Understanding perspectives and preferences for research engagement among members of a lupus patient stakeholder advisory board

The purpose of this study is to understand stakeholders' perspectives on engagement in lupus research as participants on a lupus patient stakeholder advisory board (SAB). This study assesses SAB engagement activities, stakeholders' perspectives on engagement in lupus research, and describe potential impacts of the SAB on research projects. SAB members will provide input on a variety of lupus research studies designed at UNC. Our aim is to assess SAB participants' perspectives on engagement with lupus research and perceptions (e.g., satisfaction, trust) of their role on the SAB providing input on lupus research, including topics identified as priorities for advancing lupus research and care outcomes. With this research, we aim to increase understanding of approaches and opportunities to effectively engage patient stakeholders in lupus research. This study will also explore stakeholders' perceptions of social support, in particular any sense of community or satisfaction derived from involvement in the lupus SAB.

Analyzing Educators' Knowledge of 360° Content

This study aims to study best practices for future and current educators to use 360° images and videos for teaching and learning. The researchers will survey pre-service and in-service teachers along teacher educators to gain their insights and understandings. The participants will then use a website to build learning experiences that utilize 360° images and videos and ask them about their new understanding and if they have a deeper understanding of using 360° for teaching and learning. This study's benefits will be to gain a better understanding of this topic and develop best practices for supporting educators in using 360° images and videos in the classroom.

Rural Endometrial Cancer Patients

The purpose of this project is to identify and target barriers faced by rural endometrial cancer patients in order to develop a patient navigation intervention. Rural residents with endometrial cancer, the the most prevalent gynecologic cancer in the US, have higher odds of mortality than urban endometrial cancer patients. As the number of new endometrial cancer cases is expected to increase 50% by 2030, this urban-rural disparity is expected to continue widening.

Social scientists' implementation of reproducible research practices

The purpose of the study is to understand why it is the case that authors do not submit reproducible research compendia even when a policy requires it (and policy guidance explains how). To do so, the study looks toward the specific mechanisms that inhibit and/or facilitate execution of data management tasks that support reproducibility. Identifying these mechanisms can inform the design of interventions that better equip researchers to produce and share high-quality research compendia. Such interventions may reduce the amount of time and labor currently required for current data verification workflows, which in turn may make journal-based data policies more feasible for a greater number of journals.
