The study aims to explore variation in scholarly productivity outcomes by underrepresented status among a diverse sample of researchers in a community-engaged training program. We identified 141 trainees from a web-based survey of researchers in the National Cancer Institute-funded, Community Networks Program Centers (CNPCs) (2011-2016). We conducted a series of multiple logistic regression models to estimate the effect of National Institutes of Health (NIH)-defined underrepresented status on four, self-reported, scholarly productivity outcomes in the previous 5 years: number of publications (first-authored and total) and funded grants (NIH and any agency). Sixty-five percent (n = 92) indicated NIH underrepresented status. In final adjusted models, non-NIH underrepresented (vs. underrepresented) trainees reported an increased odds of having more than the median number of total publications (> 9) (OR = 3.14, 95% CI 1.21-8.65) and any grant funding (OR = 5.10, 95% CI 1.77-14.65). Reporting ≥ 1 mentors (vs. none) was also positively associated (p < 0.05) with these outcomes. The CNPC underrepresented trainees had similar success in first-authored publications and NIH funding as non-underrepresented trainees, but not total publications and grants. Examining trainees' mentoring experiences over time in relation to scholarly productivity outcomes is needed.
该研究旨在探讨在一个社区参与培训项目的多元化研究人员样本中,未被充分代表的身份对学术产出结果的影响。我们通过对美国国家癌症研究所资助的社区网络项目中心(CNPCs)(2011 - 2016年)的研究人员进行基于网络的调查,确定了141名学员。我们进行了一系列多元逻辑回归模型,以估计美国国立卫生研究院(NIH)定义的未被充分代表的身份对过去5年中四项自我报告的学术产出结果的影响:出版物数量(第一作者和总数)以及获得资助的项目(NIH和任何机构)。65%(n = 92)表示处于NIH未被充分代表的状态。在最终调整模型中,非NIH未被充分代表(相对于未被充分代表)的学员报告称,其总出版物数量超过中位数(> 9)(OR = 3.14,95% CI 1.21 - 8.65)以及获得任何资助的几率增加(OR = 5.10,95% CI 1.77 - 14.65)。报告有≥ 1名导师(相对于没有)也与这些结果呈正相关(p < 0.05)。CNPC中未被充分代表的学员在第一作者出版物和NIH资助方面与未被充分代表的学员取得了相似的成功,但在总出版物数量和资助项目方面并非如此。需要研究学员在一段时间内的指导经历与学术产出结果之间的关系。
