DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): The proposed Center of Excellence (P30) will promote biobehavioral research to extend symptom science using the Adaptive Leadership (AL) framework to conceptualize and study cognitive/affective symptoms in chronic illness. The overall Center aims are to: (1) Enhance and sustain the productivity of new nursing scientists engaged in interdisciplinary biobehavioral research to understand and ameliorate symptoms, symptom distress, and symptom sequelae using adaptive approaches for people with cognitive/affective changes in chronic illness; (2) Assist investigators to tailor research approaches and interventions to optimize research participation by people with cognitive/affective changes by addressing minority health issues and refining existing, or creating new intervention protocols and self-report measures (i.e., Patient-Reported Outcomes Measurement Information System [PROMIS]. (3) Increase investigator competence in using longitudinal quantitative, qualitative, and mixed method approaches to examine the trajectories of symptoms, symptom sequelae and patient adaptation associated with cognitive/affective changes. The work of the Center will be carried by in three Cores, the Administrative Core, the Mentoring and Scholarship Core, and the Design and Methods Core. Expected outcomes of the center include studies of trajectories of cognitive/affective symptoms and symptom sequelae to describe patterns, variability, and change over time to gain knowledge needed about critical periods or transition points for timing of interventions, identify differences within subpopulatios such as those with varying levels of cognitive ability or minority health needs, and generate knowledge for developing/testing interventions to enhance patients' adaptive capabilities. PUBLIC HEALTH RELEVANCE: Barriers to care arise for people with cognitive/affective changes because they may not clearly convey concerns or communicate easily. If not addressed through research, these barriers will create health disparities. Center researchers will study trajectories of cognitive/affective symptoms and symptom sequelae to gain knowledge needed for developing tailored interventions and enhance care for these populations.

描述（由申请人提供）：拟议的卓越中心（P30）将使用自适应领导力（AL）框架来扩展症状科学，以概念化和研究慢性疾病中的认知/情感症状。总体中心的目的是：（1）使用适应性方法来理解和改善症状，症状困扰和症状后遗症，提高从事跨学科生物行为研究的新护理科学家的生产力，以适应慢性疾病的认知/情感变化的人； （2）通过解决少数群体健康问题和完善现有的认知/情感变化的人的研究方法和干预措施来量身定制研究方法和干预措施，以优化研究的参与，或者创建新的干预方案和自我报告措施（即患者报告的结果结果测量信息系统[Promis]（Promis）[Promis]（3）增加了研究的方法。与认知/情感变化相关的后遗症和患者适应性。诸如认知能力或少数族裔健康需求水平不同的子繁殖的差异，并为开发/测试干预措施产生知识以增强患者的适应性能力。 公共卫生相关性：具有认知/情感变化的人的护理障碍是出现的，因为他们可能无法清楚地传达问题或容易沟通。如果没有通过研究来解决，这些障碍将造成健康差异。中心研究人员将研究认知/情感症状和症状后遗症的轨迹，以获取开发量身定制的干预措施所需的知识并增强对这些人群的护理。
