DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): The immediate goal of the proposed research is to investigate factors that may contribute to functional limitations and disability in African America women (AAW) 60-85 years of age, focusing specifically on older AAW with osteoarthritis (OA). The broader long-term goal is to provide data that will inform the development of interventions to decrease functional limitations and disability rates in AAW; although current research has addressed factors in the disablement of Mexican American and non-Hispanic White women, research on the disablement process in AAW is lacking. The possible predictors of function and disability include psychosocial (trust in health care providers), environmental (racial discrimination in health care and health care access), and biological (age and body mass index) factors. The specific aims of this research are therefore: (1) to describe the relationship between biological, psychosocial, and environmental factors and function and disability in AAW 60-85 years of age with OA; (2) to identify predictors of function in AAW 60-85 years of age with OA; and (3) to identify predictors of disability in AAW 60-85 years of age with OA. Data will be collected via questionnaires that can be mailed in. The instruments used will include demographic data, the Experiences of Discrimination Instrument, the Trust in Phrygians Scale, the Consumer Assessment of Health Care Providers and Systems Survey, the Multidimensional Health Assessment Questionnaire, and the Craig Handicap Assessment and Reporting Technique. Analyses will consist of Pearson correlations, and multiple and hierarchical regressions.

描述（由申请人提供）：拟议研究的直接目标是研究可能导致非洲裔美国妇女功能局限性和残疾的因素（AAW）60-85岁，专门针对老年AAW患有骨关节炎（OA）。更广泛的长期目标是提供数据，这些数据将为干预措施的发展提供信息，以降低AAW功能限制和残疾率；尽管目前的研究已经解决了墨西哥裔美国人和非西班牙裔白人妇女残疾的因素，但缺乏对AAW残疾过程的研究。功能和残疾的可能预测因素包括社会心理（卫生保健提供者的信任），环境（医疗保健和医疗保健方面的种族歧视）以及生物学（年龄和体重指数）因素。因此，这项研究的具体目的是：（1）描述 OA 60-85岁的AAW生物学，心理和环境因素以及功能和残疾； （2）确定AAW 60-85岁的AAW功能预测因素； （3）确定AAW 60-85岁的AAW残疾预测因素。数据将通过可以邮寄的问卷收集。所使用的仪器将包括人口统计数据，歧视工具的经验，Phrygians量表的信任，对医疗保健提供者和系统调查的消费者评估，多维健康评估问卷以及Craig障碍评估和报告技术。分析将包括皮尔逊相关性以及多个和分层回归。
