Graduate Training in Occupational Health Psychology

 描述(由申请者提供)：我们目前正在为我们的职业健康心理学(OHP)培训计划补助金寻求5年的续签。我们要求每年为总共4名全日制博士后学生提供支持。作为2003年第一笔OHP培训计划赠款(TPG)，我们的计划已成为其他OHP计划发展的典范。我们在2005年获得了5年续订，在2010年又获得了5年续订。波特兰州立大学(PSU)的研究生培训计划旨在解决目前代表不足但正在增长的职业安全与健康学科，即职业健康心理学(OHP)。OHP是一个跨学科的领域，它涉及到应用心理学原理来改善工作-生活质量，并促进工作中人的安全、健康和福祉。OHP的研究人员和实践者从公共卫生、预防医学、护理、工业工程、法律、流行病学和心理学等领域汲取教训，制定合理的理论和实践，以保护和促进工作场所的安全、健康和福祉。到目前为止，我们共有17名辅修OHP的学生毕业，所有人都在相关领域就业，利用他们的OHP知识和技能。我们目前有16名学生参加该项目，另外两名学生将于2015年秋季开始学习。我们的学生被安排在国家认可的实习计划中，毕业后，他们被安排在与OHP相关的学术、政府和行业工作。多年来，我们的计划满足了OHP专业培训的需求，以及我们地区对TPGs的需求。在这一资助期间，我们积极寻求方法，以确保我们在该计划中有强大的多学科重点，并通过我们参与提案中描述的俄勒冈州健康劳动力中心(OHWC)，显着增加了我们与俄勒冈州健康与科学大学(OHSU)教职员工的合作。我们参与了PSU-OHSU公共卫生学院的联合发展，我们加强了与华盛顿大学ERC的联系。此外，我们还为学生提供了丰富的方法论课程(如多水平建模、结构方程建模)。我们还加入了先进研究方法和分析联盟(CARMA)，包括网络研讨会，作为我们学生的额外方法论资源。我们计划的主要长期目标是提供OHP的正式研究生培训，并作为OHP培训的全国典范，在保持多学科性质的同时，成功地平衡科学和实践的观点。

 DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): We are currently seeking a 5 year renewal for our Training Program Grant in Occupational Health Psychology (OHP). We are requesting support for a total of 4 full time predoctoral students per year. Funded as the first OHP training program grant (TPG) in 2003, our program has served as a model for the development of other OHP programs. We received a 5-year renewal in 2005 and another 5 year renewal in 2010. The graduate training program at Portland State University (PSU) is designed to address a currently under-represented, but growing discipline of Occupational Safety and Health, namely, Occupational Health Psychology (OHP). OHP is an interdisciplinary field that involves the application of psychological principles for improving the quality of work-life and for promoting th safety, health, and well-being of people at work. OHP researchers and practitioners draw from the domains of public health, preventive medicine, nursing, industrial engineering, law, epidemiology, and psychology to develop sound theory and practice for protecting and promoting safety, health, and well-being in the workplace. To date we have graduated a total of 17 students with the OHP minor, and all are employed in related fields using their OHP knowledge and skills. We currently have 16 students in the program and another two that will be starting in Fall, 2015. Our students have been placed in nationally-recognized internship programs and upon graduating, they have been placed in academic, government, and industry jobs related to OHP. Over the years, our program has filled a need for specialized training in OHP, as well as a need for TPGs in our region. During this funding period we proactively sought ways to ensure that we have a strong multidisciplinary focus in the program and have significantly increased our collaboration with faculty at the Oregon Health and Sciences University (OHSU) through our participation in the Oregon Healthy Workforce Center (OHWC) described in the proposal. We are involved in the development of the joint PSU-OHSU School of Public Health, and we have strengthened our ties with the University of Washington-ERC. Furthermore, we have a wealth of methodology courses (e.g., Multi-Level Modeling, Structural Equation Modeling) for students. We have also joined the Consortium for the Advancement Research Methods and Analysis (CARMA) including webinars as an additional methodological resource for our students. The primary long term goals of our program are to provide formal graduate training in OHP and to serve as a national model for OHP training that successfully balances science and practice perspectives while remaining multidisciplinary in nature.
