TRAINING PRECEPTORS IN HUMAN RESEARCH ETHICS: AUGMENTATI

这一举措的主要期望是开发，完善和评估年度计划，这将有助于提高我们医学中心的教职员工和医学生对人体研究的道德可接受性。 我们假设这可以通过四个综合过程来完成：首先，我们将清点机构现有的专业知识和与我们的目标相关的计划。第二，将每年开设和举办一次多层面的研究伦理课程。这门课程将有助于培养一批个人，他们将作为促进健康科学校园内进行基础和临床研究的各个选区之间的伦理研究意识的导师。第三，通过有针对性的调查和询问，我们将启动从机构中心到州内较小社区的研究场所的干预和外展机构。最后，我们希望建立一个综合的评估过程，其中包括课程内容的急性和扩展监控，计划目标的实施，参与者的反应，并最终，制度变革的组成部分。 我们的报告将简要回顾在实施的第一年中在实现这些目标方面取得的相对进展。 我们计划的一个实际的早期目标是首先确定一个对人类研究伦理感兴趣的个人核心。 这些人被要求担任调解人，并积极参与开发内容的综合12小时的人类研究伦理课程。该课程采用互动形式，包括每周举行的六次两小时的课程。应邀参加这一课程的人员，其专业职责包括直接的高级研究员经验或以某种身份监督人类研究。澄清赠款提案中的语义，所有被邀请的与会者被认为是学生。在课程结束时，他们可能被认为是导师。 评估小组进行了初步调查，以评估机构的研究相关的道德意识开始之前，我们的计划。这套资料将每年修订。此外，调查工具，问卷和重点访谈进行批判性评估的优势，劣势和研究伦理课程的影响。该方案的主任审查了评估小组的结论，并在第二次提供课程之前对课程内容、格式和结构进行了修改。 更具体地说，受邀参与者名单将包括来自少数民族研究项目的个人，参与知情同意指导的个人，以及来自药学院、护理学院和职业健康学院的主要研究者。 目前正在进行的战略规划正在确定在2000年下半年由教员集中进行推广的机会。

The primary expectation of this initiative is to develop, refine, and evaluate an annual program that would serve to increase the ethical acceptability of human investigation on the part of faculty, staff and medical students at our medical center. We hypothesized that this could be done through four integrated processes: First, we would inventory the institution's existing expertise and programs relevant to our goals. Second, a multi-dimensional Research Ethics Course would be created and presented annually. This course would help develop a cadre of individuals who would serve as preceptors for the promotion of ethical research awareness among the various constituencies conducting basic and clinical research within the Health Sciences campus. Third, through focused surveys and inquiry, we would initiate intervention and outreach arms from the institutional hub to research venues in smaller communities within the state. Last, we wanted to establish an integrated evaluation process, which would include components of acute and extended monitoring of course content, implementation of program goals, participant response, and eventually, institutional change. Our presentation will briefly review the relative progress achieved toward these goals during the inaugural year of implementation. A practical early goal for our program was to first identify a nucleus of individuals with an interest in human research ethics. These individuals were asked to serve as facilitators, and were critically involved in developing the content for an integrated twelve-hour course on human research ethics. The course was presented in an interactive format consisting of six two-hour sessions occurring weekly. The invited participants in this course were comprised of individuals whose professional responsibilities included either direct senior investigator experience or oversight of human research in some capacity. Clarifying the semantics within the grant proposal, all invited attendees were considered to be students. At the conclusion of the course, they might then be considered to be preceptors. The evaluation team conducted preliminary surveys to assess institutional awareness of research-related ethics prior to the start of our program. This information set will be annually revised. In addition survey instruments, questionnaires, and focused interviews were conducted to critically assess the strengths, weaknesses, and impact of the Research Ethics Course. Directors of the program reviewed the conclusions of the evaluation team and modifications of course content, format, and structure are being implemented before offering the course the second time. More specifically, the invited participant list will include individuals from minority research programs, individuals involved in informed consent instruction, and principal investigators from the Schools of Pharmacy, Nursing, and Occupational Health. Ongoing strategic planning is identifying opportunities for focused outreach by preceptors during the second half of year 2000.
