DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): Significant time, money, and effort have been dedicated to achieving equity in representation in STEM training and research careers, yet the indicators of success have been mixed. Attendees of the 2007 Understanding Interventions That Encourage Minorities to Pursue Research Careers Workshop pointed out the tasks that must be accomplished to advance research-based interventions and thus the diversification of individuals in STEM careers: on-going review of interventions research; development of appropriate research questions; technical assistance for effective intervention research methodologies; encouragement of a community of intervention researchers. Building on their prior organization of three Understanding Interventions conferences, Long Island University and the American Association for the Advancement of Science, propose a five-year (7/1/2012- 6/30/2017) Understanding Interventions Project. The long-term goal is to increase the number of underrepresented minorities in STEM research careers; the objectives are to provide venues and platforms to promote the work needed to accomplish the tasks delineated in 2007. The project is significant because it will advance the "identification of contributing factors and practices" that determine interventions' effectiveness in increasing underrepresented minorities in STEM research careers. An annual conference will provide: A) a venue for dissemination of interventions research; B) opportunities for researchers/practitioners to interact and collaborate; C) a mechanism for discourse on research-based interventions' implementation across modalities, stages and venues. An enhanced and interactive Understanding Interventions website will provide additional linkage of the understanding interventions (UI) community as well as an accessible and searchable internet-based annotated database of Interventions research articles and resources; both will expand the dissemination of broadening participation research. A quarterly online/email-based newsletter that distills and disseminates research findings, development opportunities, and general announcements will provide an additional platform for dissemination of interventions research. Social/behavioral sciences and student affairs professional societies and organizations such as the American Association of University Professors, American Association of State Colleges and Universities, and American Association of Universities that influence higher education will be added to the annual conference list and they will receive the newsletter. Achieving the objectives will significantly increase the research based interventions community, its linkages, and its sphere of influence and thereby assist in achieving the goal of increasing the number of underrepresented minorities in STEM research careers.

描述（由申请人提供）：大量的时间，金钱和努力已致力于在STEM培训和研究职业中实现代表权的公平性，但成功的指标却混杂在一起。 2007年理解干预措施的参与者鼓励少数群体从事研究职业研讨会，指出了要推进基于研究的干预措施的任务，从而完成了STEM职业中个人的多样化：对干预研究的持续审查；提出适当的研究问题；有效干预研究方法的技术援助；鼓励干预研究人员社区。在他们先前组织三个理解干预会议的基础上，长岛大学和美国科学发展协会提出了为期五年（7/1/2012- 6/30/2017）理解干预项目。长期目标是增加STEM研究职业中代表性不足的少数群体的数量；这些目标是提供场地和平台，以促进完成2007年划定的任务所需的工作。该项目非常重要，因为它将推动“确定促成因素和实践的识别”，从而确定干预措施在增加STEM研究职业中代表性不足的少数群体方面的有效性。年度会议将提供：a）开展干预研究的场所； b）研究人员/从业人员进行互动和协作的机会； c）关于跨越模式，阶段和场地的基于研究干预措施实施的论述的机制。增强和互动的理解干预措施网站将提供有关理解干预措施（UI）社区以及可访问且基于Internet的注释的研究文章和资源数据库的其他链接；两者都将扩大扩大参与研究的传播。季度在线/基于电子邮件的新闻通讯，可提炼和传播研究发现，开发机会和一般性公告，将为开展干预研究的额外平台提供一个额外的平台。社会/行为科学和学生事务专业社会和组织，例如美国大学教授协会，美国州立大学和大学协会以及影响高等教育的美国大学协会，并将收到新闻通讯。实现目标将大大增加研究 基于干预措施社区，其联系及其影响力领域，从而有助于实现增加STEM研究职业中代表性不足的少数群体数量的目标。
