The purpose of the data collection is
to evaluate an educational program developed with funding from NIDA
through a Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) contract. This
project is developing online training and education materials for
primary care physicians (PCPs). "Primary care physician" is defined
as a physician who specializes in family medicine, internal
medicine, pediatrics in primary care, obstetrics or gynecology in
primary care, and emergency medicine for acute primary care
problems. The educational goal of these materials is to teach PCPs
about screening, brief intervention, and treatment to referral
(SBIRT) for substance abuse. The project will create a multimedia,
interactive program with didactic online learning and skills
training via video and Internet based chat experiences mimicking
the "Objective Structured Clinical Examination" (OSCE) interactions
familiar to PCPs from their professional training. In Phase I of
this SBIR project, a curriculum for the online program was
developed and reviewed by experts, and the feasibility of the
technology transfer was demonstrated. In Phase II, the online
program was completed and now needs to be evaluated by participants
from the potential target audience in order to demonstrate
effectiveness in improving learner knowledge, attitudes, and
relevant clinical skills (such as screening for substance
abuse).
