Welcome
Welcome to the Lifestyle, Culture, and
Health Project. We are currently in our third phase of funding (2007-2012) from the
National Institutes of Health. Our goal is to contribute knowledge about the relations
among lifestyle, personality, culture, and health over the lifespan. The project
is a joint effort of the Oregon Research Institute and the Kaiser Permanente Center for
Health Research, Hawai'i. Our website is hosted by the University of Hawai'i at Manoa.
We are continuing to locate people who participated in an earlier study as
elementary school students in Hawai'i during the years 1959-1967. We are inviting
participants to visit our research clinic at Dole Cannery in Honolulu. During 2009-2010,
we offered a clinic visit on Kauai at Aloha Medical Center, where over 50 participants
joined us. In 2011, we plan to include Leeward O'ahu residents at the Kaiser Permanente
Nanaikeola Clinic in Wai'anae.
If contacted, we hope that you will join
us in this important project and help us to reach our goal of 810 clinic visit
participants by 2012. Mahalo!

Jack M. Digman,
Ph.D., our mentor and friend, meticulously gathered the original childhood data for this
study during 1959 -1967. Jack was a professor in the Psychology Department at the
University of Hawaii before retiring and moving to Oregon to continue his love for
research at the Oregon Research Institute. In 1997 at the age of 73, he was awarded
a grant by the National Institutes of Health to begin the follow-up study in which we are
all now engaged. We hope that our work will in a small way honor Jack's great contribution
to science. |
