NIMH is issuing this Notice of Special Interest (NOSI) to outline priorities for research on the etiology, risks for, and prevention of interpersonal aggression and violence against others.
NIMH seeks to provide understanding and educate about mental illness, including misconceptions about aggression and violence within psychiatric populations. Most individuals with psychiatric illness are not violent, and individuals with psychiatric illnesses are more likely to be victims of aggression rather than perpetrators. In this NOSI, NIMH expresses interests in supporting research on violence and aggression as it relates to mental health, mental illness, or as it relates to HIV prevention and treatment. NIMH utilizes the definitions provided by the 2001 U.S. Surgeon General’s Report on Youth Violence (1) and the 2002 World Health Organization World Report on Violence and Health (2). When used in this context, the terms aggression and violence refer to physical or verbal actions or threats that are intended to cause harm.
This notice applies to due dates on or after March 10, 2022 and subsequent receipt dates through January 8, 2025.
