Demonstrating BASICS: Creating Effective Multimedia Practitioner Training Tools

描述（由申请人提供）：大学生中酗酒和相关酒精相关负面后果的日益普遍，表明迫切需要以证据为基础的酒精滥用预防计划，并提供足够的培训援助，以支持其有效交付和实施。大学生酒精筛查和干预（BASICS）是值得注意的随机对照试验，证明其在减少大学生问题饮酒和酒精相关伤害的有效性。虽然已经开发了BASICS手册、从业者培训研讨会和演示视频来帮助项目传播;但从业者和机构可用的培训工具不足以进行BASICS模型的广泛临床培训。卡斯卡迪亚成瘾研究和教育有限责任公司（CARE）致力于通过教育服务和技术创新传播成瘾预防和治疗方面的循证实践。CARE打算开发两个BASICS DVD，将展示与大学生的动机访谈技巧（DVD 1），并模拟BASICS计划的评估和反馈部分，忠实于支持其功效的研究（DVD 2）。第一阶段SBIR项目的目标有三个方面：（1）招募参加过BASICS研讨会的从业人员（n=50），以评估当前的视频并确定其临床和技术优势和局限性;（2）开发两个DVD，展示利用数字视频的独特技术特征提供BASICS计划的基本临床组成部分;以及（3）评估两种原型BASICS DVD在大学生健康专业人员中的可行性、实用性和商业潜力（n=40）。拟议的研究将解决迫切的公共卫生需要有效的，个性化的，具有成本效益的预防计划，解决大学生酗酒问题。BASICS DVD的开发、评估和分发将鼓励在学院和大学以及满足大学生需求的医疗保健中心更广泛地传播这一最佳实践计划。

DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): The growing prevalence of heavy drinking and associated alcohol-related negative consequences among college students indicates a pressing need for evidence-based alcohol abuse prevention programs with adequate training aids to support their effective delivery and implementation. The Brief Alcohol Screening and Intervention for College Students (BASICS) is notable for randomized controlled trials demonstrating its efficacy in reducing problematic drinking and alcohol-related harm among college students. While a BASICS manual, practitioner training workshop, and demonstration video have been developed to aid program dissemination; the training tools available to practitioners and institutions are not adequate for widespread clinical training in the BASICS model. Cascadia Addiction Research and Education, LLC (CARE) is committed to the dissemination of evidence-based practices in addiction prevention and treatment through educational services and technological innovation. CARE intends to develop two BASICS DVDs that will demonstrate motivational interviewing techniques with college students (DVD 1) and model both the assessment and feedback portions of the BASICS program with fidelity to the research supporting its efficacy (DVD 2). The goals for this Phase I SBIR Project are threefold: (1) to recruit practitioners (n=50) who have attended a BASICS Workshop to evaluate the current video and identify its clinical and technical strengths and limitations; (2) to develop two DVDs that demonstrate the essential clinical components of BASICS program delivery utilizing the unique technical features of digital video; and (3) to assess the feasibility, utility, and commercial potential of the two prototype BASICS DVDs among college student health professionals (n=40). The proposed research will address the urgent public health need for efficacious, individualized, and cost-effective prevention programs addressing alcohol abuse among college students. The development, evaluation, and distribution of the BASICS DVDs will encourage broader dissemination of this Best Practice program among colleges and universities as well as in health care centers serving the needs of college students.
