DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): The long-term goal of this application is to improve the quality and utility of disaster mental health research so that victims of disasters are better understood and served. The educational goals of the proposed project are to inform, instruct, advise, and mentor disaster researchers. Each educational goal is addressed by two educational strategies denoted as proactive and reactive, depending upon whether the research education is offered before (i.e., independent of) or after a focal event. The informational goal is met by creating a specialized website on which comprehensive and up-to-date information on the state of the art in disaster research is easily, readily, and consistently available to the scientific community and other interested parties. The instructional goal is met by creating and piloting educational materials to be used in graduate/professional seminars and post disaster research workshops, including a comprehensive textbook and a CD-ROM series of master lectures. The advisement goal is met by providing consultation to individual investigators seeking specific methodological or practical advice about conducting or proposing to conduct disaster mental health research. The mentoring goal is met by implementing a grant program for 16 promising individuals (over the course of the project) who develop interest and show aptitude in careers in disaster mental health research. Ten aspects of this mentoring program are described: (1) faculty orientation and training; (2) mentee's submission of research prospectus; (3) mentor selection; (4) mentee orientation/scholarship development; (5) mentoring/application development; (6) "science to practice" consultation/collaboration development; (7) ongoing monitoring; (8) problem resolution/reassignment (when applicable); (9) group meetings; and (10) commencement. The program's faculty is composed of a nationwide panel of experts who represent a range of disciplinary perspectives, research skills, cultural understandings, and real-world experiences. A smaller group of specialized consultants helps the program to bridge the worlds of research and practice. To evaluate the impact of the program, methods drawn from the fields of education, communication, and information science are used. These include criterion based evaluations, consumer surveys, and quasi-experimental designs, among other approaches.

描述（由申请人提供）：本申请的长期目标是提高灾害心理健康研究的质量和实用性，以便更好地了解和服务灾害受害者。拟议项目的教育目标是为灾害研究人员提供信息、指导、建议和指导。每个教育目标都通过两种教育策略来实现，即主动式和被动式，具体取决于研究教育是在焦点事件之前（即独立于）还是之后提供。信息目标是通过创建一个专门的网站来实现的，科学界和其他感兴趣的各方可以在该网站上轻松、容易、一致地获得有关灾害研究最新技术水平的全面且最新的信息。教学目标是通过创建和试行用于研究生/专业研讨会和灾后研究研讨会的教育材料来实现的，其中包括一本综合教科书和一系列大师讲座的光盘。通过向个别调查人员提供咨询来实现建议目标，以寻求有关进行或提议进行灾难心理健康研究的具体方法或实用建议。通过为 16 名有前途的个人（在项目过程中）实施资助计划来实现指导目标，这些人对灾难心理健康研究产生了兴趣并表现出职业能力。该指导计划的十个方面进行了描述：（1）教师定向和培训； （二）受训者提交研究计划书； （3）导师的选择； (4) 学员定向/奖学金发展； (5) 指导/应用程序开发； （6）“科学实践”咨询/合作发展； （七）持续监测； (8) 问题解决/重新分配（如适用）； （九）小组会议； (10) 开始。该项目的教师由全国范围内的专家小组组成，他们代表了一系列学科观点、研究技能、文化理解和现实经验。一小群专业顾问帮助该项目架起研究和实践世界的桥梁。为了评估该计划的影响，使用了来自教育、传播和信息科学领域的方法。其中包括基于标准的评估、消费者调查和准实验设计等方法。
