The National Institute on Minority Health and Health Disparities (NIMHD) awarded a $677,562 Project Grant to the University of Rochester to conduct research on the "Impact of Social Connectedness on Suicide Risk in Adults in Middle to Later Life." The project aims to examine how daily social engagement behaviors can promote a sense of belonging and alleviate perceived burden, thereby decreasing suicide risk among adults aged 40 and older who report elevated suicide risk. The study will utilize smartphone-based ecological momentary assessment and passive sensing to track social behaviors and suicide risk factors over 14 days at baseline and 3 months. The findings will inform the development of interventions to promote health and reduce health disparities in this population.
