This Project Grant award from the National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute (NHLBI), under the Cardiovascular Diseases Research Federal Grant Program (CFDA 93.837), is funding the development and validation of a self-management questionnaire specifically designed for adolescents with asthma aged 12-21. The study aims to fill the gap in validated measures for assessing asthma self-management skills in this critical transitional period. The $393,180 award to Texas Woman's University will be used to compose, validate, and establish the psychometric properties of the new adolescent asthma self-management questionnaire over a three-year period ending in August 2027. The project will integrate student researchers and employ a participatory approach involving adolescents with asthma to ensure the questionnaire is tailored to their needs. The validated questionnaire has the potential to facilitate assessment and feedback in clinical settings, as well as serve as a research tool to better understand adolescent asthma self-management.
