Social Confounders for Health Outcomes Linked to education

项目总结/摘要 SCHOOL（与教育有关的健康结果的社会混杂因素）研究将 利用现有的样本和基础设施，从以前的NICHD资助的研究（SAFE [影响婴儿护理实践的态度和因素的研究]和SMART [社会 婴儿护理实践的媒体和风险降低培训]），以确定 调解和缓和教育对儿童健康的影响。利用我们已经 收集的数据，我们已经开始这项工作，确定产妇的态度和信念， 调解教育对母亲是否让婴儿仰卧的影响 睡眠姿势，从而降低婴儿猝死综合症（SIDS）的风险 婴儿意外猝死（SUID）对于学校研究，我们将进一步 分析这些现有数据，并与SMART参与者进行定性研究， 深入了解其他因素，调解教育之间的关联， 儿童健康。此外，我们将制定一项新的全面协议，并收集数据 与SMART参与者一起照亮教育和儿童之间的具体途径 健康我们的具体目标是： 目的1：确定母亲教育与儿童早期发育之间的关系 家庭经验，包括家庭资源、父母幸福、家庭质量 关系和父母的儿童保健做法。 目标2：确定父母教育程度与儿童年龄之间的关联程度。 儿童的健康是由儿童早期的家庭经验，包括家庭 资源、父母福祉、家庭关系质量和父母子女健康 护理实践。 目标3：确定在控制家庭经历后， 父母教育和儿童健康之间的联系进一步介导 儿童的参与和早期教育经验的质量。

Project Summary / Abstract The SCHOOL (Social Confounders for Health Outcomes Linked to Education) study will utilize an existing sample and infrastructure from prior NICHD-funded studies (SAFE [Study of Attitudes and Factors Effecting Infant Care Practices] and SMART [Social Media and Risk Reduction Training for Infant Care Practices]) to identify factors that mediate and moderate the impact of education on child health. Using our already collected data, we have begun this work by identifying maternal attitudes and beliefs that mediate the impact of education on whether mothers place their infants in the supine position for sleep, thereby decreasing the risk of Sudden Infant Death Syndrome (SIDS) and Sudden Unexpected Infant Death (SUID). For the SCHOOL Study, we will further analyze these existing data and conduct qualitative research with SMART participants to gain insight into additional factors that mediate the association between education and child health. Further, we will develop a new comprehensive protocol and collect data with SMART participants to illuminate specific pathways between education and child health. Our Specific Aims are: Aim 1: To determine the association between maternal education and children’s early home experiences, including home resources, parental well-being, quality of family relationships and parental child health care practices. Aim 2: To determine the extent to which the association between parental education and children’s health is mediated by children’s early home experiences, including home resources, parental well-being, quality of family relationships and parental child health care practices. Aim 3: To determine the extent to which, after controlling for home experiences, the association between parental education and children’s health is further mediated by children’s participation in and quality of early education experiences.
