DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): Treatments exist that have been empirically demonstrated to reduce anxiety, depression, and numerous psychosocial other emotional disorders in children and adolescents. However, a wide gap exists between clinical research and practice, such that empirically supported treatments (ESTs) are rarely implemented in clinical settings. This gap undermines the positive impact psychotherapy can have in childhood, and may ultimately reduce the value society places on psychosocial treatment for mental health problems. One obstacle contributing to this situation is the difficulty practitioners have in identifying effective treatments and obtaining the material necessary to use them in their practices. Our overall goal is to create an archive or collection of psychotherapy treatment programs for which scientific evidence of effectiveness exists when implemented with school age children and adolescents. The Children's Emotional Disorders Effective Treatment Archive (CEDETA) will consist of complete replication kits of all necessary materials for implementation in practice settings. To ensure that this program archive is used by the practice community for the selection of appropriate treatment programs their successful replication, and evaluation, several additional innovative products will be developed. The goal of the proposed Phase I project is to test the feasibility of this product development plan. More specifically, we will address the following questions: (1) Can a set of criteria be developed that can be reliably applied by experts in the selection of treatment programs to be included in the CEDETA; (2) Can an adequate set of exemplary treatment programs be identified that have empirical support and meet the selection criteria; (3) Can permission be obtained to acquire, upgrade, market, and disseminate treatment manuals and ancillary material from the developer(s) of the selected treatment programs; (4) Can original treatment program material be enhanced to be useable in the practice community and commercially viable; and (5) Can additional resources be specified and their content detailed that will facilitate the (a) selection, (b) evaluation and scientific advancement of psychosocial treatment, programs and (c) the education of mental health practitioners about ESTs? Sociometrics has been a pioneer in bridging the science-to-practice' gap through its innovative archiving and dissemination of effective programs to practitioners and brings a wealth of experience and expertise to this endeavor. The commercial market for these products is substantial with over 412,000 mental health professionals and about 6,900,000 children and adolescents with anxiety disorders and 3,200,000 with depressive disorders (a portion of these have both types of disorders).

描述（由申请人提供）：存在经验证明的治疗方法，可减少儿童和青少年的焦虑，抑郁和许多心理社会情绪障碍。但是，临床研究和实践之间存在很大的差距，因此在临床环境中很少实施经验支持的治疗方法（EST）。这一差距破坏了心理治疗在儿童时期可能产生的积极影响，并最终可能会降低社会对心理健康问题的心理社会治疗的价值。造成这种情况的一个障碍是从业者难以识别有效的治疗方法并获得在实践中使用它们所需的材料。我们的总体目标是创建一个档案或收集心理治疗治疗计划的档案或收集，以该计划在学龄儿童和青少年实施时，为此提供了有效性的科学证据。儿童的情绪障碍有效的治疗档案（Cedeta）将包括在实践环境中实施的所有必要材料的完整复制套件。为了确保实践社区使用该计划档案库来选择适当的治疗计划，并评估其成功，将开发出其他一些创新产品。 拟议的I期项目的目标是测试该产品开发计划的可行性。更具体地说，我们将解决以下问题：（1）可以开发一组标准，这些标准可以由专家在选择中包括在Cedeta中的治疗计划中可靠地应用； （2）是否可以确定一组具有经验支持并符合选择标准的示例性治疗计划； （3）可以从所选治疗计划的开发人员那里获得获取，升级，市场和传播治疗手册和辅助材料的许可； （4）可以增强原始治疗计划的材料以在实践社区中可用并在商业上可行； （5）是否可以指定其他资源，并详细介绍其内容，以促进（a）选择，（b）对心理社会治疗，计划以及（c）对EST的心理健康从业者的教育的评估和科学进步？通过其创新的归档和传播有效的计划的创新档案和传播，社会计量学一直是弥合科学实践差距的先驱，并为这项工作带来了丰富的经验和专业知识。这些产品的商业市场非常重要，有超过412,000名精神卫生专业人员，大约6,900,000名患有焦虑症的儿童和青少年，有320万人患有抑郁症（其中一部分都有两种疾病）。
