DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): This application requests a NIAAA Mentored Research Scientist Development Award (K01) for Dr. Mildred M. Maldonado-Molina. The candidate will develop a research program to reduce health disparities in alcohol use and alcohol-related consequences. With support from a K-award, Dr. Maldonado-Molina will become an advanced methodologist in the alcohol field in terms of analyses of hierarchical and intensively longitudinal data (i.e., hundreds of repeated observations across multiple groups nested in multiple levels). Dr. Maldonado-Molina's career development goals are: (1) increase knowledge in statistical methods to handle complex hierarchical and longitudinally intensive data (applied to the study of health disparities in alcohol epidemiology); (2) increase skills to disseminate findings on alcohol prevention research to the scientific community; and (3) develop independent research proposals. These goals will be achieved through (1) receiving mentored research experiences; (2) participating in coursework, workshops, and other structured didactic activities; and (3) addressing specific aims of the proposed research project. The proposed research uses hierarchical and intensive longitudinal data to examine whether alcohol exposure and alcohol policies might exacerbate or attenuate disparities in alcohol use and alcohol-related mortality across subgroups of the population (e.g. gender, ethnicity, age groups). The research plan is guided by two aims: (1) test effects of exposure and sources of alcohol (e.g., parents, friends, commercial) on trajectories of alcohol use among adolescents across gender and ethnic subgroups; and (2) test effects of selected alcohol policies in reducing health disparities in traffic crash mortality from 1976 to 2002. In sum, Dr. Maldonado- Molina will: (1) develop a research agenda to reduce health disparities in alcohol use and alcohol-related consequences; (2) receive training to handle hierarchical and longitudinally intensive data; (3) increase her ability to successfully develop independent research projects; and most importantly, (4) make the transition to an independent researcher who can improve the health of the population by reducing health disparities in alcohol use and alcohol-related morbidity and mortality across subgroups in the United States. Public Health Relevance: With support from this award, the candidate will develop a research program to reduce health disparities in alcohol-related morbidity and mortality among adolescents and adults. She will also become an advanced methodologist in the alcohol field in terms of analyses of intensively longitudinal and time-series data (i.e., hundreds of repeated observations across multiple groups nested in multiple levels).

描述（由申请人提供）：本申请要求NIAAA指导研究科学家发展奖（K 01）博士米尔德里德M。马尔多纳多-莫利纳候选人将制定一项研究计划，以减少酒精使用和酒精相关后果的健康差异。在K奖的支持下，Maldonado-Molina博士将成为酒精领域的高级方法学家，分析分层和密集的纵向数据（即，在嵌套在多个水平中的多个组中的数百个重复观察）。Maldonado-Molina博士的职业发展目标是：（1）增加统计方法的知识，以处理复杂的分层和纵向密集的数据（应用于酒精流行病学中的健康差异研究）;（2）提高技能，向科学界传播酒精预防研究的结果;（3）制定独立的研究建议。这些目标将通过以下方式实现：（1）接受指导的研究经验;（2）参加课程，研讨会和其他结构化教学活动;（3）解决拟议研究项目的具体目标。拟议的研究使用分层和密集的纵向数据，以检查酒精暴露和酒精政策是否可能加剧或削弱人口亚组（例如性别，种族，年龄组）之间的酒精使用和酒精相关死亡率的差异。研究计划有两个目标：（1）测试暴露和酒精来源的影响（例如，父母，朋友，商业）的轨迹，酒精使用的青少年跨性别和种族亚组;（2）测试效果，选定的酒精政策，在减少健康差距的交通事故死亡率从1976年至2002年。总之，马尔多纳多-莫利纳博士将：（1）制定一项研究议程，以减少酒精使用和酒精相关后果的健康差异;（2）接受培训，以处理分层和纵向密集型数据;（3）提高她成功开发独立研究项目的能力;最重要的是，（4）过渡到一个独立的研究人员，可以通过减少酒精使用和酒精的健康差异来改善人口的健康状况-美国各亚组的相关发病率和死亡率。 公共卫生相关性：在该奖项的支持下，候选人将制定一项研究计划，以减少青少年和成年人与酒精相关的发病率和死亡率的健康差异。她还将成为酒精领域的高级方法学家，分析密集的纵向和时间序列数据（即， 在嵌套在多个水平中的多个组中的数百个重复观察）。
