CORE--DEMONSTRATION AND INFORMATION DISSEMINATION

杜克老年美国人独立中心（OAIC）的示范和信息传播项目（DIDP）将翻译本提案中详述的干预发展研究的结果，供多个消费者使用。由于我们提出的干预发展研究的多样性，每一项研究都需要独特的策略来传播给不同的受众。我们提出了一系列专门针对研究我们的三个目标受众（研究人员、临床医生和管理人员、老年人及其家庭）的传播活动。我们将与来自每个IDS的科学家合作，确定该研究目标受众的具体特征，以及内容和风格的最有效传播方法。下面的时间表将指导我们的传播工作的内容：(1)第1年和第2年的传播工作将集中于继续传播我们以前的杜克大学OAIC的调查结果，同时规划未来的工作；(2)第3和第4年的传播工作将完成OAIC以前的研究结果的传播，并开始传播本文提出的研究结果；(3)第五年的传播工作将集中于传播拟议的所有调查结果。Deborah T. Gold博士，DIDP项目负责人，拥有丰富的OAIC经验，她曾担任测量核心的核心负责人和我们早期OAIC骨质疏松症主要干预研究的项目负责人。她参与了杜克ADRC的传播工作以及向农村和少数民族老年人传播阿尔茨海默氏症的信息。DIDP将与杜克生活中心（DCL）进行部分合作，后者是一个健身和健康管理中心，旨在促进健康问题的一级、二级和三级预防。本处在宣传方面的专业知识，将与谘询委员会对长者特殊需要的了解相结合。由于DCL目前没有针对老年人的传播工作，两个中心都可以从这种安排中受益匪浅。此外，传播工作的目标将是DCL没有覆盖到的区域和国家受众。

The Demonstration and Information Dissemination Project (DIDP) for the Duke Older Americans Independence Center (OAIC) will translate the findings of the intervention-development studies detailed in this proposal for use by multiple consumers. Because of the diversity of our proposed Intervention Development Studies, each requires unique strategies for dissemination to different audiences. We propose a series of dissemination activities specifically tailored to research our three target audiences (researchers, clinicians and administrators, and older individuals and their families). In collaboration with the scientists from each IDS, we will determine the specific characteristics of that study's target audiences as well as the most effective dissemination methods for both content and style. The schedule below will guide the content of our dissemination efforts: (1) years 1 & 2 dissemination efforts will concentrate on continuing to disseminate findings from our previous Duke OAIC while planning future efforts; (2) years 3 & 4 dissemination efforts will be to finish disseminating previous OAIC findings and begin disseminating results from the studies proposed here; and (3) year 5 dissemination efforts will be concentrated on disseminating all findings from the proposed. Dr. Deborah T. Gold, Project Leader of the DIDP, has had extensive OAIC experience through her previous involvement as Core Leader of the Measurement Core and Project Leader of the major Intervention Study on osteoporosis for our earlier OAIC. She has participated in the dissemination efforts of the Duke ADRC and in the dissemination of Alzheimer's information to rural and minority elders. The DIDP will collaborate in part with the Duke Center for Living (DCL), a fitness and health management center that promotes primary, secondary, and tertiary prevention of health problems. The DCL's expertise with dissemination will combine with the OAIC's understanding about the special needs of the elderly. Because the DCL currently does not have targeted dissemination efforts for older adults, both Centers can benefit tremendously from this arrangement. In addition, dissemination efforts will be aimed at the regional and national audience that the DCL does not reach.
