这篇文章描述了四名社会工作研究人员的经历，他们在获得社会工作博士学位后立即寻求另一条职业道路，接受了由美国国立卫生研究院(NIH)资助的博士后培训奖学金。随着社会工作学院寻找创造性的方法来建设研究能力，本文描述了作者对接受博士后的考虑因素、培训计划的关键要素、所学到的经验教训以及培训结果的观点。为了概述与社会工作相关的机构和中心的筹资机制和资金分配情况，从列出每年发放的NIH培训补助金的数据库中获得数据。研究结果显示，研究员的培训计划变化有限。大部分培训时间用于培养手稿准备、赠款开发和对NIH文化的社会化的技能。最重要的是，对高级研究培训的渴望是接受博士后培训职位的一个至关重要的因素。最后，培训的结果可能会对专业发展产生深远的影响，但与没有接受过社会工作博士后培训的人相比，在学术岗位上的博士后研究员的长期轨迹需要进一步研究。
This article describes the experiences of four social work researchers who pursued an alternative career path immediately following their doctorate in social work by accepting a postdoctoral training fellowship funded by the National Institutes of Health (NIH). As schools of social work look for creative ways to build research capacity, this article describes the authors' perspectives regarding the considerations to accept postdocs, key elements in their training programs, lessons learned, and outcomes from training. To provide an overview of the funding mechanism and distribution of funds to institutes and centers relevant to social work, data were obtained from databases that list NIH training grants awarded each year. Study results showed a limited amount of variation in fellows' training plans. The majority of training time was spent building skill in manuscript preparation, grant development, and socialization to the NIH culture. Above all other themes, the desire for advanced research training was a critically important factor in accepting a postdoctoral training position. Finally, the outcomes of training may have a profound effect on professional development, yet the long-term trajectory of postdoctoral fellows in academic positions as compared with people without postdoctoral training in social work programs requires further study.
