Data availability
SECONDARY
The raw data are protected and are not available due to data privacy laws. Also, the data cannot be shared in a public repository because the research team did not get the permission from NIH or from the participants during the research process. The processed deidentified data are available according to the below process. However, any researchers could request the data sharing through contacting PI (Dr. E-O.I) and the data will be shared according to the following procedures that was approved by NIH at the time of the grant award. First, the deidentified data and the associated codebook that defines the data will be available for sharing with other researchers. The data will be available for secondary analyses especially by those who wish to investigate the effectiveness of a culturally tailored technology-based information and coaching/support program in various variables other than our major outcome variables. Any researcher who wishes to use the data must request permission to conduct secondary analyses of the data from PI of the study (Dr. E-O.I.) by e-mail or regular mail and provide PI with a 1-page long abstract (single-spaced) of the proposed analysis and his/her CV. The decision on data sharing will be made by the research team, including the PI, Co-Investigators, and consultants, after they review the abstract and CV. When the research team decides to share the data with the researcher, the data in SPSS format, abstract, and original findings will be provided to the researcher. The researcher will be requested to: (a) agree that she/he will provide the findings from her/his analyses to the PI at the completion of the analyses, (b) acknowledge the original study and the NIH in her/his future publications, and (c) not use the findings from the data for any commercial purposes. This agreement will be made in a written form. The data will have no identifying information to link a subject to her data. The data will be shared to the researcher through OneDrive. The data will be available for 10 years after the completion of the study.
