Inderdisciplinary Training on Preventing and Addressing Violence in Families

描述（由申请人提供）：研究影响家庭和青少年的暴力的跨学科培训。这一跨学科研究准备申请的目标是培训护理、公共卫生和医学学者，使他们了解暴力后身心健康和发展问题及行为的风险因素和干预措施。博士前和博士后研究员将由来自多个学科的经验丰富的暴力研究人员指导，进行：1)政策和实践相关的流行病学和临床风险因素分析和理论测试研究；2)设计和测试一级、二级和三级干预措施，以预防、识别和改善暴力以及身心健康和发育和行为后遗症的发生和/或复发。他们将获得跨学科培训，以解决与暴力有关的知识体系中出现的交叉点：艾滋病毒/艾滋病与暴力、暴力的生理后果以及与暴力经历差异有关的健康差异。学者在以下方面获得跨学科的内容：1)暴力的风险因素和身心健康以及暴力的发展结果（经历和接触社区、家庭、青年和集体暴力、自杀、对妇女和儿童的暴力）2)社会、种族和文化对暴力的病因和结果的影响，包括与暴力有关的健康差异，以及获得护理方面的健康差异如何导致少数民族人口更严重的身心健康结果；3)文化上适当的干预和评估，4)暴力相关研究行为中的伦理问题和社会责任，以及5)暴力相关研究的多种方法方法。也有更多的机会在艾滋病毒/艾滋病界面和生理前因和后遗症方面进行培训，并有保健和社区机构进行翻译研究。在NIMH资助的10年里，我们成功培养了25名博士生和6名博士后，每个职位都有多名高素质的申请者。我们的核心教师现在包括更多的发展专家和艾滋病毒/艾滋病暴力专业知识。本申请寻求2个博士后和5个博士前职位的支持。

DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): Interdisciplinary Training in Research Violence Affecting Families and Youth. The goal of this application for interdisciplinary research preparation is to train nursing, public health and medical scholars in the science of risk factors and interventions for and physical and mental health and developmental problems and behaviors subsequent to violence. Pre and post doctoral fellows will be mentored by experienced violence researchers from multiple disciplines to conduct: 1) policy and practice relevant epidemiological and clinical risk factor analysis and theory testing studies, and 2) design and test primary, secondary and tertiary interventions to prevent, identify, and ameliorate violence and the occurrence and/or recurrence of physical and mental health and developmental and behavioral sequelae. They will obtain interdisciplinary training to address emerging intersections of bodies of knowledge related to violence: HIV/AIDS and violence, physiological outcomes of violence, and health disparities related to differences in violent experiences. The scholars obtain interdisciplinary content in: 1) risk factors for and physical and mental health and developmental outcomes of violence (experiencing and exposure to community, family, youth and collective violence, suicide, violence against women and children) 2) social, ethnic and cultural influences on violence etiology and outcomes including violence related health disparities and how health disparities in access to care can result in more severe physical and mental health outcomes for ethnic minority populations, 3) culturally appropriate interventions and evaluations, 4) ethical issues and social responsibility in the conduct of violence related research, and 5) multiple methods approaches to violence related research. Additional opportunities for training in the HIV/AIDS interface and physiological antecedents and sequelae also are available, as well as health care and community agencies for translation research. We have successfully trained 25 predoctoral and 6 postdoctoral fellows in 10 years of funding from NIMH and have multiple highly qualified applicants for each position. Our Core Faculty now includes more developmental experts and HIV/AIDS violence expertise. This application seeks support for 2 postdoctoral and 5 predoctoral positions. Public Health Relevance: Violence and witnessing violence results in intertwined mental and physical health problems for adults and children. Risk factors for violence are also multifaceted and include individual, family and community factors. Interdisciplinary training is necessary for nursing, public health and medical researchers to understand and design appropriate violence prevention and interventions to prevent future violence and health problems.
