PROJECT SUMMARY Ms. McKenzie Reese is an undergraduate researcher at Loyola Marymount University (LMU) seeking additional training, mentorship, and career development in psycho-oncology research. This diversity supplement will support Ms. Reese to contribute to an ongoing pilot RCT of an adapted Mindful Self- Compassion intervention that aims to reduce stigma among adults with lung cancer (R00CA256351). Given the racial disparity in the incidence of lung cancer, it is important to promote full representation of African American patients in cancer research. However, African American cancer patients are less likely to enroll in clinical trials and experience higher attrition in longitudinal psycho-oncology research, as compared to White patients. As such, there is a crucial need to identify strategies that promote the recruitment, engagement, and retention of African American cancer patients in psycho-oncology research. In this project, the candidate will address this need by 1) assessing whether culturally-relevant messages and images within the parent study’s Facebook Targeted Advertisement recruitment strategy will promote research participation among African American lung cancer patients and 2) evaluating motivational factors that underlie patients’ continued participation in the parent study by analyzing qualitative interviews post-intervention. Alongside these research aims, the candidate will pursue mentoring and career development activities to gain fundamental and advanced research skills in psycho-oncology, which will accelerate the candidate’s trajectory toward a career in cancer research. These aims are aligned with NCI’s 2023 annual plan for breaking down barriers to clinical trial participation and the goals of NCI’s Equity and Inclusion Program. Successful completion of this project will provide the candidate with the opportunity to see a research project through from recruitment to dissemination, receive in-depth research training, and participate in career development workshops that will enhance her competitiveness and preparation for graduate programs in psychology, thereby supporting her long-term goal of becoming an independent scientist focused on reducing cancer-related health disparities.

项目摘要 女士McKenzie Reese是Loyola Marymount大学（LMU）的本科研究员， 心理肿瘤学研究方面的额外培训、指导和职业发展。这种多样性 补充将支持Reese女士为正在进行的适应性正念自我的试点RCT做出贡献， 旨在减少肺癌成人患者耻辱感的综合干预（R00CA256351）。给定 肺癌发病率的种族差异，重要的是要促进非洲人的充分代表性， 美国癌症患者研究。然而，非洲裔美国人癌症患者不太可能参加 与白色相比，在纵向心理肿瘤学研究中， 患者因此，迫切需要确定促进征聘、参与和 非裔美国人癌症患者在心理肿瘤学研究中的保留。在这个项目中，候选人将 通过以下方式满足这一需求：1）评估母研究中的文化相关信息和图像 Facebook定向广告招募策略将促进非洲人的研究参与 美国肺癌患者和2）评估的动机因素，患者的持续 通过分析干预后的定性访谈参与家长研究。除了这些研究 目标，候选人将追求指导和职业发展活动，以获得基本的， 在心理肿瘤学先进的研究技能，这将加速候选人的职业生涯轨迹 在癌症研究中。这些目标与NCI的2023年年度计划保持一致，以打破临床应用的障碍。 试验参与和NCI的公平和包容计划的目标。顺利完成该项目 将为候选人提供从招聘到完成研究项目的机会， 传播，接受深入的研究培训，并参加职业发展讲习班， 提高她的竞争力和心理学研究生课程的准备，从而支持她 长期目标是成为一名独立的科学家，专注于减少癌症相关的健康差距。
