项目摘要

DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): The Westchester Square Partnership. This proposal describes a community-based participatory research project that will focus on common mental disorder (CMD) among women in a Bangladeshi community in the Bronx. Studies of South Asian diasporic communities report high levels of distress, depression, and self harm among women, along with very low rates of service utilization. Evidence suggests that low service use may be related to the lack of conceptual synchrony between standard psychiatric treatments and explanatory models of mental illness in the community. The proposed CBPR project will develop a community partnership to address the problem of CMD in Bronx Bangladeshi women. The goal is to develop an intervention model that synchronizes with women's perceptions of illness and care. The project planning group consists of researchers, clinical service providers, and a community service organization serving South Asians in New York City. We will recruit 10 Bangladeshi women from the community as partners. The study will focus on several related tasks: 1) developing the partnership, 2) conceptualizing the problem to be investigated; 3) conducting an assessment of community needs and assets; 4) choosing an intervention to address the problem; 5) evaluating the partnership, and 6) developing a community advisory board. Towards the end of the 2-year project period, we will develop an R01 application to implement and test the intervention selected in this preliminary study.

描述（由申请人提供）：Westchester Square Partnership。该提案描述了一个基于社区的参与研究项目，该项目将重点关注布朗克斯孟加拉国社区中女性的常见精神障碍（CMD）。对南亚流离失所社区的研究报告说，女性的困扰，抑郁和自我伤害很高，服务利用率非常低。有证据表明，使用较低的服务使用可能与社区中标准精神病治疗和精神疾病的解释模型之间缺乏概念同步有关。拟议的CBPR项目将建立社区合作伙伴关系，以解决布朗克斯孟加拉国妇女的CMD问题。目的是开发一种干预模型，该模型与妇女对疾病和护理的看法同步。项目计划小组由研究人员，临床服务提供商和在纽约市为南亚人提供服务的社区服务组织。我们将以合作伙伴的身份从社区招募10名孟加拉国妇女。该研究将重点关注几个相关任务：1）建立伙伴关系，2）概念化要研究的问题； 3）对社区需求和资产进行评估； 4）选择干预措施解决问题； 5）评估合作伙伴关系，6）建立社区顾问委员会。在2年期末期结束时，我们将开发R01应用程序，以实施和测试此初步研究中选择的干预措施。
