DIVERSITY SUPPLEMENT: SHANDRIA SUTTON - JACKSON HEART STUDY (JHS) COORDINATING CENTER (CC)

该项目的目标是使用杰克逊心脏研究（JHS）数据，这是迄今为止最大的非裔美国人队列研究，以确定某些慢性疾病的行为风险因素（烟草使用，体育活动，体重指数）是否以及如何与非裔美国人使用互联网和移动的技术（IMT）相关。目的1是确定具有某些慢性疾病风险因素的非裔美国人使用IMT的程度。目的2是了解具有某些慢性病风险因素的非裔美国人如何使用IMT。对于纳入研究，参与者将仅限于具有考试3的可用数据并在年度随访期间完成调查“数字连通性调查”的人员。在拟议的研究成果是互联网和移动的技术的使用。暴露是与慢性疾病相关的3个风险因素：体力活动，体重指数和烟草使用。 描述性统计将用于检查年龄、性别和教育。将使用多变量logistic回归分析来探索慢性疾病风险因素与IMT使用之间的关系，同时控制相关协变量。

The goal of this project is to use Jackson Heart Study (JHS) data, the largest cohort study of African Americans to date, in order to determine if and how certain behavioral risk factors for chronic illnesses (tobacco use, physical activity, body mass index) relate to Internet and Mobile Technology (IMT) use among African-Americans. Aim 1 is to determine the extent to which African-Americans with certain risk factors for chronic illnesses use IMT. Aim 2 is to to understand how African Americans with certain risk factors for chronic disease use IMT. For inclusion in the study, participants will be only those who have available data from Exam 3 and completed the survey "Digital Connectedness Survey" during Annual Follow Up. The outcome in the proposed research is Internet and Mobile Technology Use. The exposures are 3 risk factors related to chronic disease: physical activity, body mass index, and tobacco use. Descriptive statistics will be used to examine age, gender, and education. Multivariate logistic regression analyses will be used to explore the relationship between chronic disease risk factors and IMT use while controlling for relevant covariates.
