early treatment interventions for children and adolescents by bridging epidemiologic, intervention, services, and dissemination and training research through the development of a research structure and research strategies capable of evaluating the effectiveness and sustainability of promising and evidence based interventions; (2) to identify factors that inhibit or facilitate improved prevention and treatment practices and outcomes; (3) to disseminate the knowledge gained in order to improve prevention and treatment research and dissemination and training practices; and (4) to develop within our collaborating community partners the capacity to carry out and disseminate state of the art prevention and early intervention research and evaluations. The Center consists of 3 Cores. The Operations Core provides support to Center collaborators in the following areas: administration, biostatistics, economic analysis, clinical trials, assessment/evaluation, and dissemination and training. The Research Methods Core is focused on advances in biostatistics, economics, and computerized assessment in support of the Center's intervention initiatives. The Principal Research Core provides the structure and support for pilot and feasibility studies aimed at setting the stage for elementary school-based, effectiveness trials of promising and evidence-based prevention and early interventions and assessments. Support over the life of the Center will make it possible: (1) to strengthen and extend research initiatives aimed at evaluating the effectiveness of evidence-based, early preventive and treatment interventions for children and adolescents and (2) to disseminate research on the prevention and treatment of mental disorders in children and adolescents.

这个拟议的干预和服务研究高级中心（PA 编号：PAR-01-089），名为“预防和早期干预中心”，代表了约翰霍普金斯大学布隆伯格公共卫生学院与我们的社区合作伙伴在预防和早期干预方面的合作努力。早期干预（巴尔的摩市公立学校系统和巴尔的摩心理健康系统），以及宾夕法尼亚州立大学、阿拉巴马大学、密苏里大学、俄勒冈大学的预防和早期干预研究人员，哥伦比亚大学、斯坦福大学。该中心的使命是 (1) 通过建立能够评估儿童和青少年的研究结构和研究策略，将流行病学、干预、服务、传播和培训研究联系起来，改善以学校为基础的儿童和青少年预防和早期治疗干预措施。有前途且基于证据的干预措施的有效性和可持续性； (2) 查明抑制或促进改善预防和治疗实践及结果的因素； (3) 传播所获得的知识，以改进预防和治疗研究以及传播和培训实践； (4) 在我们的社区合作伙伴中培养开展和传播最先进的预防和早期干预研究与评估的能力。该中心由 3 个核心组成。运营核心为中心合作者提供以下领域的支持：管理、生物统计学、经济分析、临床试验、评估/评价以及传播和培训。研究方法核心重点关注生物统计学、经济学和计算机化评估方面的进展，以支持该中心的干预举措。主要研究核心为试点和可行性研究提供结构和支持，旨在为基于小学的、有希望的、基于证据的预防以及早期干预和评估的有效性试验奠定基础。中心整个生命周期的支持将使得：(1) 加强和扩展旨在评估儿童和青少年循证早期预防和治疗干预措施有效性的研究举措，以及 (2) 传播有关预防的研究成果。以及儿童和青少年精神障碍的治疗。
