Addiction is a growing public health crisis, yet comparatively very few health services psychology programs include formal training in addiction science (Dimoff, Sayette, Norcross, 2017). Health services psychologists (i.e., psychologists who integrate psychological science and practice to understand development and functioning; APA, 2015) are well-suited to study and treat addiction, and doctoral level training is an ideal time to prepare future health services psychologists to do so. One possible barrier to incorporating addiction science training is the necessity of a multidisciplinary approach to study and treat addiction and related health behaviors. We focus primarily on clinical science training and argue for a multi-faceted approach to doctoral training in addiction science that would prepare trainees for research careers. The proposed training model emphasizes the importance of mentorship, coursework, grant preparation, responsible conduct of research, prevention, intervention, and treatment, and invited speakers and conference attendance. Each of these components is discussed with an emphasis on addiction science. We offer suggestions for incorporating portions of this training model for programs with few addiction science related resources. We also discuss the importance of enhancing diversity and inclusion in addiction training and offer brief recommendations on this topic.

培训卫生服务心理学家从事成瘾科学的研究工作。



成瘾是一个日益严重的公共卫生危机,但相对而言,很少有健康服务心理学项目包括成瘾科学的正式培训(Dimoff、Sayette、Norcross,2017)。卫生服务心理学家(即整合心理科学和实践来理解发展和功能的心理学家;APA,2015)非常适合研究和治疗成瘾,博士级培训是为未来的卫生服务心理学家做好准备的理想时机。纳入成瘾科学培训的一个可能障碍是需要采用多学科方法来研究和治疗成瘾及相关健康行为。我们主要关注临床科学培训,并主张采用多方面的方法进行成瘾科学博士培训,为学员的研究生涯做好准备。拟议的培训模式强调指导、课程作业、拨款准备、负责任的研究、预防、干预和治疗以及邀请演讲者和出席会议的重要性。对这些组成部分中的每一个都进行了讨论,重点是成瘾科学。我们建议将这种培训模型的部分内容纳入到成瘾科学相关资源很少的项目中。我们还讨论了增强成瘾训练多样性和包容性的重要性,并就此主题提供了简短的建议。
