DESCRIPTION: (provided by applicant): This application describes our plans to create a National Center for Disaster Mental Health Research (NCDMHR) that is methodologically innovative, capable of rapid response, and responsive to the needs of scientific, policy, and practitioner communities. In Part I, Administrative and Scientific Resources, we address four central points: First, we describe our vision for the Center's work. We present a dynamic conceptual framework for disaster mental health research that re-directs attention to resilience and wellness, explicitly recognizes the critical role of time, is inherently interdisciplinary, and guides both epidemiologic and intervention research. The NCDMHR has the capacity to address several methodological and conceptual shortcomings in past disaster research. Second, we describe our institutional strengths. Truly creating a national Center, investigators from five prominent universities in four regions of the country have partnered for this effort. These affiliates bring exceptional expertise in epidemiology and survey research (Michigan), postdisaster services and clinical trials (Dartmouth/NCPTSD), genetics and neuroendocrinology (Yale/NCPTSD), secondary prevention (Medical University of South Carolina), and children (Oklahoma). Affiliates are well networked and have historic linkages to important consumers of disaster research. Third, we describe our administrative resources, including internal organization and management plan. Led by Fran Norris, PhD, a psychologist (Dartmouth/NCPTSD), and Sandro Galea, MD, DrPH, an epidemiologist (Michigan), the proposed Center has two research cores, four sections, boards of independent collaborators and policy advisors, and a research education arm, supported by existing research education (R25) and training (T32) grants. NCDMHR's structure of sections within cores allows for flexibility and future growth in the scope and aims of the Center. We outline past funded research to highlight our long history in the disaster field, blend of epidemiology and services research, and strong collaborative relationships. Fourth, we describe our exceptional scientific resources in survey research methods, statistical analysis, and laboratory facilities. Details of the research plan are provided in Part II (Epidemiology) and Part III (Services Research). The public health significance of the NCDMHR should be considerable because of its mission to facilitate the rigorous study and effective promotion of resilience and wellness in the context of disaster.

产品说明：（申请人提供）：该应用程序描述了我们的计划，以创建一个国家中心的灾难心理健康研究（NCDMHR）是方法创新，能够快速响应，并响应科学，政策和从业者社区的需求。在第一部分，行政和科学资源，我们解决四个中心点：第一，我们描述了我们对中心工作的愿景。我们为灾难心理健康研究提出了一个动态的概念框架，将人们的注意力重新导向复原力和健康，明确认识到时间的关键作用，本质上是跨学科的，并指导流行病学和干预研究。国家灾害管理和人权委员会有能力解决过去灾害研究中的若干方法和概念缺陷。其次，我们描述了我们的制度优势。为了真正创建一个国家中心，来自该国四个地区五所著名大学的研究人员为此努力进行了合作。这些附属机构带来了流行病学和调查研究（密歇根州）、灾后服务和临床试验（达特茅斯/NCPTSD）、遗传学和神经内分泌学（耶鲁/NCPTSD）、二级预防（南卡罗来纳州医科大学）和儿童（俄克拉荷马州）方面的卓越专业知识。各附属机构有着良好的网络，与灾害研究的重要消费者有着历史性的联系。第三，我们描述了我们的行政资源，包括内部组织和管理计划。拟建中心由心理学家Fran Norris博士（达特茅斯/NCPTSD）和流行病学家Sandro Galea医学博士、DrPH博士（密歇根州）领导，拥有两个研究核心、四个部门、独立合作者和政策顾问委员会以及一个研究教育部门，由现有的研究教育（R25）和培训（T32）赠款。NCDMHR的核心部分的结构允许灵活性和未来的增长在中心的范围和目标。我们概述了过去资助的研究，以突出我们在灾害领域的悠久历史，流行病学和服务研究的融合，以及强大的合作关系。第四，我们描述了我们在调查研究方法，统计分析和实验室设施方面的卓越科学资源。研究计划的详情载于第II部分（流行病学）和第III部分（服务研究）。国家灾害管理和人权委员会的公共卫生意义应该是相当大的，因为它的使命是促进严格的研究和有效促进灾害背景下的复原力和健康。
