approach where connections between people and their environments are
examined systematically and multilevel factors are hierarchically
accounted for;
- Reducing
health disparities by placing more emphasis on understudied,
underserved, and socieconomically disadvantaged population group;
- Innovative
rethinking, restructuring, and reinvigorating existing paradigms and
programs;
- Cultural

applications of research findings yet the value of parsimonious
interpretation is not overlooked;
- Theory-
and/or evidence-based interventions; and
- Diligent
attention to minimize measurement errors and sampling errors.
