BACKGROUND In 2011, the National Institute of Health (NIH) initiated the Training in Dissemination and Implementation Research in Health (TIDIRH) program. Over its first 5 years, TIDIRH provided an in-person, week-long training to 197 investigators who were new to the dissemination and implementation (D&I) field. This paper evaluates the long-term impact of TIDIRH on trainees' use of D&I methods, collaborations, and research funding. METHODS Trainees were selected to participate through a competitive process. We compared the 197 trainees to 125 unselected applicants (UAs) whose application score was within one standard deviation of the mean for all trainees' scores for the same application year. A portfolio analysis examined electronic applications for NIH peer-reviewed funding submitted by trainees and UAs between 2011 and 2019. A survey of trainees and UAs was conducted in 2016, as was a faculty survey among the 87 individuals who served as TIDIRH instructors. RESULTS A major goal of TIDIRH was to build the field, at least in part through networking and collaboration. Thirty-eight percent of trainees indicated they had extensive contact with faculty following the training, and an additional 38% indicated they had at least limited contact. Twenty-four percent of trainees had extensive collaboration with other fellows post-TIDIRH, and 43% had at least limited contact. Collaborative activities included the full range of academic activities, including manuscript development, grant writing, and consultation/collaboration on research studies. The portfolio analysis combining grant mechanisms showed that overall, TIDIRH trainees submitted more peer-reviewed NIH grants per person than UA and had significantly better funding outcomes (25% vs 19% funded, respectively). The greatest difference was for large research project, program/center, and cooperative agreement grants mechanisms. CONCLUSIONS Overall, this evaluation found that TIDIRH is achieving its three primary goals: (1) building a pipeline of D&I investigators, (2) creating a network of scholars to build the field, and (3) improving funding outcomes for D&I grants.

能力建设：美国卫生传播与实施研究培训学院的横断面评估。

背景技术2011年，美国国立卫生研究院（NIH）启动了卫生传播与实施研究培训（TIDIRH）计划。在最初的5年中，TIDIRH为197名调查人员提供了为期一周的面对面培训，他们是传播和实施（D＆I）领域的新手。本文评估了TIDIRH对受训人员使用D＆I方法，协作和研究经费的长期影响。方法选择受训人员参加竞争过程。我们将197名受训者与125名未选定的申请者（UA）进行了比较，他们的申请分数在同一申请年度内所有受训者分数均值的标准偏差之内。一份投资组合分析检查了2011年至2019年之间由受训者和用户协会提交的NIH同行评审资金的电子申请。2016年对受训者和UA进行了调查，对TITIRH讲师的87个人进行了教师调查。结果TIDIRH的主要目标是至少部分通过网络和协作来建立该领域。38％的受训者表示他们在培训后与教职员工有广泛的接触，另外38％的受训者表示他们的接触至少是有限的。在TIDIRH之后，有24％的受训者与其他研究人员进行了广泛的合作，而43％的受训者至少有有限的联系。合作活动包括全方位的学术活动，包括手稿开发，赠款撰写以及研究研究的咨询/合作。组合赠款机制的投资组合分析表明，总体而言，TIDIRH的受训人员每人提交的经NIH授予的NIH赠款比UA多，且资助成果显着提高（分别为25％和19％的资助）。最大的区别在于大型研究项目，计划/中心和合作协议授予机制。结论总体而言，该评估发现TIDIRH正在实现其三个主要目标：（1）建立D＆I研究人员的渠道；（2）建立学者网络以建立该领域；（3）改善D＆I赠款的资金成果。
