COVID-19 provides an opportunity for Social, Behavioral and Economic science (SBE) researchers to develop and test new theories regarding sociocultural differences in responses to pandemics. Diverse perspectives in SBE research are essential to develop outcomes that benefit all members of society and promote the progress of science. Faculty at Minority Serving Institutions (MSI)’s have a unique perspective on COVID-19 and the potential to make significant contributions to fundamental research regarding minority community responses to pandemics. Northern Arizona University (NAU) has twenty statewide campuses, including the main Flagstaff mountain campus, and NAU-Yuma. NAU-Yuma is an MSI with 74% of students identifying as Hispanic/Latino. The NSF award will support a workshop at NAU-Flagstaff to advance fundamental knowledge of the social, behavioral and economic responses to pandemics in minority communities. The goal of the workshop is to build capacity at NAU-Flagstaff and NAU-Yuma for SBE researchers to obtain competitive grant funding and broaden collaborations with faculty from an MSI in SBE research. The workshop will span two days and convene internationally recognized experts in behavioral and regional economics, diverse and early-career researchers in social, behavioral and economic sciences, and grant-writing specialists. The collaborative workshop format includes presentations from keynote speakers, expert led panels and small group breakout sessions. Participants will address two fundamental research questions: 1) What sociocultural factors determine behavioral responses to pandemics? and 2) How do changes in post-pandemic preferences impact tourism-dependent economies? The project deliverables include development of testable hypotheses that incorporate innovative research ideas with a diverse perspective and submission of competitive research proposals with MSI faculty collaborators.This award reflects NSF's statutory mission and has been deemed worthy of support through evaluation using the Foundation's intellectual merit and broader impacts review criteria.

COVID-19为社会、行为和经济科学（SBE）研究人员提供了一个机会，可以开发和测试有关应对流行病的社会文化差异的新理论。在SBE研究中，多样化的视角对于开发有益于社会所有成员的成果和促进科学进步至关重要。少数民族服务机构（MSI）的教师对COVID-19有着独特的视角，并有可能为少数民族社区应对流行病的基础研究做出重大贡献。北方亚利桑那大学（NAU）有20个全州范围的校园，包括主要的弗拉格斯塔夫山校区，和NAU尤马。NAU-Yuma是一个MSI，74%的学生被认为是西班牙裔/拉丁裔。NSF奖将支持在NAU-Flagstaff举办的一个研讨会，以促进对少数民族社区流行病的社会，行为和经济反应的基本知识。 研讨会的目标是在NAU弗拉格斯塔夫和NAU尤马为SBE研究人员建立能力，以获得有竞争力的赠款资金，并扩大 与来自MSI的教师合作进行SBE研究。研讨会将持续两天，召集国际公认的行为和区域经济学专家，社会，行为和经济科学的多元化和早期职业研究人员，以及赠款撰写专家。协作研讨会的形式包括主旨发言人的演讲、专家领导的小组讨论和小组分组会议。与会者将解决两个基本的研究问题：1）什么社会文化因素决定对流行病的行为反应？以及2）疫情后偏好的变化如何影响依赖旅游业的经济体？ 该项目的可交付成果包括开发可验证的假设，将创新的研究思路与多元化的视角相结合，并与MSI教师合作者提交有竞争力的研究提案。该奖项反映了NSF的法定使命，并被认为值得通过使用基金会的智力价值和更广泛的影响审查标准进行评估来支持。
