The University of Texas at Arlington received $831,462 in federal funding awarded June 29, 2026, under the National Institute on Minority Health and Health Disparities (NIMHD) Minority Health and Health Disparities Research program (CFDA 93.307) to investigate associations between stress-related daily social experiences and cardiovascular disease (CVD) risk. The project, scheduled for completion by December 31, 2030, will develop a validated item bank consisting of brief survey questions designed to assess adults' daily perceived social stress experiences, immediate psychological effects, and coping behaviors. Development of the assessment tool will be conducted through in-depth content and cognitive interviews with 35 participants and a nationwide survey sample of 2,000 respondents. The research initiative addresses a critical gap in existing stress measurement instruments, which are limited in capturing day-to-day social stress experiences and immediate individual responses to stressful events. The resulting validated item bank will enable researchers and clinicians to better understand the relationship between daily social stress and hypertension or CVD risk, ultimately supporting the development of more tailored intervention and treatment strategies to address CVD health disparities among U.S. adults.Federal Project Grant Award Summary
