 DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): The goal of the proposed Roybal Center is to build on the momentum we have created in the past 5 years to accelerate progress towards understanding mechanisms of behavior change using approaches from behavioral economics (Priority Area 1 for this Funding Opportunity Announcement and the thematic focus of our Center) and the consequences of such behavior change for health. We will build on existing relationships with Aetna, Independence Blue Cross, Humana, CVS Caremark, Weight Watchers International, the University of Pennsylvania Health System, and Discovery/Vitality to catalyze and support research that facilitates the translation of insights from behavioral economics to improve health care behaviors and health care delivery. This will be a collaborative effort involving clinical faculty from the University of Pennsylvania (UPENN) School of Medicine (SOM) as well as behavioral economists and psychologists from both the Wharton School and School of Arts and Sciences at UPENN, Carnegie Mellon University (CMU), and select collaborators from other Universities. Specific aims will be to: 1.) facilitate and support researc that advances translation of behavioral economic concepts to improve health behaviors and health care delivery, particularly as pertains to health among older adults; 2.) collaborate with health care organizations to design and test scalable interventions that can improve the health of large populations of patients; 3.) work with external health care organizations to disseminate our findings and support the implementation of effective interventions. The proposed Center will support a Management and Administrative (Admin) Core and a Pilot Core. The Administrative Core will help investigators find field sites for their research, provide general support and guidance, help investigators design studies using the Way to Health Platform, and continue to refine and improve mechanisms to enhance communication such as a dedicated website, listserv, works in progress seminars, and annual research retreats for Center faculty. The initial set of 6 pilot projects are all projects in 'real world' settings that impact the health of middle ged and older Americans, focusing on improving food choice, increasing physical activity, increasing the use of Advance Directives and number of organ donors, and improving medication adherence.

 描述（由申请人提供）：拟议的皇家中心的目标是建立在我们过去 5 年创造的势头的基础上，利用行为经济学的方法加速理解行为改变机制（本资助机会公告的优先领域 1 和我们中心的主题重点）以及这种行为改变对健康的影响。我们将利用与 Aetna、Independence Blue Cross、Humana、CVS Caremark、Weight Watchers International、宾夕法尼亚大学医疗系统和 Discovery/Vitality 的现有关系，促进和支持研究，促进行为经济学见解的转化，以改善医疗保健行为和医疗保健服务。这将是一项合作成果，涉及宾夕法尼亚大学 (UPENN) 医学院 (SOM) 的临床教师、沃顿商学院、UPENN 艺术与科学学院、卡内基梅隆大学 (CMU) 的行为经济学家和心理学家，以及来自其他大学的精选合作者。具体目标是： 1.) 促进和支持研究，促进行为经济学概念的转化，以改善健康行为和医疗保健服务，特别是与老年人健康有关的行为； 2.) 与医疗保健组织合作，设计和测试可扩展的干预措施，以改善大量患者的健康； 3.) 与外部医疗保健组织合作传播我们的研究结果并支持实施有效的干预措施。拟议的中心将支持一个管理和行政（行政）核心以及一个试点核心。行政核心将帮助研究人员找到研究的现场地点，提供一般支持和指导，帮助研究人员使用“健康之路”平台设计研究，并继续完善和改进加强沟通的机制，例如专门网站、列表服务、正在进行的研讨会和中心教员的年度研究务虚会。最初的 6 个试点项目都是在“现实世界”环境中影响中年和老年美国人健康的项目，重点是改善食物选择、增加身体活动、增加预先指示的使用和器官捐献者的数量，以及提高药物依从性。
