Experimental Design, Biostatistics & Data Services (EBD) Core

实验设计、生物统计和数据服务(EBD)核心的目的是提供 集中研究和统计设计、数据分析和数据管理服务以进行研究 由阿拉斯加土著健康研究中心(CANHR)支持。EBD核心必须解决三个问题 由于CANHR的工作基于社区参与性研究(CBPR)模式而出现的问题 在阿拉斯加原住民的背景下。CANHR科学家进行的研究具有以下特点：(1)定性 以及定量研究设计，(2)经常涉及小样本纵向研究的分析， 以及(3)对我们的CBPR合作伙伴做出反应的研究。社区合作伙伴强烈表示 支持正在进行的阿拉斯加土著健康干预研究的协作开发 对他们来说很重要的问题，这些问题构成了CANHR的专题疾病焦点。在……范围内 实验和统计设计，EBD核心将为CANHR调查人员提供咨询 提出基础、应用和干预研究项目。此外，这项工作还包括跨文化 测量工具、访谈方案和定性设计的适应和发展 学习。循证发展核心将为CANHR提供统计和定性分析方面的密集咨询 研究项目。这些服务将包括设计和实施统计分析。 最后，EBD核心将提供关键的数据管理服务。这些将包括正在进行的 维护几个现有的CANHR项目数据库，开发新的数据库以支持 未来项目，以及数据访问和报告服务。 EBD核心有以下三个具体目标： 具体目标1.支持实验、准实验、观察和定性的设计 学习。 具体目标2.支持数据分析的规划、开发和实施。 具体目标3.开发和维护研究数据库。

The purpose of the Experimental Design, Biostatistics, and Data Services (EBD) Core is to provide centralized research and statistical design, data analysis, and data management services to research supported by the Center for Alaska Native Health Research (CANHR). The EBD Core must address three issues that arise because CANHR work is based in community-based participatory research (CBPR) models and in Alaska Native settings. Research conducted by CANHR scientists is characterized by (1) qualitative as well as quantitative research designs, (2) analyses that often involve small sample longitudinal studies, and (3) research that is responsive to our CBPR partners. Community partners have expressed strong support for collaborative development of intervention studies addressing ongoing Alaska Native health issues of importance to them and that form the thematic disease focus of CANHR. Within the area of experimental and statistical design, the EBD Core will provide consultation to CANHR investigators proposing basic, applied, and intervention research projects. In addition, this work includes cross-cultural adaptation and development of measurement instruments, interview protocols, and designs for qualitative studies. The EBD Core will provide intensive consultation on statistical and qualitative analysis for CANHR research projects. These services will include both design and implementation of statistical analyses. Finally, the EBD Core will provide crucial data management services. These will include ongoing maintenance of several existing CANHR project databases, development of new databases to support future projects, and data access and reporting services. The EBD Core has the following three specific aims: Specific Aim 1. Support the design of experimental, quasi-experimental, observational, and qualitative studies. Specific Aim 2. Support the planning, development, and implementation of data analyses. Specific Aim 3. Develop and maintain research databases.
