Although the President's Commission identified schools as promising sites for early intervention with children manifesting aggressive behavior problems, the available evidence-based violence prevention programs (EBPs) are not readily adopted by schools. It is critical that we work in partnership with schools and school districts to bridge the gap between efficacy and effectiveness research by facilitating the process of EBP implementation and optimizing their impact in real world settings. The proposed Mentored Research Scientist Development Award (K01) will enable Dr. Catherine Bradshaw, a developmental psychologist, to design and conduct research that will increase the use and effectiveness of school-based violence prevention programs. The training takes place within a robust research environment that utilizes resources from 2 federally funded research centers, the CDC-funded Center for the Prevention of Youth Violence, directed by Dr. Philip Leaf, and the NIMH/NI DA funded Center for Prevention and Early Intervention, directed by Dr. Nicholas lalongo. The proposed training focuses on: 1) Developing skills and expertise in the design, implementation, and analysis of school-based violence prevention trials; 2) Applying formal decision-making models to the selection and implementation of EBPs to prevent youth violence. Drs. Leaf and lalongo will provide mentorship on youth violence and school-based prevention trials, Dr. David Murray will provide training on the design and analysis of group-randomized trials, and Dr. Harold Lehmann will provide training on informatics and decision support. The research plan builds on a CDC/NIMH-funded group-randomized trial of the Positive Behavioral Interventions and Supports (PBIS) school-wide universal prevention model and a state-wide network of over 600 schools implementing PBIS to: 1) Create a web-based risk and protective factors screening instrument to guide an adaptive preventive intervention for children with aggressive behavior problems not responding to the universal PBIS program; 2) Implement and pilot a school-based adaptive preventive intervention for children with aggressive behavior problems. The objective of this research is to prevent youth violence by increasing dissemination and optimizing the effectiveness of school-based violence prevention programs. This award will prepare the PI for a career as an independent researcher focused on the implementation and effectiveness of school-based violence prevention programs.

虽然总统委员会认为学校是对表现出攻击性行为问题的儿童进行早期干预的有希望的场所，但现有的基于证据的暴力预防方案并不容易被学校采用。至关重要的是，我们与学校和学区合作，通过促进EBP实施过程并优化其在真实的世界环境中的影响，弥合功效和有效性研究之间的差距。拟议的指导研究科学家发展奖（K 01）将使凯瑟琳布拉德肖博士，发展心理学家，设计和进行研究，将增加基于学校的暴力预防计划的使用和有效性。培训是在一个强大的研究环境中进行的，该环境利用了来自2个联邦资助的研究中心的资源，即由Philip Leaf博士指导的CDC资助的预防青少年暴力中心，以及由NIMH/NI DA资助的预防和早期干预中心，由Nicholas lalongo博士指导。拟议的培训侧重于：1）发展设计，实施和分析基于学校的暴力预防试验的技能和专业知识; 2）将正式的决策模式应用于选择和实施预防青少年暴力的EBP。Leaf博士和lalongo博士将提供关于青少年暴力和学校预防试验的指导，大卫默里博士将提供关于分组随机试验设计和分析的培训，哈罗德莱曼博士将提供信息学和决策支持方面的培训。该研究计划建立在CDC/NIMH资助的积极行为干预和支持（PBIS）全校普遍预防模式的随机分组试验和全州600多所学校实施PBIS的网络基础上：1）创建基于网络的风险和保护因素筛查工具，以指导对普遍PBIS计划没有反应的攻击性行为问题儿童的适应性预防干预; 2）对有攻击性行为问题的儿童实施并试点以学校为基础的适应性预防干预。本研究的目的是通过加强传播和优化基于学校的暴力预防方案的有效性来预防青少年暴力。该奖项将为PI作为独立研究员的职业生涯做好准备，专注于学校暴力预防计划的实施和有效性。
