This renewal application requests continued support for the NIMH MIRDP Program at the University of Puerto Rico, Rio Piedras Campus (UPR-RP). During the initial grant period , two individual research projects and an Institutional Core in support of research development were funded. For this competing renewal we are proposing an expansion of the institutional core. Five individual investigator research projects (IIRP) are proposed as part of this program. The general objective of our MIRDP program is to advance the growth of high quality and rigorous research on mental health and AIDS at the UPR-RP. We expect to accomplish this aim through: (l) Involving faculty members in conducting pilot work leading to a competitive research grant on mental health and HIV-AIDS (MHA) problems, specially evaluation and treatment outcome research. (2) increasing the participation of graduate and undergraduate students in MHA research. (3) Supporting research development activities for faculty involved in MHA research, and (4) Enhancing and strengthening the institutional infrastructure for conducting MHA research. The rationale for the program is based on the need to develop a parallel structure of support to carry out independent MHA research by minority faculty at a minority institution. The proposed program for faculty research development at UPR- RP consists of three components. The first component is an Institutional Core to support research infrastructure development through individually based plans of faculty research activities, faculty and student development activities, a methodological statistical core and a UPR-RP MIRDP Research Resource Center. The second component entails individual Faculty Research Projects. Five lIRPs are proposed with six participating faculty members. Twelve participants (ten affiliated faculty and two doctoral students will be involved in MHA pilot research. The third component involves Program Leadership and Evaluation in support of research and research development activities. A unique feature of the program is the organization of current institutional resources in a clear, coherent, and integrated plan of career development in support for MHA research. Faculty members are involved in carrying out their research from the moment the program begins and participate in a developmental individualized plan that supports the faculty member in a step by step approach toward the objective of producing a competitive research proposal. The participation of undergraduate and graduate students in the development of faculty research is another aspect of the program aimed at increasing the training opportunities offered to students in MHA research. Sixteen faculty' members and two doctoral students from graduate programs at the College of Social Science (Psychology, Sociology, Social Work) and the College of Education (Department of Graduate Studies) will participate in the proposed MIRDP.

此续订申请请求继续支持NIMH MIRDP 波多黎各大学里约热内卢校区课程(UPR-RP)。 在最初的资助期间，两个单独的研究项目和一个 为支持研究开发的机构核心项目提供了资金。为 这一相互竞争的更新我们提议扩大机构 核心。提出了五个个体调查者研究项目(IIRP) 作为这个项目的一部分。我们MIRDP计划的总体目标是 推动高质量、严谨的心理健康研究成长 和艾滋病在普遍定期审议-RP。我们希望通过：(L)实现这一目标 让教职员工参与进行试点工作，从而 关于精神健康和艾滋病毒-艾滋病(MHA)问题的竞争性研究补助金， 特别是评估和治疗结果研究。(2)增加 研究生和本科生参与MHA研究。(3) 支持参与MHA的教职员工的研究开发活动 研究；(4)加强和加强制度建设。 进行MHA研究的基础设施。该计划的基本原理是 是基于需要开发一种并行的支撑结构来承载 由少数教职员工进行独立的MHA研究 机构。UPR拟议的教职员工研究发展计划- RP由三个组件组成。第一个组成部分是一个制度 通过单独支持研究基础设施开发的核心 基于教员研究活动、教职员工和学生的计划 发展活动、方法统计核心和普遍定期审议方案 MIRDP研究资源中心。第二个组件需要个人 教师研究项目。建议五个lirp，其中六个参与。 教职员工。12名参与者(10名附属教员和2名 博士生将参与MHA的试点研究。第三 组件涉及支持以下项目的计划领导和评估 研究和研究开发活动。的一项独特功能 计划是对现有机构资源的一种明确的组织， 支持MHA的连贯、综合的职业发展计划 研究。教职员工参与了他们的研究 项目开始并参与开发项目的那一刻 支持教职员工循序渐进的个性化计划 接近产生竞争性研究的目标的方法 求婚。本科生和研究生的参与 教员研究的发展是该计划的另一个方面，旨在 增加对MHA研究学生的培训机会。 16名教职员工和2名研究生 社会科学学院(心理学、社会学、社会工作)和 教育学院(研究生学系)将参加 在拟议的MIRDP中。
