PROJECT SUMMARY The proposed research and training in this K01 Mentored Research Scientist Development Award application are intended to help the PI, Dr. Christian Vazquez Ph.D., become a prolific NIA-funded researcher that works with underserved aging Latino communities to improve their health by maximizing their use of eHealth and increasing eHealth literacy. The proposed work responds to NIA’s Health Disparities Research Framework to focus on strategies to increase the inclusion of underrepresented populations in aging research. Candidate: The PI is an Assistant Professor at the University of Texas at Arlington (UTA) School of Social Work. The PI’s research is focused on the intersection of aging, Latinos, and eHealth. This area is timely given the racial/ethnic inequities highlighted during COVID as the use of technology in health became ubiquitous. The PI’s long-term goal is to become a leader in the development and implementation of eHealth interventions with Spanish-speaking Latinos in the US, via consistent funding from NIA. Environment: UTA provides all the resources commonly found at Research 1 universities to aid in the completion of the proposed studies. UTA also provides a rich environment for formal and informal training in career development. Research: The proposed research covers three aims. In aim 1, the PI will identify barriers between Spanish-preferred older adults and use of eHealth by carrying out: 1a) a systematic literature review on the topic of eHealth interventions with US-based Spanish-speaking Latinos and 1b) a qualitative study using Photovoice method, in which participants will take photos to answer: What are examples of successful health information communication? Spanish-preferred older adult Latinos will take photos of health information they see on TV, online, in a doctor’s office, etc. to provide their perspective on what health information communication patterns may be useful in eHealth training. Aim 2 includes culturally and linguistically adapting an evidence-based English-language intervention to increase older adults’ eHealth literacy. The adaptation will focus on cultural factors such as religion, family, forms of respect, and Latino diversity (e.g., country of origin, length of time in the US). In aim 3, The PI will assess the feasibility and acceptability of the adapted intervention with Spanish- preferred older adult Latinos. Career Development: This award will support the PI’s career development by building on his existing training in Latino health disparities and quantitative methods. The career development plan includes mentored training, didactic coursework, and other career development opportunities guided by three training goals: a) understand barriers to Spanish-speaking older adults’ engagement in eHealth and eHealth interventions, b) learn how to culturally adapt an English-language intervention for Spanish-preferred older adults, and c) learn to implement and assess feasibility and acceptability of an adapted intervention. Combined with a rigorous training plan, working with top experts in the fields of aging, Latino/a health, implementation science, and technology-based intervention development, this proposal will generate novel data to justify a future R01 proposal to advance aging research with underrepresented populations and assess the efficacy of the intervention with a larger sample.

项目摘要 K 01指导研究科学家发展奖申请中建议的研究和培训是 旨在帮助私家侦探克里斯蒂安·巴斯克斯博士成为一个多产的国家情报局资助的研究人员， 服务不足的老龄化拉丁裔社区，以改善他们的健康，最大限度地利用电子健康， 电子卫生知识。拟议的工作响应NIA的健康差异研究框架，重点是 增加老龄化研究中代表性不足人口的纳入战略。候选人：PI是 德克萨斯大学阿灵顿分校社会工作学院助理教授。私家侦探的研究是 专注于老龄化、拉丁美洲人和电子健康的交叉点。考虑到种族/民族不平等，这一领域是及时的。 在新冠疫情期间，随着科技在健康领域的应用变得无处不在，PI的长期目标是 成为与讲西班牙语的拉丁美洲人一起开发和实施电子健康干预措施的领导者 在美国，通过NIA的持续资助。环境：UTA提供了所有常见的资源， 研究1大学，以帮助完成拟议的研究。UTA还提供了丰富的环境， 职业发展方面的正式和非正式培训。研究：拟议的研究涵盖三个目标。在aim中 1、PI将通过开展以下活动，确定西班牙偏好的老年人与使用电子健康之间的障碍：1a）a 对美国讲西班牙语的拉丁美洲人进行的关于电子健康干预主题的系统性文献综述，以及1b） 采用Photovoice方法的定性研究，参与者将拍照回答：什么是例子 成功的健康信息传播？西班牙人喜欢的老年人拉丁美洲人将采取健康的照片 他们在电视上看到的信息，在线，在医生的办公室等，以提供他们对什么健康信息的看法 通信模式可能在电子卫生培训中有用。目标2包括在文化和语言上适应 以证据为基础的英语干预，以提高老年人的电子健康素养。适应将集中在 文化因素，如宗教，家庭，尊重的形式，和拉丁美洲的多样性（例如，原产国，长度 时间在美国）。在目标3中，PI将评估适应性干预的可行性和可接受性， 更喜欢年长的拉丁裔。职业发展：该奖项将通过建立 他在拉丁美洲健康差异和定量方法方面的现有培训。职业发展计划包括 指导培训、教学课程和其他职业发展机会，以三个培训目标为指导： a）了解讲西班牙语的老年人参与电子卫生和电子卫生干预措施的障碍，B） 学习如何在文化上适应西班牙语偏好的老年人的英语干预，以及c）学习 实施并评估适应性干预措施可行性和可接受性。加上严格的训练 计划，与老龄化，拉丁美洲/健康，实施科学和技术为基础的领域的顶级专家合作 干预发展，该提案将产生新的数据，以证明未来R 01提案的合理性，以促进老龄化 研究代表性不足的人群，并评估干预措施的有效性与更大的样本。
