Archiving for Minority Health: Documenting the National Couples' Health and Time Study

项目摘要 NICHD支持的国家夫妇健康和时间研究(NCHAT)是对相同- 而不同性别的夫妇是在美国历史上的关键时期收集的，当时COVID和种族主义都是 强烈地感觉到了。这是一项对美国夫妇进行的全面研究，包括具有人口代表性的 少数族裔和性少数群体。这些数据是此类数据中的第一个，是无与伦比的 社会科学家的调查资源、时间日记、经验抽样方法、二元数据和地理空间数据 跨越了一系列学科。NCHAT的快速记录和传播对于允许社会 科学界利用这些前沿数据进行及时、急需的分析。NCHAT是 独一无二地适用于解决COVID创伤、种族创伤、家庭功能以及身心健康 包括大量关于种族和种族主义、性别歧视和异性恋的背景和尖锐的衡量标准。这个 数据包括2992名主要受访者和1232名合作伙伴受访者的调查数据。超过一半的样本 认为自己是性少数，15%的人认为是拉丁裔，12%的人认为是黑人。大约三分之一是同性 两性关系。这些数据对于使数据分析能够识别潜在的候选机制至关重要 大流行期间的少数群体、种族和民族健康差距以及加剧或 缓解了这些差距。这项提议寻求自由和广泛地分发这些新颖的数据，同时提供 特殊的用户支持，确保它得到广泛使用。利用社会研究所的基础设施 和数据创新(ISRDI)在明尼苏达大学-明尼苏达州人口中心和 IPUMS-我们的目标是使数据公开，并建立一个安全的数据飞地，以便研究人员 访问包括地理空间数据在内的受限使用数据。这个项目有四个具体目标：目标1.生产 详细的文件和道德使用培训模块；目标2.创建“NCHAT门户”，一个基于网络的 发布主要NCHAT调查数据的平台；目标3.设计和维护安全的飞地环境 分发合作伙伴、时间日记、体验抽样方法和地理空间数据；目标4.支持NCHAT用户 并建立NCHAT用户大会。这些数据对众多研究人员来说将是无价的， 包括公共卫生、社会学、人类发展、心理学和地理学。由于不平等 在世卫组织接受研究经费的情况下，许多边缘化学者和研究边缘化的学者 人口中的大多数人无法获得完全强大的数据集。因此，确定健康的根本原因 差距仍然很大。人口健康研究迫切需要从关注边缘化转向 身份，如种族，是关注边缘化的根本原因的一个风险因素，如种族主义，如 风险因素。随着NCHAT数据的广泛传播和对NCHAT用户的支持，关键人口健康 我们将回答问题，并为我们的一些最重要的 紧迫的公共卫生问题将被识别和告知。

Project Summary The NICHD-supported National Couples' Health and Time Study (NCHAT) is a rich multi-method study of same- and different-gender couples collected during a pivotal time in U.S. history, when both COVID and racism were acutely felt. It is a fully-powered study of American couples that includes population-representative samples of racial and ethnic minorities and sexual minorities. These data are the first of their kind and are an unparalleled resource of survey, time diary, experience sampling method, dyadic, and geospatial data for social scientists across a range of disciplines. Rapid documentation and dissemination of NCHAT are essential to allow the social science community to conduct timely, urgently-needed analyses with these cutting-edge data. NCHAT is uniquely suited to address COVID trauma, racial trauma, family functioning, and physical and mental health and includes an abundance of contextual and acute measures of race and racism, sexism, and heterosexism. The data includes survey data from 2992 main respondents and 1232 partner respondents. Over half of the sample identifies as a sexual minority, and 15% identify as Latinx and 12% as Black. About a third are in same-gender relationships. These data are critical to enable data analysis to identify candidate mechanisms underlying sexual minority and racial and ethnic health disparities during the pandemic and the factors that exacerbated or alleviated these disparities. This proposal seeks to freely and broadly distribute these novel data while providing exceptional user support to ensure it is widely used. Leveraging infrastructure at the Institute for Social Research and Data Innovation (ISRDI) at the University of Minnesota—home to the Minnesota Population Center and IPUMS—we aim to make the data publicly available and to establish a secure data enclave to allow researchers access to restricted-use data including geospatial data. This project has four specific aims: Aim 1. Produce detailed documentation and an ethical use training module; Aim 2. Create the “NCHAT Portal,” a web-based platform to distribute the main NCHAT survey data; Aim 3. Design and maintain a secure enclave environment to distribute partner, time diary, experience sampling method, and geospatial data; Aim 4. Support NCHAT users and establish an NCHAT Users Conference. These data will be invaluable to a broad array of researchers, including those from public health, sociology, human development, psychology, and geography. Due to inequities in who receives funding for research, many marginalized scholars and scholars who study marginalized populations, do not have access to fully powered datasets. As such, identifying the underlying causes of health disparities remains difficult. Population health research is in critical need of a shift from a focus on marginalized identities, such as race, as a risk factor to a focus on the root causes of marginalization, such as racism, as the risk factor. With broad dissemination of the NCHAT data and support for NCHAT users, critical population health questions will be answered, and innovative and potentially transformational solutions for some of our most pressing public health problems will be identified and informed.
