项目摘要

DESCRIPTION (Provided by the Applicant): The goal of the proposed CSUN-San Fernando Valley (SFV) Center to Reduce Health Disparities is to develop a research center to reduce health disparities for vulnerable populations from several disciplinary and methodological perspectives. The Center will serve three areas of emphasis: (a) faculty support - to train CSUN faculty from many disciplines, primarily Psychology, along with community activists, to conduct culturally competent, relevant, and valid research with underserved populations and to disseminate that information to the academe, to the lay public, and to policy-makers, (b) student support - to develop workplace diversity by developing a cadre of undergraduate and graduate students who have been traditionally underrepresented in health disparities research by providing coursework, training, research experiences, and resources to enter and succeed in graduate programs, and (c) ecologically valid health disparities research and dissemination - to develop a center for excellence in ecologically valid research that will explore alliances between university researchers and community organizations, schools, and other institutions to ensure greater ecological validity in health-related research and community research. The CSUN-SFV Center to Reduce Health Disparities will serve as a hub for future collaborative work that supports health disparities researchers by developing EcoLab, a modifiable laboratory that can be made into environments that are representative of a home with kitchen and living room to study family interactions and to conduct interviews, focus groups, and community meetings; a restaurant to study eating behaviors; or a medical examination room to study health care issues such as communication, expectations, and stereotyping. Thus far, we have collaborative agreements with 7 departments spanning three colleges, with 28 RIMI faculty members, an advisory board consisting of Drs. Steven Lopez, Raymond Buriel, Michele Cooley, and Mayra Bamaca and Ms. Stephanie Saliger of the community. We have also enlisted the assistance of 8 trainers and mentors. We intend to support 10 RIMI students by providing them with coursework, travel and GRE support and research experiences in the laboratory and in community agencies.

描述（由申请人提供）：拟议的Csun-san Fernando Valley（SFV）中心的目标是减少健康差异，是开发一个研究中心，以减少从几种学科和方法论角度来减少弱势群体的健康差异。 The Center will serve three areas of emphasis: (a) faculty support - to train CSUN faculty from many disciplines, primarily Psychology, along with community activists, to conduct culturally competent, relevant, and valid research with underserved populations and to disseminate that information to the academe, to the lay public, and to policy-makers, (b) student support - to develop workplace diversity by developing a cadre of undergraduate and graduate students who have been传统上，通过提供课程，培训，研究经验和资源来进入研究生课程并取得成功，以及（c）生态上有效的健康差异研究和传播，开发一个卓越的生态有效研究中心，以探索大学研究人员和社区研究人员和其他社区研究中的社区研究中的卓越，以探索卓越的生态有效研究中心，以开发一个卓越的生态有效研究中心，以开发出卓越的生态有效研究中心，以开发出卓越的生态有效研究中心，以开发出卓越的生态有效研究中心，以确保更大的生态研究和其他社区研究，从而确保了卓越的健康研究中心。减少健康差异的CSUN-SFV中心将作为未来协作工作的枢纽，通过开发Ecolab来支持健康差异研究人员，Ecolab是一个可修改的实验室，该实验室可以成为代表具有厨房和客厅的家庭互动和进行家庭互动并进行家庭互动并进行访谈，焦点小组和社区会议的环境的环境；研究饮食行为的餐厅；或研究医疗保健问题的医学检查室，例如沟通，期望和刻板印象。到目前为止，我们与跨三所大学的7个部门达成了合作协议，其中28位RIMI教职员工，一个由DRS组成的顾问委员会。史蒂文·洛佩兹（Steven Lopez），雷蒙德·伯里尔（Raymond Buriel），米歇尔·库利（Michele Cooley）和梅拉·巴马卡卡（Mayra Bamaca）和社区的斯蒂芬妮·萨利格（Stephanie Saliger）女士。我们还获得了8位培训师和导师的协助。我们打算通过为实验室和社区机构中的课程，旅行和GRE的支持和研究经验提供支持10位RIMI学生。
