>Children's Program Researchers...
NIH has just issued a program announcement for proposals on "Methodology
and Measurement in the Behavioral and Social Sciences". I have included a
brief summary and the link to the complete guidelines below. If you would
like to discuss possible research topics, Jon Gruber would be happy to hear
from you. If you would like to learn more about what is involved in
preparing a proposal for NICHD and how we can help, let me know. Besides
answering any questions about the grant requirements, I can send you
samples of successful past proposals from the Children's Program. As you
may know, grants from NIH often support substantial research efforts for as
many as five years, so they allow you to request funds for a large-scale
project.
Please feel free to contact Jon or me with any questions.

"Methodology and Measurement in the Behavioral and Social Sciences"
http://grants.nih.gov/grants/guide/pa-files/PA-05-090.html
* The goal of this program announcement is to encourage research that
will improve the quality and scientific power of data collected in the
behavioral and social sciences, relevant to the missions of the
participating NIH Institutes and Centers.
* The participating Institutes and Centers invite qualified researchers
to submit research grant applications aimed at improving and developing
methodology and measurement in the behavioral and social sciences through
innovations in research design, data collection techniques, measurement,
and data analysis techniques.
* Research that addresses methodology and measurement issues in diverse
populations, issues in studying sensitive behaviors, issues of ethics in
research, issues related to confidential data and the protection of
research subjects, and issues in developing interdisciplinary, multimethod,
and multilevel approaches to behavioral and social science research is
particularly encouraged, as are approaches that integrate behavioral and
social science research with biological, physical, or computational science
research or engineering.
