## Cognitive Behavioral Therapy 

**Enduring Effects and Mechanisms**
**Bruce J. Rounsaville**
**Yale University**

## Slide 2

## Cognitive Behavioral Coping Skills

- Based on social learning theory
- Substance use is functionally related to other problems
- Emphasizes learning of coping skills
- Initiation and mastery of skills through practice, role playing, and extra-sessions tasks

## Functional Analysis

- Exploration of substance use
- in relationship to
- antecedents and consequences

## Slide 5

## CBT for drug dependence

- Introduction to functional analysis
- Coping with craving
- Shoring up motivation
- Refusal skills and assertiveness
- Seemingly Irrelevant Decisions
- All purpose coping plan
- Problem solving
- Case management
- Termination

## Empirical support for CBT

- CBT may be more effective for more severe cocaine abusers
- Carroll et al., 1994, 1998; McKay et al 1997; Maude-Griffin et al, 1998

## Slide 8

## Empirical support for CBT

- CBT’s effects appear to be durable up to one year after treatment ends
- CBT appears to be associated with continuing improvement in substance use

- <date/time>

**MTP: Marijuana use through 15 months**

## Does CBT work the way we think it works?

- Initial exploration of mechanisms of action of CBT:
- Does CBT differentially increase coping skills?
- Are coping skills related to outcome?

## Cocaine Risk Response Test

- Role playing task based on Chaney’s work, administered pre-and posttreatment
- Example:  “You are at a party, where you didn’t think cocaine would be available.  However, you notice people going in and out of a back bedroom, and a friend invites you to join them.  What do you do?

## Cocaine Risk Response Test

- Audiotaped responses to 10 high risk situations scored on 6 dimensions:
- Latency
- Number of coping plans
- Quality of best plan
- Overall quality
- Specificity
- Type of coping response

## Psychometric properties

- Good interrater reliability (.74-.89)
- Good internal consistency (.79-.96)
- Significant pre-posttreatment increases in number of coping plans, quality of response, specificity of response

## Slide 20

## Treatment and coping skills acquisition

- Significant treatment condition by time interactions suggest patients assigned to CBT, TSF, or Clinical Management show greater increases in coping skills associated with that treatment condition
- Higher posttreatment CBT skills associated with significantly less cocaine use during follow-up

## First IMAGE-ing of Particle Acceleration by Dynamic Magnetic Fields (HENA) 

- Magnetic storm particle acceleration before IMAGE:
- Tail magnetic field relaxes impulsively
- Energetic particle fluxes increase
- Auroral brightens and expands
-  What is happening here?
- Particles injected from tail?
- Particles released from radiation belts?
- IMAGE-ing by HENA (next page) reveals:
- Pre-existing dense plasma sheet
- Moves Earthward and fluxes intensify
- Conclusion
- Particles are accelerated and injected, intensifying fluxes closer to Earth, as magnetic field relaxes abruptly.
- Consistent with model of Fok et al., JGR 1999.

## Forcing of the Climate System

**Forcing of the Climate ****System**

- Greenhouse gases
- Sulfate and carbon aerosols (direct and indirect effects)
- Stratospheric and tropospheric ozone
- Volcanic eruptions
- Land surface and biomass burning

## The Global Mean Radiative Forcing of the Climate System with Uncertainties Estimates

**Has this picture changed much since IPCC 2001?**

## Ensemble Simulations

**Ensemble Simulations**

## Slide 5

## (direct effect only)

**(****direct effect only****)**

## Problems and gaps in Chap. 2

- P. 19 line 7-10 suggestion that aerosols could favorably offset CO2 forcing. Not likely globally but may be important regionally.
- P. 19 line 11-12 air quality versus global warming: Poor air quality acts to cool the surface temperature while greenhouse gases increase tend to warm. Computer models simulations are needed to separate air quality emissions effects versus greenhouse case emissions effects.
- P. 19-20 North American Carbon Program is excellent but it is doubtful that will provide “near-term information” to decision makers on a time scale of 5 years. Interannual and decadal variations may make it difficult to establish trends on 5 year time scale.
- P. 21-24 “How much of the expected climate change is the consequence of feedback processes?” This section correctly reflects the opinion of many atmospheric scientists, especially those engaged in cloud treatments in climate models.
- P. 21 line 25 Definition of “parameterized” as “simplified for incorporation in the models” in not quite right.
- P. 22 line 14-15 as Product and Payoff  “Improved estimates of global radiative energy losses arising from water vapor variability in the upper troposphere.” –not clear what this means.

## Gaps and Problems

- P. 22-24 “Feedback in the Polar Regions” discusses important research, however, there does not seem to be large coordinated field experiments planned. These types of experiments are essential to getting an integrated picture of the feedback mechanisms. The “Research Needs” on p. 23 seem to be interesting independent efforts but with little emphasis on cloud, snow, and sea ice feedback mechanisms. This is an area that improved understanding is critical for improved climate modeling in the polar regions.
- Gaps: 1. No discussion of land surface changes and ozone changes on climate change.
- Recent SCIENCE paper by Lohmann and Lesins suggests indirect aerosol effect is smaller than previously estimated. Their estimate of the total aerosol effect is -0.85 W/mm. This result needs to be tested by other researchers.

## AHIC EHR Workgroup Meeting:  How to Improve the EHR Fraud Exceptions

**Jeffrey G. Micklos**
**Sr. Vice President, Business Operations**
**& General Counsel**

## Recommendations to Improve The EHR Fraud and Abuse Exceptions

**Recommendations to Improve The EHR Fraud and Abuse Exceptions**

-   **Regulatory:  15 percent “Cost-  ****	****Sharing”**
-    -  Reg should state “at least” 15 percent
-    -   Further clarification needed of information
-        technology subject to 15 percent
-        requirement
- ▪  **Regulatory:  Interoperability**
-     - Main definition still highly onerous
-     -  Deemed status:  12 month limitation
-         affects multi-year rollouts

## Recommendations to Improve the EHR Fraud and Abuse Exceptions

**Regulatory/Legislative:**  Include hardware in the definition of information technology.
**Legislative:**  Federal preemption;   inconsistent state fraud and abuse rules are hindering adoption.
**Legislative: ** Enact similar protections under the Civil Monetary Penalty Law

## Re-evaluating risk messages in TV drug commercials

- Some recent linguistic and psychological research

- Lewis Glinert, Ph.D.
- Dartmouth College
- Lewis.Glinert@Dartmouth.edu

- Glinert, Lewis H. and Schommer, Jon C.
- Television Advertisement Format and the Provision of Risk Information about Prescription Drug Products
*Research in Social and Administrative Pharmacy 1(2), pp. 185-210, 2005.*

## Glinert, Lewis H. and Schommer, Jon C.

- Goal of this study:
- To seek ways to improve the required risk messages in TV prescription drug advertisements.
- Method:
- (1) We took two ads, one for a lower-risk and one for a higher-risk medication
- (2) We produced alternative versions of the ads: (a) with the risk information shifted to the end, and (b) with a female instead of a male voice-over. In both cases, we added the same risk message in  captions.
-  Subjects:   135 first year pharmacy students at a Midwestern college of pharmacy

## Glinert, Lewis H. and Schommer, Jon C

- Results
- For the higher-risk medication, placing the risk information at the end of the advertisement and adding captions:
- (1) improved the recall of general and specific side effect information, but without making the medication appear more risky;
- (2) created a perception that the advertisement was more informative;
- (3) reduced distraction;
- (4) reduced information overload, both cognitively and affectively.
- These findings did not apply to the advertisement for the lower-risk medication.

- Glinert, Lewis H.
- TV commercials for prescription drugs:
- A discourse analytic perspective
*Research in Social and Administrative Pharmacy 1(2), pp. 158-184, 2005.  (thematic issue on direct-to-consumer advertising)*

## Glinert, Lewis H.

- Goal of this study:
- 	To illustrate how Discourse Analysis can help predict the effectiveness of TV prescription drug advertisements as a medium of health information.
-  Method:
- 	Discourse analysis is a well-established methodology that combines linguistic and ethnographic procedures to micro-analyse texts and visuals as part of a complex communication. We micro-analysed the text and visuals of several Rx ads, asking what the ad is seeking to do and what messages a viewer is likely to derive.

## Glinert, Lewis H

-  Results
- (1)  Functionally, the advertisements were a bewildering blend of promotion, information and the aesthetic – with many touches of postmodernist irony.
- (2)  Risk messages frequently competed with up-beat music and visuals.
- (3)  There was an intense switching and fusing of styles.
- (4)  Strategic linguistic ambiguity was frequently used.
- (5)  There was much variation and ambivalence as to source of authority and identity of addressee.
- These results point to textual features that deserve experimental or other empirical study.

## Pilot’s Spatial Mental Models for Memory of Heading and Altitude

- Display designers need to know how display location affects pilots attention to and memory for display information.
- Future applications will be strategic, in high density environments, and pilot-centered, while
- Most cockpit display research has addressed tactical low-density (TCAS-like) applications
- Most work on traffic spatial awareness has emphasized non-cockpit applications (e.g. ATC ground-referenced displays)

## Approach and Design

- Determine the spatial distribution of recalled information following a traffic monitoring task on a cockpit situational display (CSD)
- determine type of information recalled
- evaluate candidate models

## Models of Spatial Attentional Distribution

- Spatial
- Proximity

- Relative
- Bearing

- Temporal
- Proximity

- Lighter areas = greater attention

## Spatial Dimensions

- Temporal
- Proximity
- Rings

- Spatial
- Range
- Rings

- Ownship

- Traffic

## Scenarios

- _Aircraft Distribution_
-  **6** aircraft per cell
**3 **pairs of aircraft, one pair at each of three altitudes.  One member of each pair headed toward ownship path and the other headed away.

**48** cells

- _Scenario Construction_
-  **24 **traffic scenarios
-  **12** a/c per scenario
-  all aircraft going same speed

## Task Overview

**Display Study Phase:  **Pilots evaluated a one-minute traffic
-  scenario with respect to their “freedom to maneuver”.  They
- were asked not to use any memorization strategies.
**Interruption Task Phase:  **Pilots were then presented with an interruption task to clear the contents from their short-term memories.
**Evaluation and Recall Phase:  **
-  Pilots gave ratings of “freedom to maneuver”.
-  Pilots recalled as much traffic altitude and heading information as possible.

## Display Study Phase

- Initial CDTI Display

## Interruption Task Phase

- Interruption Task Display

## Evaluation and Recall Phase

- Query Display

## Results

**Bar chart of altitude recall as a function of display location**

**Contour plot of altitude recall as a function of display location**

## Results

**Bar chart of heading recall as a function of display location**

**Contour plot of altitude recall as a function of display location**

## Results Summary

- Recall for altitude and heading was best for aircraft that were spatially close to Ownship.
- Temporal proximity had little or no effect on recall.
- Altitude recall was best for aircraft at relative bearings close to 0 (i.e., straight ahead).

## Conclusions

- Pilots pay more attention to aircraft that are close to Ownship, and to Ownship’s forward path, even when conflict potential is low.
- Display designers need to find ways to focus pilots attention on the most relevant aircraft (e.g., highlighting, temporal proximity rings, etc.)
