This subproject is one of many research subprojects utilizing the resources provided by a Center grant funded by NIH/NCRR. Primary support for the subproject and the subproject's principal investigator may have been provided by other sources, including other NIH sources. The Total Cost listed for the subproject likely represents the estimated amount of Center infrastructure utilized by the subproject, not direct funding provided by the NCRR grant to the subproject or subproject staff. Rhode Island College students and faculty within the Chemical Dependency & Addiction Studies (CDAS) Program will conduct an investigation of an Internet-based training modality for addictions counselors. Despite government initiatives to translate evidence-based research to substance abuse treatment context, transmission of research to practicing professionals has been limited. Studies found that one-third of counselors working with addicted individuals may not have any experience with substance abuse specific training. The majority of behavioral health practitioners have infrequent experience with continuing education events that serve as the primary modality for transmission of addiction information. Continuing education conferences have not impacted on the practice of treatment providers. Therefore, addiction research remains largely isolated from providers it is intended to inform. Barriers to training were time commitments, inadequate financial resources, and inconvenient training locations. Although some internet-learning addiction education programs exist, none addresses the evidence-based treatment of individuals with co-occurring addiction disorders and medical problems. This on-line coursework would help bridge the gap between knowledge of effective treatment in research to actual practice in the community  a priority identified by the Institute of Medicine. The Internet-Based Addiction Counselor Education Study (IBACES) will: 1) implement a pilot demonstration of an Internet based program for training CDAS student, with later generalization to community-based practitioners 2) disseminate current knowledge about the Addiction Counseling Competencies of Professional Practice and examine their impact on State Certification for Chemical Dependency Counseling 3) conduct a randomized controlled trial to measure knowledge transfer and preparation using the Internet. The on-line coursework in our study (Internet-Based Addiction Counselor Education Study) would help to bridge the gap between knowledge of effective treatment in the research world to actual practice in the community. Additionally, the research focus groups currently being undertaken will hopefully increase understanding of the impact of addiction recovery support services upon existing health programs. Based on the research being done, presentations related to addiction recovery will be made to key groups associated with the Rhode Island Department of Health (at their request) especially relating to HIV/AIDS and Hepatitis C during 2011.

这个子项目是许多利用资源的研究子项目之一 由NIH/NCRR资助的中心拨款提供。子项目的主要支持 而子项目的主要调查员可能是由其他来源提供的， 包括其它NIH来源。 列出的子项目总成本可能 代表子项目使用的中心基础设施的估计数量， 而不是由NCRR赠款提供给子项目或子项目工作人员的直接资金。 罗得岛大学的学生和教师在化学依赖和成瘾研究（CDAS）计划将进行一项调查，基于互联网的成瘾辅导员培训模式。尽管政府倡议将循证研究转化为药物滥用治疗背景，但研究向执业专业人员的传播有限。研究发现，与成瘾者一起工作的辅导员中有三分之一可能没有任何药物滥用特定培训的经验。大多数行为健康从业者很少有继续教育活动的经验，这些活动是传递成瘾信息的主要方式。继续教育会议对治疗提供者的做法没有影响。因此，成瘾研究在很大程度上仍然与它打算提供信息的提供者隔离。培训的障碍是时间承诺、财政资源不足和培训地点不便。虽然存在一些网络学习成瘾教育项目，但没有一个项目涉及对同时存在成瘾障碍和医疗问题的个体的循证治疗。这种在线课程将有助于弥合研究中有效治疗知识与社区实际做法之间的差距  医学研究所确定的优先事项。基于互联网的成瘾辅导员教育研究（IBACES）将：1）实施一项基于互联网的培训CDAS学生计划的试点示范，随后推广到社区从业人员2）传播有关专业实践成瘾咨询能力的现有知识，并检查其对化学依赖咨询国家认证的影响3）进行随机对照试验，以衡量知识转移和准备使用互联网。 我们研究中的在线课程（基于互联网的成瘾咨询师教育研究）将有助于弥合研究世界中有效治疗知识与社区实际做法之间的差距。此外，目前正在进行的研究重点小组将有望增加对成瘾康复支持服务对现有健康计划的影响的理解。根据正在进行的研究，2011年期间，将向与罗得岛卫生部有关的主要群体（应其要求）介绍与戒毒有关的情况，特别是与艾滋病毒/艾滋病和丙型肝炎有关的情况。
