PROJECT SUMMARY/ABSTRACT This K01 will provide the principal investigator, Dr. Karey O’Hara, with training and mentored research experiences that will support her transition to an independent intervention scientist specializing in the development of optimized preventive programs for children exposed to uncontrollable stressors that are theory-driven, effective, and scalable. The focus of this K01 is on children’s exposure to interparental conflict after divorce. The training plan provides (1) skills in intervention development and evaluation, including the multiphase optimization strategy (MOST)20 framework, ecological momentary assessment (EMA), theory-based intervention development, and randomized controlled trials (RCTs), (2) experience in applying user-centered design (UCD)8,9 strategies to encourage implementation success. These training goals will be accomplished through workshops (e.g., MOST, UCD, EMA) and coursework (e.g., seminars on experimental and quasi-experimental design, web-based program design, theory-based programs for divorce), as well as didactic instruction (i.e., directed readings), hands-on training (i.e., large-scale RCT, analysis of existing EMA data), and mentored research experiences. The proposed K01 training and research activities will be executed at Arizona State University’s (ASU’s) Department of Psychology and Research and Education Advancing Children’s Health (REACH) Institute. Primary mentorship will be provided by Dr. Sharlene Wolchik (ASU; expert in children’s mental health and parental divorce, intervention development and evaluation) and co-mentorship will be provided by Dr. Irwin Sandler (ASU; expert in children’s stress and coping, parental divorce, intervention development and evaluation) and Dr. Stephen West (ASU; expert in factorial design, causal inference, longitudinal analysis, program evaluation). In addition, Dr. O’Hara will receive training from Dr. Linda Collins (Penn State; developer of MOST), Dr. E. Mark Cummings (University of Notre Dame; expert in interparental conflict), Dr. Aaron Lyon (University of Washington; expert in UCD strategies), and Dr. Harry Reis (University of Rochester; expert in EMA). The overarching objective of the proposed projects is to develop an optimized intervention for children exposed to high post-divorce interparental conflict, as this is a leading risk factor for mental health problems in children who experience divorce. To achieve Aim 1, I will use UCD strategies (surveys, focus groups, quantitative measures, user-testing) to ascertain information from potential end-users on needs, preferences, usability, and satisfaction. To achieve Aim 2, I will apply MOST and conduct a factorial optimization trial to isolate effects of web-based coping intervention components. This research aligns with the NIMH “experimental therapeutics” approach to intervention development and evaluation.

项目摘要/摘要 该K01将为首席研究员Karey O'Hara博士提供培训和指导的研究经验 这将支持她过渡到专门研究优化的独立干预科学家 针对儿童的预防计划，暴露于理论驱动，有效且可扩展的不可控制的压力源。 这一K01的重点是离婚后儿童接触互机冲突。培训计划提供（1） 干预开发和评估方面的技能，包括多相优化策略（大多数）20 框架，生态瞬时评估（EMA），基于理论的干预发展和随机 对照试验（RCT），（2）应用以用户为中心设计的经验（UCD）8,9策略鼓励 实施成功。这些培训目标将通过研讨会（例如大多数，UCD，EMA）实现 和课程（例如，有关实验和准实验设计的半手，基于网络的程序设计， 基于理论的离婚计划）以及教学教学（即有指导读数），动手培训（即 大规模RCT，对现有EMA数据的分析）以及指导研究经验。拟议的K01培训 研究活动将在亚利桑那州立大学（ASU）心理学系和 研究和教育推进儿童健康（REACH）研究所。主要的Mentalship将由 Sharlene Wolchik博士（ASU；儿童心理健康与父母离婚的专家，干预发展和 评估）和会议制度将由Irwin Sandler博士（ASU；儿童压力和应对专家， 父母离婚，干预发展和评估）和斯蒂芬·韦斯特（ASU；阶乘设计专家， 因果推断，纵向分析，计划评估）。此外，O'Hara博士将获得博士的培训。 琳达·柯林斯（Linda Collins）（宾夕法尼亚州立大学；大多数的开发商），E。MarkCummings博士（巴黎圣母院大学；专家 父母冲突），亚伦·里昂（Aaron Lyon）博士（华盛顿大学； UCD策略专家）和哈里·里斯（Harry Reis）博士 （罗切斯特大学； EMA专家）。拟议项目的总体目标是开发 针对暴露于离婚后互生冲突的儿童的优化干预措施，因为这是领先的危险因素 对于经历离婚的儿童的心理健康问题。为了实现目标1，我将使用UCD策略 （调查，焦点小组，定量措施，用户测试）从潜在的最终用户中确定信息 需求，偏好，可用性和满意度。为了实现目标2，我将应用大多数并进行阶乘 优化试验以隔离基于Web的应对干预组件的影响。这项研究与 NIMH的“实验疗法”方法开发和评估。
