DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): The Morehouse School of Medicine Prevention Research Center (MSM PRC) seeks continued funding through the 2014-2019 period. MSM PRC conducts interdisciplinary community-based prevention research in African American and other minority communities; trains minority community-based researchers and public health practitioners; and demonstrates the value of community coalitions in conducting research. MSM PRC is governed by a Community Coalition Board (CCB) that represents a partnership between the City of Atlanta's Neighborhood Planning Units T, V, X, Y and Z, three academic institutions and seven agencies (inclusive of state and local health departments). The CCB serves as a governing body with the majority being comprised of community residents and its Chair is always a community representative. Our research addresses priorities set by the CCB and the leading causes of health disparities and health problems in their communities. The proposed core intervention research project seeks to expand MSM PRC's research scope and focus on HIV and other sexually transmitted infections (STI's) among adolescents ages 14-18. The research to be undertaken is designed to address gaps in the efficacy and effectiveness literature related to HIV and STI prevention among African American youth. This research will address gender differences, the efficacy of a multi-component intervention vs. a single component intervention, and the efficacy of including parents in the intervention. We propose a health promotion research intervention that will reach youth at local Boys and Girls Clubs, YMCA's and community organizations using social media in a major social marketing campaign. The research will compare the effectiveness of four aims. Aim #1 will use the "Be a Responsible Teen" intervention; Aim #2 will include a social marketing intervention and a parental component; Aim #3 will be based on the HIV-RAAP intervention and will incorporate media literacy; and Aim #4 will constitute a comparison group. Ecological, Social Cognitive, and Cultivation theories and models will guide this research.

描述（由申请人提供）：医学预防研究中心（MSM中国）的莫尔豪斯学校寻求通过2014-2019年期间继续资助。MSM PRC在非裔美国人和其他少数民族社区开展跨学科的社区预防研究;培训少数民族社区研究人员和公共卫生从业人员;并展示社区联盟在开展研究中的价值。MSM PRC由社区联盟委员会（CCB）管理，该委员会代表亚特兰大市社区规划单位T，V，X，Y和Z，三个学术机构和七个机构（包括州和地方卫生部门）之间的伙伴关系。社区协调委员会是一个管理机构，大多数成员由社区居民组成，其主席始终是社区代表。我们的研究解决了CCB设定的优先事项以及社区健康差距和健康问题的主要原因。 拟议的核心干预研究项目旨在扩大MSM PRC的研究范围，重点关注14-18岁青少年中的艾滋病毒和其他性传播感染（STI）。将开展的研究旨在解决与非洲裔美国青年中艾滋病毒和性传播感染预防有关的功效和效力文献中的差距。这项研究将解决性别差异，多成分干预与单一成分干预的有效性，以及将父母纳入干预的有效性。 我们提出了一个健康促进研究干预，将达到青年在当地的男孩和女孩俱乐部，基督教青年会和社区组织使用社交媒体在一个重大的社会营销活动。本研究将比较四个目标的有效性。目标1将采用“做一个负责任的青少年”的干预措施;目标2将包括社会营销干预措施和父母组成部分;目标3将以艾滋病毒-RAAP干预措施为基础，并将纳入媒体扫盲;目标4将构成一个比较组。生态学、社会认知学和培养学的理论和模型将指导本研究。
