collected by the TBIMS projects on

individuals with traumatic brain injury.

The data center must:

(1) Establish and maintain a database

repository for data from TBIMS projects

while providing for confidentiality,

quality control, and data retrieval

capabilities, using cost-effective and

user-friendly technology;

(2) Ensure data quality, reliability,

and integrity by providing training and

technical assistance to TBIMS projects

on data collection procedures, data

entry methods, and use of study

instruments;

(3) Provide consultation to NIDRR and

directors and staff of the TBIMS projects

on utility and quality of data elements;

(4) Support efforts to improve the

research findings of the TBIMS projects

by providing statistical and other

consultation regarding the national

database;

(5) Facilitate dissemination of

information generated by the TBIMS

projects, including statistical

information, scientific papers, and

consumer materials;

(6) Evaluate the feasibility of linking

and comparing TBIMS data to

population-based data sets, such as the

CDC State-based injury surveillance

data and provide technical assistance

for such linkage, as appropriate; and

(7) Develop guidelines to provide

access to TBIMS data by individuals

and institutions, ensuring that data are

available in accessible formats for

persons with disabilities.

In carrying out these purposes, the

center must:

• Demonstrate knowledge of

culturally appropriate methods of data

collection, including understanding of

culturally sensitive measurement

approaches; and

• Collaborate with other NIDRR

funded projects, e.g., the Model Spinal

Cord Injury and Burn Injury Model

System Data Centers, regarding issues

such as database development and

maintenance, center operations, and

data management.

Proposed Additional Selection Criterion

We will use the selection criteria in

34 CFR 350.54 to evaluate applications

under these programs. The maximum

score for all the criteria is 100 points;

however, we will also use the following

criterion so that up to an additional 10

points may be earned by an applicant

for a total possible score of 110 points.

Up to 10 points based on the extent

to which an application includes

effective strategies for employing and

advancing in employment qualified

individuals with disabilities in projects

awarded under these absolute priorities.

In determining the effectiveness of those

strategies, we will consider the

applicant’s prior success, as described

in the application, in employing and

advancing in employment qualified

individuals with disabilities.

Thus, for purposes of this competitive

preference, applicants can be awarded

up to a total of 10 points in addition to

those awarded under the published

selection criteria for these priorities.

That is, an applicant meeting this

competitive preference could earn a

maximum total of 110 points.

CFR part 350.
