DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): This career development application proposes a mentored training and research experience to develop John Salsman, Ph.D., as an independent investigator in the development of innovative positive psychological outcome measures for cancer prevention and control. Patient-reported outcomes (PROs) capture the patient's unique perspective on the impact of chronic diseases such as cancer and assess subjective experience in ways distinct from physiological outcomes. The Patient-Reported Outcomes Measurement Information System (PROMIS) is an NIH Roadmap initiative designed to improve and standardize PROs for patients with a wide range of chronic diseases and demographic characteristics using state-of-the-art psychometric methods. It is an ambitious and comprehensive PRO measurement system that applies item response theory (IRT) modeling to health status assessment. PROMIS has developed and calibrated item banks assessing emotional distress, sleep-wake function, physical function, pain, fatigue, and social health. There remains a gap in the PROMIS domain framework, with no current banks assessing positive psychological functioning (PPF). As more people survive and even thrive with cancer, understanding positive adjustment and growth in cancer is an important complement to understanding impairment, disability and psychosocial morbidity in cancer prevention and control research. Dr. Salsman proposes (1) to develop new item banks for positive psychological functioning (PPF) to augment and expand the existing PROMIS item banks, (2) to explore the utility of the PPF banks across the cancer care continuum using multiple assessments with a heterogeneous group of cancer patients and survivors, and (3) to adapt and pilot test an intervention to promote well-being among young adult cancer patients and survivors to determine feasibility and acceptability. Results will lead to further refinement of innovative measures of PPF and guide development of future interventions to minimize the adverse impact of cancer and enhance adaptive functioning. The proposed research is supported by a training plan that involves interactions with multidisciplinary colleagues and formal coursework in clinical trials, qualitative methodologies, biostatistics, psychometrics, and positive psychology.

描述（由申请人提供）：此职业发展申请提出了一个指导培训和研究经验，以发展约翰萨尔斯曼，博士，作为一个独立的研究者，在癌症预防和控制的创新积极的心理结果的措施的发展。患者报告结局（PRO）捕捉患者对慢性疾病（如癌症）影响的独特观点，并以不同于生理结局的方式评估主观体验。患者报告结局测量信息系统（PROMIS）是NIH的一项路线图计划，旨在使用最先进的心理测量方法，改善和标准化具有各种慢性疾病和人口统计学特征的患者的PRO。这是一个雄心勃勃的和全面的PRO测量系统，应用项目反应理论（IRT）模型的健康状况评估。PROMIS开发和校准了评估情绪困扰、睡眠-觉醒功能、身体功能、疼痛、疲劳和社会健康的项目库。在PROMIS领域框架中仍然存在差距，目前没有评估积极心理功能（PPF）的银行。随着越来越多的人在癌症中生存甚至茁壮成长，了解癌症的积极调整和增长是对癌症预防和控制研究中了解损伤，残疾和心理社会发病率的重要补充。Salsman博士建议：（1）开发新的积极心理功能（PPF）项目库，以增强和扩展现有的PROMIS项目库，（2）使用多种评估方法探索PPF库在癌症护理连续体中的实用性，这些评估方法包括对癌症患者和幸存者的异质性评估，以及（3）调整和试点测试干预措施，以促进年轻成年癌症患者和幸存者的福祉，以确定可行性和可接受性。结果将导致进一步完善PPF的创新措施，并指导未来干预措施的制定，以最大限度地减少癌症的不利影响，增强适应功能。拟议的研究得到了一项培训计划的支持，该计划涉及与多学科同事的互动和临床领域的正式课程。 试验，定性方法，生物统计学，心理测量学和积极心理学。
