DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): Although there has been recent attention to the correlates, mediators and outcomes of relapse prevention/management, this field of research is still in its infancy. The goal of the Maintenance and Sustainability Resource Center (MSRC) is to provide direction to the behavioral health field by bringing together disparate theories of processes of change, relapse prevention, and ecological/multi-level contextual approaches to further understand the long-term maintenance of behavioral change and effective sustainable strategies for achieving health promotion and disease prevention goals. Working collaboratively with NIH program administrators and investigators funded under the Maintenance of Long Term Behavior Change (MLTBC) RFA, the MSRC is designed to facilitate success of individual grantees and to push the boundaries of current research on behavioral processes and change research. The centralization and coordination of functions offers an economy of scale, and foci for building research and practice capacity. The MSRC team has substantial technical knowledge of health behavior and behavior change processes as well as previous experience in health behavior intervention research. The MSRC has identified four interrelated aims to advance behavioral change research beyond the individual funded studies. Utilizing both internal and external advisors, the MSRC will create a scientific and administrative infrastructure to: 1) Foster ongoing cross-site communications among projects funded under the MLTBC RFA; 2) Provide technical assistance to identify common questions, methods, and measures related to maintenance and sustainability and to address cross-cutting issues that add synergy to individual MLTBC projects; 3) Establish a central clearinghouse for behavioral change concepts, assessment instruments, intervention protocols, methods and data emanating from these projects that can be beneficial for other researchers and practitioners; and 4) Disseminate research findings and tools on-line and through listservs, workshops, and symposia to increase their availability to both researchers and practitioners. While individual studies can add to this new science, a collection of coordinated studies around this common theme of maintenance of long-term behavior has the potential for making a significant impact on the nation's health and well being.

描述（由申请人提供）：虽然最近已经注意到复发预防/管理的相关因素，介质和结果，但这一研究领域仍处于起步阶段。维护和可持续性资源中心（MSRC）的目标是通过将不同的变化过程理论，复发预防和生态/多层次的上下文方法结合在一起，为行为健康领域提供方向，以进一步了解行为变化的长期维护和实现健康促进和疾病预防目标的有效可持续战略。与NIH项目管理人员和长期行为改变维持（MLTBC）RFA资助的研究人员合作，MSRC旨在促进个人受赠者的成功，并推动当前行为过程和变化研究研究的界限。职能的集中和协调提供了规模经济，并为建设研究和实践能力提供了重点。MSRC团队拥有健康行为和行为改变过程的大量技术知识，以及之前在健康行为干预研究方面的经验。MSRC确定了四个相互关联的目标，以推动行为改变研究超越个人资助的研究。利用内部和外部顾问，MSRC将创建一个科学和行政基础设施，以：1）促进MLTBC RFA资助的项目之间的持续跨站点通信; 2）提供技术援助，以确定与维护和可持续性相关的常见问题，方法和措施，并解决增加MLTBC单个项目协同作用的跨领域问题; 3）建立一个行为改变概念、评估工具、干预协议、方法和数据的中央信息交换所，这些项目可以为其他研究人员和从业人员带来好处;和4）在线和通过名录服务、讲习班，和研讨会，以增加研究人员和从业人员的可用性。虽然个别研究可以增加这一新科学，但围绕维持长期行为这一共同主题的协调研究的集合有可能对国家的健康和福祉产生重大影响。
