A central challenge facing twenty-first century community-based researchers and prevention scientists is curriculum adaptation processes. While early prevention efforts sought to develop effective programs, taking programs to scale implies that they will be adapted, especially as programs are implemented with populations other than those with whom they were developed or tested. The principle of cultural grounding, which argues that health message adaptation should be informed by knowledge of the target population and by cultural insiders, provides a theoretical rational for cultural regrounding and presents an illustrative case of methods used to reground the keepin' it REAL substance use prevention curriculum for a rural adolescent population. We argue that adaptation processes like those presented should be incorporated into the design and dissemination of prevention interventions.
二十一世纪社区为基础的研究人员和预防科学家面临的一个核心挑战是课程适应过程。虽然早期的预防工作旨在开发有效的项目，但将项目推广意味着它们将需要进行调整，尤其是在针对的人群与项目开发或测试的人群不同的情况下。文化扎根原则认为，健康信息的调整应该基于对目标人群的了解和文化内部人士的意见，为文化重新定位提供了理论依据，并展示了一种用于为农村青少年群体重新定位保持真实预防药物使用课程的方法。我们认为，应该将类似的适应过程纳入预防干预措施的设计和传播中。
