项目摘要

DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): Mindfulness-based meditation and other contemplative practices have been the focus of intensive research at the intersection of neuroscience, clinical psychology, and addiction research. Mindfulness involves intentional regulation of attention to and awareness of the present moment, and nonjudgmental acceptance of the ongoing flow of sensations, thoughts, and/or emotional states. Recent studies suggest that mindfulness meditation (MM) training may be effective in the treatment of substance use disorders. Key research questions include: What is the relationship between mindfulness as a dispositional trait and substance use? How does MM reduce the negative affect associated with drug relapse? And finally, among populations suffering from disproportionate health and criminal justice consequences of illicit drug use, can MM be adapted and disseminated as an effective treatment for substance abuse and addiction? The Chicago State University Urban Mindfulness and Addictions Research (CUMAR) program is collaboration between faculty in pharmacy, public health, social work, counseling, and psychology. The primary research project will be to develop a culturally tailored, MM-based relapse prevention intervention for incarcerated substance users, and test its efficacy in preventing relapse and recidivism. A basic science pilot project focuses on the role of the endogenous end cannabinoid system in regulating anxiety symptoms of drug withdrawal. The second pilot study focuses on enhancing case management through MM training of case managers to reduce stress and improve interpersonal practice skills. The third pilot study explores the association between trait/dispositional mindfulness, substance use, and medication adherence in a population of substance users involved in the criminal justice system. The overall alms of the program are thus to advance the neuroscience of mindfulness; to apply it to reducing drug use and addiction among persons involved in the criminal justice system; to improve delivery of substance abuse case management; and to train and inspire a new generation of researchers from underrepresented groups.

描述（由申请人提供）：基于正念的冥想和其他沉思实践一直是神经科学，临床心理学和成瘾研究的交集的重点研究的重点。正念涉及对当前时刻的关注和意识的故意调节，以及对持续的感觉，思想和/或情感状态的持续不断接受。最近的研究表明，正念冥想（MM）训练可能有效地治疗药物使用障碍。关键的研究问题包括：正念作为性格特征与使用物质之间的关系是什么？ MM如何减少与药物复发有关的负面影响？最后，在不成比例的健康和刑事司法造成非法药物使用的后果的人群中，是否可以将MM改编并传播，以作为滥用药物和成瘾的有效治疗方法吗？芝加哥州立大学城市的正念和成瘾研究（CUMAR）计划是药学，公共卫生，社会工作，咨询和心理学的教师之间的合作。主要的研究项目将是为监禁的药物使用者开发一种以文化量身定制的基于MM的预防复发干预措施，并测试其在防止复发和累犯方面的功效。一个基础科学试验项目的重点是内源性末端大麻素系统在调节药物戒断焦虑症状中的作用。第二项试点研究的重点是通过对案例管理人员的MM培训来增强案例管理，以减轻压力并提高人际交往能力。第三项试点研究探讨了涉及刑事司法系统的毒品用户的特质/性格正念，药物使用和药物依从性之间的关联。因此，该计划的总体施舍是为了提高正念的神经科学。将其应用于减少参与刑事司法系统人员的吸毒和成瘾；改善药物滥用案件管理的交付；并训练和激发来自代表性不足的团体的新一代研究人员。
