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 relation of 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, and 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 in Dole
Cannery. 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.
Note: Please find our contact information below. Mahalo to everyone
who has provided us change of name and/or address information during the past two years
through our Name/Address Update facility -- this is extremely
helpful.

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. |
