PROJECT SUMMARY CORE B: Behavioral Economics and Intervention Science (BEIS) Core The Vermont Center on Behavior and Health (VCBH) is dedicated to researching relationships between personal behavior patterns and risk for chronic disease and premature death. The overarching purpose of the Behavioral Economics and Intervention Sciences (BEIS) Core is to provide VCBH investigators with scientific and technical expertise and research infrastructure in three key areas. First, our Core's Decision-Making Module provides expertise in the study of behavioral choice and decision making, with an emphasis on investigating the core cognitive processes (e.g., executive functions) and biases in decision making that may increase vulnerability to risky health behaviors and undermine response to interventions. Toward this end, we have established the BEIS Core Assessment Service, wherein a highly-trained, mobile assessment team administers a comprehensive battery evaluating multiple domains of executive function and biased decision making that includes measures of attention, working memory, inhibition, error monitoring, and sensitivity to incentives, and temporal, probability, and social discounting of rewards. We customize assessment batteries so that they are tailored to the specific aims and population under investigation in individual studies, while also looking to facilitate and support thematically related research in behavioral economics across studies. Second, the BEIS Intervention Sciences Module provides unique expertise in the design and implementation of incentive-based and other behavioral and pharmacological interventions to promote health-related behavior change. We assist investigators in developing and tailoring interventions to the unique characteristics of the population and targeted risk behavior. We also have center expertise in the integration of technology with these interventions to increase their accessibility, while also potentially lowering treatment costs. Finally, our Core's Economic Modeling Module provides assistance with econometric analyses of interventions and health outcomes, including help with the preparation for and conduct of cost-effectiveness, cost-utility and cost-benefit analyses. This includes assistance in calculating the cost-offset associated with treatment outcomes (e.g., cost per life year gained, cost per quality-adjusted life years gained, net savings per dollar invested, and dollars saved per hospitalization case prevented). Taken together, the BEIS Core and its dedicated service modules will continue to provide the expertise and access to the assessments, interventions and technology, and economic modeling central to the research proposed within the VCBH and also across the UVM campus.

项目概要 核心 B：行为经济学和干预科学 (BEIS) 核心 佛蒙特州行为与健康中心 (VCBH) 致力于研究之间的关系 个人行为模式以及慢性病和过早死亡的风险。该组织的总体目标是 行为经济学和干预科学 (BEIS) 核心是为 VCBH 研究者提供科学的 以及三个关键领域的技术专长和研究基础设施。一、我们核心的决策 模块提供行为选择和决策研究的专业知识，重点是 研究核心认知过程（例如执行功能）和决策中可能存在的偏见 增加对危险健康行为的脆弱性并削弱对干预措施的反应。为此，我们 建立了 BEIS 核心评估服务，其中有一支训练有素的流动评估团队 管理一个全面的电池组，评估执行功能的多个领域和有偏见的决策 包括注意力、工作记忆、抑制、错误监控和敏感度的测量 激励，以及奖励的时间、概率和社会贴现。我们定制评估电池 以便它们适合个别研究中调查的具体目标和人群，同时也 希望促进和支持跨研究的行为经济学主题相关研究。第二， BEIS 干预科学模块提供了设计和实施方面的独特专业知识 基于激励的行为和药物干预措施，以促进健康相关行为 改变。我们协助研究人员根据患者的独特特征制定和定制干预措施 人口和目标风险行为。我们还拥有技术集成方面的中心专业知识 这些干预措施可提高其可及性，同时也有可能降低治疗成本。最后，我们的 Core 的经济建模模块为干预措施和健康的计量经济分析提供帮助 成果，包括帮助准备和实施成本效益、成本效用和成本效益 分析。这包括协助计算与治疗结果相关的成本抵消（例如， 每获得生命年的成本、获得的每质量调整生命年的成本、每投资美元的净节省额以及美元 每预防一次住院病例即可节省）。总而言之，BEIS 核心及其专用服务模块 将继续提供专业知识以及获得评估、干预措施和技术的机会，并且 经济模型是 VCBH 和 UVM 校园内提出的研究的核心。
