Society for Prevention Research Annual Meetings, 2022 - 2026

项目摘要 自1991年成立以来，预防研究协会（SPR）促进了增长， 预防科学领域的相关性。SPR在预防科学的身份中发挥了核心作用 形成一个独立的学科和专业化的领域。SPR致力于提高科学 在行为、心理和身体健康的各个方面进行预防干预。通过促进 开发新的方法和统计工具，SPR促进知识跨越时间， 纵向研究和预防试验。《国家预防战略》是国家预防战略的重要组成部分， 通过了《负担得起的医疗保健法》，作为解决可预防疾病原因问题的一种方式。 和死亡，并将预防提升为国家的一个重要重点。预防的重要性在于 进一步突出的是，在十大死亡原因中，有七个是基于行为的， 可预防的：吸烟、不良饮食和缺乏体育活动、饮酒、车祸， 枪支使用、不安全/无保护的性行为和非法药物使用。这些行为问题，如果不是 如果不加以预防，就可能在生命过程中感受到它们的存在，并导致发病和死亡。 SPR的年会在促进预防科学作为一个跨学科领域方面发挥了重要作用， 将科学家聚集在一起，促进理论、方法和干预措施的相互促进，目标是 建立科学的有效战略，促进健康和预防。会议以科学为特色 这直接解决了NIH行为改变科学路线图中提出的一些关键需求 会议，包括（1）使用多层次方法和了解环境影响 （2）使用针对多种结果和行为的方法;（3）由一个 发展的观点，（4）研究，以更好地了解行为改变的机制; （5）研究创新方法的开发、推广和应用。此外，会议和 SPR的战略计划与许多NIH计划有协同作用，包括数据科学，消除健康 差距，并将循证预防方案转化为实践环境。符合 根据SPR的战略目标，本建议的R13应用程序的目标是：目标1。利用年会 进一步发展一个集中统一的科学论坛，以交流新的概念、方法和成果 预防研究和相关领域;目标2。支持下一代的发展 通过培训、职业建设和领导能力发展培养预防科学家;以及目标3。确保 年度会议产生的科学发展对公共卫生具有最大的影响和影响。

Project Summary Since its inception in 1991, the Society for Prevention Research (SPR) has galvanized the growth and relevance of the field of prevention science. SPR has played a central role in prevention science’s identity formation as a self-standing discipline and professionalization of the field. SPR strives to improve the science of prevention intervention across all dimensions of behavioral, mental and physical health. By fostering the development of new methodologies and statistical tools, SPR promotes knowledge across time with longitudinal studies and prevention trials. The National Prevention Strategy, an important component of the Affordable Health Care Act, was adopted as a way of addressing the problem of preventable causes of illness and death and elevating prevention as an important focus for the country. The importance of prevention is further underscored by the fact that of the top 10 leading causes of death, seven are behaviorally based and preventable: tobacco use, poor diet and physical inactivity, alcohol consumption, motor vehicle crashes, firearm use, unsafe/unprotected sexual behavior, and illicit drug use. These behavioral problems, if not prevented, can make their presence felt during the life course and lead to morbidity and mortality. SPR’s Annual Meeting fills an important role in promoting prevention science as a transdisciplinary field, bringing together scientists to promote cross-fertilization of theory, methods, and intervention with the goal of building the science of effective strategies for health promotion and prevention. The meeting features science that directly addresses a number of critical needs raised in the NIH Roadmap Science of Behavior Change Meeting, including (1) the use of multilevel approaches and understanding the effects of environmental contexts; (2) the use of approaches that target multiple outcomes and behaviors; (3) research informed by a developmental perspective, (4) research to better understand the mechanisms underlying behavior change; and (5) research on the development, dissemination, and use of innovative methods. Further, the meeting and SPR’s Strategic Plan have synergy with many NIH initiatives including data science, eliminating health disparities, and translating evidence-based prevention programs into practice settings. Consistent with SPR’s strategic goals, the aims of this proposed R13 application are to: Aim 1. Use the Annual Meeting to further develop a centrally integrated scientific forum for the exchange of new concepts, methods, and results from prevention research and related fields; Aim 2. Support the development of the next generation of prevention scientists through training, career building, and leadership development; and Aim 3. Ensure that the scientific developments emanating from the Annual Meeting have maximum reach and impact on public health.
