OBJECTIVE: Evidence for treatment efficacy does not guarantee adoption in clinical practice. Attitudinal "buy-in" from clinicians is also important. This study examines evaluation data from a national training program in an evidence-based treatment for @entity1005 , @entity1162 ( @entity1162 ) therapy, to assess changes in clinician beliefs related to the importance of specific treatment goals, @entity1162 outcome expectations, self-efficacy to deliver @entity1162 , perceived time and emotional burdens associated with delivering @entity1162 , and intentions to use @entity1162 . METHOD: Training included both an interactive workshop and posttraining telephone consultation. @entity1 were 943 licensed mental health clinicians who treated veterans with @entity1005 . They completed questionnaires before and after the workshop, and after consultation. RESULTS: Results indicated that workshop participation was associated with significant increases in perceptions of the importance of helping @entity1 improve by employing @entity1162 , expectations that @entity1 would benefit from @entity1162 , and self-efficacy to deliver @entity1162 , and with reduced expectations of negative @entity1 outcomes and concerns about distressing @entity1 . The workshop alone had little impact on expected clinician emotional burden and no impact on anticipated time burden. Participation in ongoing case consultation was associated with additional increases in expected positive @entity1 outcomes and clinician self-efficacy and further reductions in concerns about distressing @entity1 and negative @entity1 outcomes. Unlike the workshop, consultation was associated with decreased expectancies that @entity1162 would take too much time and would be emotionally burdensome to provide. CONCLUSION: Overall, the results suggest that the combination of workshop and ongoing consultation can significantly improve beliefs likely to affect treatment adoption. (PsycINFO Database Record
