精神障碍很普遍,可能导致严重的损害。在建立治疗方法方面已经取得了一些进展;然而,效果大小是小到中等的,收益可能不会持续,许多患者没有受益。我们的目标是强调通过整合认知心理学和教育研究的见解来改善经验支持的心理社会治疗的潜力。我们的中心问题是:如果有可能改善对心理社会治疗内容的记忆,结果会大大改善吗?我们利用对学习和记忆的科学知识的见解来获得transdiagnosis和transtreatment认知支持干预的策略。这些策略可以应用于会话内和会话之间,并通过计算机,互联网和短信提供干预。其他改善记忆的新途径包括改善睡眠,参与锻炼和使用图像。鉴于记忆过程在一生中会发生变化,为儿童和老年人提供的服务可能会受益于不同类型和数量的认知支持。
Mental disorders are prevalent and can lead to significant impairment. Some progress has been made toward establishing treatments; however, effect sizes are small to moderate, gains may not persist, and many patients derive no benefit. Our goal is to highlight the potential for empirically supported psychosocial treatments to be improved by incorporating insights from cognitive psychology and research on education. Our central question is: If it were possible to improve memory for the content of sessions of psychosocial treatments, would outcome substantially improve? We leverage insights from scientific knowledge on learning and memory to derive strategies for transdiagnostic and transtreatment cognitive support interventions. These strategies can be applied within and between sessions and to interventions delivered via computer, the Internet, and text message. Additional novel pathways to improving memory include improving sleep, engaging in exercise, and using imagery. Given that memory processes change across the lifespan, services to children and older adults may benefit from different types and amounts of cognitive support.
