DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): The primary aim of the proposed study is to explore the feasibility of using Instructional Design and Technology (Dempsey & Reiser, 2002) to provide community-based drug abuse counselors with engaging, case-based, online training regarding empirically supported treatments for Substance Use Disorders. We propose to translate the content from the NIDA therapy manual "A Cognitive-Behavioral Approach: Treating Cocaine Addiction" (Carroll, 1998), into a series of interactive, media-rich, web-based modules for clinician training. Working in collaboration with a panel of community treatment providers, we propose to transform each of the topics from the NIDA CBT manual (e.g. "Problem-solving", "Coping with Craving" and "Refusal Skills") into stand-alone, problem-focused "tools" designed to provide counselors with the knowledge, skills and abilities required to successfully implement CBT strategies and techniques in their clinical practice. Each module will employ a variety of vignettes, video role-plays, graphics and interactive animated sequences to promote active engagement with the material. Completed modules will be accessible to clinicians through a Web Based Training (WBT) application (visit www.nidatoolbox.org to view a prototype). We hypothesize that exposure to and engagement with the WBT will result in effective transfer of knowledge regarding Cognitive Behavioral Therapy techniques, and that such transfer will be accomplished with a high level of learner satisfaction. This developmental project will be conducted in three phases. In Phase I, project staff will work closely with a panel of 12 community-based drug abuse treatment providers from public and private settings to develop the content and functional specification for each of the web-based modules to be included in the clinical toolbox. In Phase II, writers, artists, video producers and web developers will translate the functional specification into a live prototype web application, which will be iteratively reviewed by members of the community providers panel. In Phase III, a sample of 156 community treatment providers will be randomly assigned to (1) complete the WBT, (2) attend a face-to-face workshop that covers the identical material as the WBT, or (3) receive a hard copy of the NIDA therapy manual in the mail (minimal training condition). This pilot test will employ both qualitative and quantitative measures to evaluate learner satisfaction, level of knowledge transfer, and areas for improvement. After incorporating feedback from the pilot test, the research team intends to apply for additional funding to conduct an efficacy trial.

描述（由申请人提供）： 拟议的研究的主要目的是探索使用教学设计和技术（Dempsey＆Reiser，2002）的可行性，以向基于社区的药物滥用辅导员提供有关凭经验支持药物使用障碍的经验支持治疗方法的引人入胜的，基于病例的在线培训。我们建议将NIDA治疗手册中的内容转化为“认知行为方法：治疗可卡因成瘾”（Carroll，1998），将其转变为一系列互动式的，媒体丰富的基于Web的临床医生培训模块。我们建议与一组社区治疗提供者合作，将每个主题从NIDA CBT手册（例如“解决问题的问题”，“渴望解决”和“拒绝技能”）转变为独立的，以问题为中心的“专注于问题的“工具”工具，旨在为辅导员提供知识，技能和能力，以成功地实施CBT策略和技能，以实现CBT策略和技能。每个模块将采用各种小插图，视频角色扮演，图形和交互式动画序列，以促进与材料的积极参与。临床医生将通过基于Web的培训（WBT）应用程序访问完成的模块（访问www.nidatoolbox.org查看原型）。我们假设接触WBT并参与WBT将导致有关认知行为疗法技术的知识的有效转移，并且这种转移将以高水平的学习者满意度来完成。这个发展项目将分为三个阶段。在第一阶段，项目人员将与来自公共和私人环境的12个基于社区的药物滥用治疗提供者组成的小组紧密合作，以开发临床工具箱中的每个基于Web的模块的内容和功能规范。在第二阶段，作家，艺术家，视频制作人和Web开发人员将将功能规范转换为实时原型Web应用程序，该应用程序将由社区提供商面板的成员进行迭代审查。在第三阶段中，将将156个社区治疗提供者的样本随机分配给（1）完成WBT，（2）参加面对面的研讨会，该研讨会涵盖了与WBT相同的材料，或（3）在邮件中收到NIDA治疗手册的纸质（最小培训条件）。该试点测试将采用定性和定量措施来评估学习者满意度，知识转移水平和改进领域。在整合了试点测试的反馈之后，研究小组打算申请额外的资金来进行有效试验。
