PROVIDED.The Translational Support Core provides a unifying and coordinating element to this program project grantthrough the direct provision and coordination of support services from multiple school and universityresources for the program projects. The Translational Support core will support recruitment, assessment,data management, and statistical analysis, directly and through liaison with the School of Nursing Center forResearch and Evaluation (CRE), Center for Research in Chronic Disorders (CRCD), and the HealthSciences-wide Clinical and Translational Research Institute (CTSI). The Core will be located within theCenter for Research and Evaluation in the School of Nursing. Participant interaction through mail,telephone, and/or face to face contact will occur within the Clinical Research Suite of the CRE as well aswithin the community. In addition to support services for each unique program project, the Core will supportthe collection and analysis of common measures to sustain translation of interventions to practice. Theseinclude: 1) the amount of training/retraining time required for intervention delivery; 2) the capabilities andexpected quality of intervention delivery as measured by interventionist adherence protocol; 3) the timerequired for intervention delivery; 4) patient acceptance of the intervention as measured by recruitment rates,appointment keep rates, and retention rates; and 5) characteristics of responsive patients in order to definepopulations for the interventions. The Core directors will provide leadership to the overall program project,will organize regular meetings of the project principal investigators to discuss progress, resource utilization,communication and evolution of the science, as well as evaluate the overall progress of the program ofresearch being undertaken.
