118th, 119th and 120th CONVENTIONS OF THE AMERICAN PSYCHOLOGICAL ASSOCIATION

抽象的。 几乎所有心理学家的工作都受到与不健康饮酒有关的问题的影响。然而，许多人仍然没有意识到酒精研究和治疗的交叉相关性，以及如何跟上该领域的进展。美国心理协会(APA)是美国最大的心理学家、他们的教育工作者和他们的实习生组织，每年举办一次大会，吸引了来自广泛心理学分支学科的数千名与会者。大会规划和与成瘾行为有关的活动，包括有问题的饮酒，由50分部(成瘾)主办，这是APA的一个分部，由NIAAA奖获得者和其他致力于酒精研究的科学家和从业人员组成。本申请旨在将广泛的心理学家，包括在酒精研究领域以外工作的实验和临床研究人员、临床医生和政策制定者，与第50司一起参加。主要目标是通过(1)传播与酒精相关问题的早期检测、干预和治疗相关的循证临床实践的最新进展，以及(2)向寻求填补酒精研究知识库空白的研究人员反馈，促进临床和研究界之间的信息交流。这项申请寻求继续开展由当前R13赠款支持的活动：NIAAA临床医生指南和赠款编写大会前研讨会、职业早期海报会议和社交小时，以及侧重于传播酒精问题识别和治疗中基于证据的做法的研讨会。这些活动将辅以新的小组讨论，以帮助确定临床医生在NIAAA主要倡议中的作用，以及促进对酒精研究特殊主题感兴趣的研究人员和临床医生之间的非正式讨论。拟议的活动将在为期3年的赠款周期内每年在8月份的APA大会上举行。要求每年提供支助，用于支付会议室和视听费用(讲习班和谈话时间)、旅费(15名职业生涯早期海报主持人、6名专题讨论会主持人和6名小组讨论者)、会议登记费(6名谈话小时主持人)和广告费用。这一续订应用程序将APA的大量临床心理学受众与酒精研究的基础和临床研究人员配对，以促进思想的联网和交叉培养。总体目标是通过基础研究、循证实践和酒精研究临床专业知识的双向信息流动，弥合研究和临床实践之间的差距。目标受众经常遇到不健康饮酒引起的许多并发症，美国心理学会大会提供了一个难得的机会，让更广泛的治疗提供者参与进来，否则他们就不会接触到物质使用障碍与精神健康治疗的交叉相关性。这种与酒精有关的工作对于研究和临床心理学社区的持续发展至关重要，最终对于这个社区为公众健康服务的努力也是至关重要的。

ABSTRACT. Virtually all psychologists' work is affected by issues related to unhealthy alcohol use. Many, however, remain unaware of the cross-cutting relevance of alcohol studies and treatment, and ways to keep abreast of advances in the field. The American Psychological Association (APA), the largest organization of psychologists, their educators, and their trainees in the US, hosts an annual convention that attracts thousands of attendees from a wide range of psychological sub-disciplines. Convention programming and events related to addictive behaviors, including problematic alcohol use, are hosted by Division 50 (Addictions), a division of APA replete with NIAAA awardees and other scientists and practitioners devoted to alcohol studies. The present application is designed to bring a broad range of psychologists, including experimental and clinical researchers, clinicians and policymakers who work outside the area of alcohol studies, together with Division 50. The primary objective is to promote information exchange between clinical and research communities through (1) dissemination of current advances in evidence-based clinical practices related to the early detection, intervention, and treatment of alcohol-related problems and (2) feedback to researchers seeking to fill gaps in the alcohol studies knowledge base. This application seeks to continue activities supported by the current R13 grant: NIAAA Clinician's Guide and grant-writing pre-convention workshops, an early-career poster session and social hour, and symposia focused on disseminating evidence- based practices in alcohol problem identification and treatment. These activities will be supplemented with new panel discussions that help define the role of clinicians in major NIAAA initiatives and "conversation hours" that promote informal discussions between researchers and clinicians interested in special topics in alcohol studies. Proposed activities will be held yearly at the August APA Convention during the 3-year grant cycle. Yearly support is requested for room and audiovisual costs (workshops and conversation hours), travel stipends (15 early career poster presenters, 6 symposia presenters, and 6 panel discussants), convention registration coverage (6 conversation hour hosts), and advertising. This renewal application pairs APA's substantial clinical psychology audience with basic and clinical researchers in alcohol studies to facilitate networking and cross-fertilization of ideas. The overall goal is bridge the gap between research and clinical practice through a bi-directional flow of information on basic research, evidence-based practices, and clinical expertise in alcohol studies. The intended audience frequently encounters the many complications that arise from unhealthy alcohol use, and the APA convention presents a rare opportunity to engage the broader spectrum of treatment providers who would otherwise not be exposed to the cross-cutting relevance of substance use disorders to mental health treatment. Such alcohol-related work is vital to the continued development of the research and clinical psychology community and, ultimately, to the efforts of this community to serve general public health.
