Project Summary/Abstract – Analysis Core The Deep South RCMAR’s primary objective is to increase both the number and diversity of investigators with the capacity to conduct independent research related to minority aging and health disparities. The research focus of the Deep South RCMAR is on reducing health disparities between African American and non-Hispanic White older adults in the Deep South, the region of the country where the majority of older African Americans live and health disparities have been particularly persistent. The Analysis Core (AnC) will support the vision and activities of the Deep South RCMAR by providing mentoring and training of Scientists in the areas of methods, measurement, and secondary data analysis as it relates to health disparities and minority aging. The AnC will achieve this goal by leveraging existing expertise, data resources, and infrastructure at our four partnering institutions (The University of Alabama at Birmingham, Morehouse School of Medicine, Tuskegee University, and The University of Alabama). The AnC aims consist of a three-fold strategy. First, we will collaborate with the Research Education Component (REC) and the Community Liaison and Recruitment Core (CLRC) to mentor and train Scientists in methods and measurement techniques related to the study of health disparities of older African Americans in the Deep South. This will include: a) conducting training in methods, measurement, and secondary data analysis focused on health disparities/minority aging; and b) facilitating linkage of Scientists with methodological, biostatistical, and analytical resources available within the Deep South RCMAR. Second, in collaboration with the REC and the CLRC, we will mentor and train Scientists in the conduct of secondary data analyses using sociobehavioral, economic, clinical, and genetic data, with the goal of informing the development and evaluation of interventions to address health disparities among older African Americans in the Deep South. This will include: a) conducting training in the analysis of secondary data with a focus on data with Deep South RCMAR expertise; and b) facilitating mentoring of Scientists in the analysis of secondary data by establishing workgroups comprised of Deep South RCMAR senior and junior investigators with expertise in datasets relevant to minority aging and health disparities. Finally, we will collaborate with the national RCMAR Coordinating Center in the dissemination of culturally sensitive measures and secondary data analysis techniques relevant to minority aging.

项目总结/摘要 – 分析核心 Deep South RCMAR 的主要目标是增加调查人员的数量和多样性 进行与少数族裔老龄化和健康差异相关的独立研究的能力。研究 南方腹地 RCMAR 的重点是减少非裔美国人和非西班牙裔之间的健康差距 南方腹地的白人老年人是该国大多数老年非裔美国人居住的地区 生活和健康方面的差距尤其持续存在。分析核心 (AnC) 将支持这一愿景 和深南 RCMAR 的活动，为科学家提供以下领域的指导和培训： 与健康差异和少数民族老龄化相关的方法、测量和二手数据分析。这 AnC 将通过利用我们四个部门的现有专业知识、数据资源和基础设施来实现这一目标 合作机构（阿拉巴马大学伯明翰分校、莫尔豪斯医学院、塔斯基吉 大学和阿拉巴马大学）。 AnC 的目标包括三重战略。首先，我们将 与研究教育部分 (REC) 以及社区联络和招聘核心合作 (CLRC) 指导和培训科学家与健康研究相关的方法和测量技术 南方腹地老年非裔美国人的差异。这将包括： a) 进行方法培训， 测量和侧重于健康差异/少数族裔老龄化的二次数据分析； b) 促进 科学家与深层可用的方法、生物统计和分析资源的联系 南 RCMAR。其次，我们将与 REC 和 CLRC 合作，指导和培训科学家 使用社会行为、经济、临床和遗传数据进行二次数据分析，目标是 为解决非洲老年人健康差异的干预措施的制定和评估提供信息 身处南方腹地的美国人。这将包括： a) 进行二手数据分析培训 凭借 Deep South RCMAR 专业知识专注于数据； b) 促进对科学家分析的指导 通过建立由 Deep South RCMAR 高级和初级调查员组成的工作组来获取二手数据 拥有与少数族裔老龄化和健康差异相关的数据集方面的专业知识。最后，我们将与 国家 RCMAR 协调中心传播文化敏感措施和二手数据 与少数民族老龄化相关的分析技术。
