FOA Purpose |
This Funding Opportunity Announcement (FOA), issued by the
National Institute of Nursing Research (NINR) with participation from the
National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute (NHLBI), the Eunice Kennedy
Shriver National Institute of Child Health and Human Development (NICHD),
the National Institute of Diabetes and Digestive and Kidney Diseases (NIDDK),
the National Center for Complementary and Alternative Medicine (NCCAM), and
the Office of Behavioral and Social Sciences Research (OBSSR), is to
encourage Research Project Grant (R01) applications that employ innovative
research to identify mechanisms of influence and/or promote positive
sustainable health behavior(s) in children and youth (birth to age 18).
Positive health behaviors may include: developing healthy sleep patterns,
developing effective self-regulation strategies, adaptive decision-making in
risk situations, practicing proper dental hygiene, eating a balanced and
nutritious diet, engaging in age-appropriate physical activity and/or
participating in healthy relationships. Applications to promote positive
health behavior(s) should target social and cultural factors, including, but
not limited to: schools, families, communities, population, food industry,
age-appropriate learning tools and games, social media, social networking,
technology and mass media. Topics to be addressed in this announcement
include: effective, sustainable processes for influencing young people to
make healthy behavior choices; identification of the appropriate stage of
influence for learning sustainable lifelong health behaviors; the role of
technology and new media in promoting healthy behavior; identification of
factors that support healthy behavior development in vulnerable populations,
identification of barriers to healthy behaviors; and, identification of
mechanisms and mediators that are common to the development of a range of
habitual health behaviors. Given the many factors involved in developing
sustainable health behaviors, applications from multidisciplinary teams are
strongly encouraged. The ultimate goal of this FOA is to promote research
that identifies and enhances processes that promote sustainable positive
behavior or changes social and cultural norms that influence health and
future health behaviors. |
