  • Title: Supplemental grant to continue cooperative agreements with 10 predictor variables grantees and their research coordinating center. CSAP, SAMHSA, HHS. Supplement to support an additional year of intervention follow-up and data collection among the Predictor Variables by Developmental Stage grantees and their Research Coordinating Center.
    Journal: Fed Regist; 1999 Apr 29; 64(82):23091-2. PubMed ID: 10558487.
    Abstract:
    This notice is to inform the public that an estimated $1.65 million will be available to support up to 11 supplemental awards to 10 existing Predictor Variables Study Sites and one existing Research Coordinating Center in FY 1999. The purpose of the award is to support enhancement of current programs and allow the collection and analyses of additional follow-up data for children currently included in these studies. CSAP will make the awards based on the recommendations of the initial review group and the CSAP National Advisory Council. Supplemental awards will be made in Fiscal Year 1999, by September 30, 1999. The studies funded under this supplement are projected to end September 30, 2000. Eligibility is limited to existing SAMHSA/CSAP's Predictor Variables by Developmental Stage study sites, and their Research Coordinating Center. All currently active Predictor Variables grantees are eligible to apply for supplemental funds under this GFA. Given the short implementation time frame and limited funds available for this activity, as well as existing research protocols that limit the scope of new activities that could be introduced at this point in the study, the existing Predictor Variables projects are the only projects that can effectively implement the required booster sessions and follow-up data collection activities. These studies have already demonstrated that they can make a positive impact on children within selected developmental parameters. It is important to document that this impact on these same children can be maintained as they enter the next developmental stages. The Research Coordinating Center has put considerable effort into developing cross-site rapport and collecting process data from the individual sites; an effort that would be redundant and not cost-effective if attempted by another entity at this point in the project. Additionally, it is important to the continuity of the study that the Research Coordinating Center be able to continue its current analyses and be able to conduct secondary analyses based on the totality of the data submitted throughout the life of the study.
