DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): Chiropractors holding the belief that research and evidence-based medicine (EBM) are important skills, who have learned to define and pose clinically relevant questions and locate and critically interpret scientific literature, will be best prepared to use evidence to improve their clinical practice. However, most of the faculty at Palmer College of Chiropractic (PCC) are not trained in research and EBM and the curriculum does not effectively integrate and reinforce the concepts throughout the Doctor of Chiropractic (DC) program. Most faculty do not engage in research and are therefore ill-prepared to teach the value of research. We propose to meet the goals of the National Center for Complementary and Alternative Medicine Program "CAM Practitioner Research Education Project Grant Partnership" to formally increase the research content in CAM institutions. We are partnering with two highly regarded conventional institutions, the University of Iowa and Thomas Jefferson University, to develop and implement 4 specific aims. We will significantly expand the expertise at the Palmer Center for Chiropractic Research to the rest of the Palmer program. The first aim is to enhance faculty attitudes and increase faculty knowledge and skills regarding EBM principles and education. We will develop and implement an EBM training program. The second aim is to enhance students' attitudes and increase students' knowledge and sills regarding EBM principles. We will incorporate EBM principles training into the curriculum for the DC program. The third aim is to train and support faculty and students to conduct clinical research by building on our existing K30-supported Clinical Research program and expanding other programs. Finally, for the fourth aim we will evaluate changes in faculty and student attitudes, knowledge and skills concerning EBM principles and assess changes in Palmer's training and support for student and faculty involvement in clinical research. The long-range goal is to institutionalize the attitudes, knowledge and skills of research and EBM at PCC, and to model the process for other CAM professions.

描述（由申请人提供）：脊医相信研究和循证医学（EBM）是重要的技能，他们学会了定义和提出临床相关的问题，定位和批判性地解释科学文献，将为利用证据改善他们的临床实践做好最好的准备。然而，帕尔默捏脊医学学院（PCC）的大多数教师都没有接受过研究和循证医学方面的培训，课程也没有有效地整合和加强整个捏脊医学博士（DC）项目的概念。大多数教师不从事研究，因此在教授研究的价值方面准备不足。我们建议满足国家补充与替代医学中心项目“CAM从业者研究教育项目资助伙伴关系”的目标，正式增加CAM机构的研究内容。我们正在与爱荷华大学（University of Iowa）和托马斯·杰斐逊大学（Thomas Jefferson University）这两所备受推崇的传统院校合作，以制定和实施具体目标。我们将把帕尔默脊椎指压研究中心的专业知识扩展到帕尔默项目的其余部分。第一个目标是提高教师的态度，增加教师对循证医学原则和教育的知识和技能。我们将制定和实施循证医学培训计划。第二个目标是提高学生对循证医学原则的态度，增加学生的知识和技能。我们将把循证医学原则培训纳入DC项目的课程中。第三个目标是通过建立我们现有的k30支持的临床研究项目和扩展其他项目，培训和支持教师和学生进行临床研究。最后，对于第四个目标，我们将评估教师和学生对循证医学原则的态度、知识和技能的变化，并评估帕尔默对学生和教师参与临床研究的培训和支持的变化。长期目标是使PCC的研究和循证医学的态度、知识和技能制度化，并为其他CAM职业的过程树立榜样。
