Geographic and Contextual Influences on Energy Balance-Related Health Behaviors (R01) Open to non-US citizens

This funding opportunity announcement (FOA), issued by the National Cancer Institute (NCI), the National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute (NHLBI), the National Institute of Nursing Research (NINR), the National Institute of Child Health and Human Development (NICHD), and the Office of Behavioral and Social Sciences Research (OBSSR),encourages the submission of grant applications that propose hypothesis-driven projects exploring associations between the built environment, other contextual features of where people of all ages live and work and health behaviors related to energy balance. These projects should use population level data from health surveys and other large health studies. It is expected that the proposed projects will be designed to add/include contextual variables at diverse levels of geographic aggregation to such studies on behaviors that affect individual energy balance and thereby health. Subsequent analyses should be aimed at understanding the relative importance of the contextual variables (including home, work, school, and/or other environments) as determinants of energy balance-related health behaviors. Grant applications will be expected to use population level data from diverse sources for: 1) generation and addition of new geographic information system (GIS) data layers for analysis of contextual variables such as measures of the built and natural environments, to existing studies; 2) analyses of existing confidential geographic-based data either on site, at survey data centers, or other protected sites; and/or 3) merging multiple health-related data resources to allow new analyses of associations between contextual variables and energy balance-related health behaviors.

Improving Diet and Physical Activity Assessment (R01) Open to non-US citizens

This announcement encourages innovative research to enhance the quality of measurements of dietary intake and physical activity. Applications submitted under this FOA may include development of: novel assessment approaches; better methods to evaluate instruments; assessment tools for culturally diverse populations or various age groups, including older adults; improved technology or applications of existing technology; statistical methods to assess or correct for measurement errors or biases, methods to investigate the multidimensionality of diet and physical activity behavior through pattern analysis; or integrated measurement of diet and physical activity along with the environmental context of such behaviors.

Methodology and Measurement in the Behavioral and Social Sciences (R01) Open to non-US citizens

The goal of this Funding Opportunity Announcement (FOA) is to encourage research that will improve the quality and scientific power of data collected in the behavioral and social sciences, relevant to the missions of the participating NIH Institutes and Centers. The participating NIH Institutes and Centers invite qualified researchers to submit research grant applications aimed at improving and developing methodology and measurement in the behavioral and social sciences through innovations in research design, data collection techniques, measurement, and data analysis techniques. Research that addresses methodology and measurement issues in diverse populations, issues in studying sensitive behaviors, issues of ethics in research, issues related to confidential data and the protection of research subjects, and issues in developing interdisciplinary, multimethod, and multilevel approaches to behavioral and social science research is particularly encouraged, as are approaches that integrate behavioral and social science research with biological, physical, or computational science research or engineering.
