Treatment professionals, whether clinicians, scientists, or policy makers, are interested in developing methods to improve behavioral health treatment outcomes. Clinicians are interested in knowing what treatment practices to incorporate into the services they offer clients. Policymakers request guidance regarding which decisions are most likely to lead to effective treatment approaches and structures. Scientists are eager to contribute knowledge pertinent to building and evaluating effective treatment practices and policies. The papers in this special series provide information on substance abuse treatment practices andpresent findings relevant to clinical practice, policy decisions, and scientific inquiry. This paper provides a brief overview of the National Treatment Improvement Evaluation Study (NTIES) and briefly summarizes the other research papers included in this issue, all of which exemplify practice and policy issues in the substance abuse treatment field and bolster approaches applied to address these issues. 相似文献

There is a growing body of evidence that psychosocial variables have a significant ability to predict the outcome of medical
treatment procedures, especially when the procedure is performed to reduce pain. The study described in this paper serves
as an illustration of the valuable role psychologists can play in dealing with the challenges of biopsychosocial assessment
of patients who are candidates for medical treatments, especially elective, invasive procedures. Based on a convergent model
of risk factors that can potentially influence outcomes from spinal surgery and spinal cord stimulation, exclusionary and
cautionary risk factors were identified, and the BHI 2 and BBHI 2 tests were used to assess them. An estimate of the prevalence
of these risk factors was calculated using data obtained from 1,254 patient and community subjects gathered from 106 sites
in 36 US states. Standardized Cautionary Risk and Exclusionary Risk scores demonstrated a test-retest reliability of .85 to
.91. Evidence of validity of these scores was also provided based on subjective and objective criteria, using multiple groups
of patients and community subjects. Recommendations are made regarding how biopsychosocial assessments could be used in collaborative
settings for presurgical candidates to identify risks that could compromise a patient’s ability to benefit from other medical
treatments as well. Once identified, appropriate interventions could ameliorate these risks, or lead to the consideration
of other treatments that are more likely to be effective. Methods of refining this approach for specific clinical applications
are also discussed. 相似文献
