1 Spring 2009 COURSE SYLLABUS Rutgers University Graduate Psychology ASSESSMENT AND TREATMENT OF ALCOHOL ABUSE AND ALCOHOLISM 18:821:630:01 Tuesdays 9:15 a.m. 12:00 p.m. Center of Alcohol Studies, Room 219 Instructor: Elizabeth Epstein, Ph.D. Offices and Contact information: Brinkley & Adele Smithers Hall, #354, Ext , or Course Goals: To provide a graduate level overview of theoretical models, research, and clinical techniques related to the assessment, diagnosis and treatment of substance abuse, dependence, and related problems. Emphasis will be on alcohol but other drugs will be discussed as well. Course Requirements: There are four major course requirements: 1. Readings and Class Participation (25%): Readings are assigned each week. You are expected to do all of the reading. Readings generally include one chapter from the text and two to four supplementary articles each week. Most classes will begin with a brief individual or group exercise related to the readings, which will then serve as a springboard for discussion. I encourage active class participation, which should include asking questions, relating presentations to the readings, and generally playing with the ideas and materials. In addition to discussion of readings, most classes will include some kind of active learning exercise, so be prepared to role play, engage in small group discussions, etc. If you have to miss a class, please let me know. 2. Paper Outline (25% of grade): You are asked to NOT to write a review paper related to issues in the conceptualization, assessment or treatment of alcohol problems. However, you are asked to prepare a DETAILED OUTLINE of such a paper; this would be a scholarly paper, drawing on empirical and theoretical literature. The paper would pose a major question, and attempt to answer this question through reference to the literature. The paper would not draw much upon your clinical or experiential knowledge about alcohol problems. The paper would be about pages (exclusive of references), and written strictly in accordance with APA style. A list of ideas for paper topics appears in this syllabus, but is meant only to stimulate your thinking. You do not have to select a topic from this list. You may elect to have your outline distributed to everyone in the class, but this will not be required. Paper outline topics should be decided upon and cleared with me by February 17, I strongly suggest you give me a draft outline to read within two weeks of that date. I will read and return it within a week. The final outlines are due on April 28, Clinical Experience (25% of grade): Each student should have a clinical experience to complement the academic aspects of the course. There are several alternative experiences that could satisfy this requirement: 1

2 a. a. Self-help group observation. There are several different self-help groups for persons with substance use disorders and for their family members. Alcohol-related groups include: Alcoholics Anonymous, S.M.A.R.T., Moderation Management, Women for Sobriety, and Al-Anon. You may attend self-help group meetings as an alternative clinical experience. You must attend at least 3 meetings of three different types of self-help groups, in order to obtain a good picture of the structure and function of these groups. At least one has to be AA, one NA, and one additional one of your choice (the third can be an additional AA or NA meeting but in a different town than the first one you attended). b. Intoxicated Driver Resource Centers. Persons in New Jersey who are arrested for Driving While Intoxicated (DWI) must attend a weekend long educational program at an Intoxicated Driver Resource Center (IDRC). You may attend one of these programs to learn about the structure, function and content of these programs. c. c. Interviews with persons with drinking problems. You may conduct an interview with a person who have resolved a previous drinking problem. You should spend at least two hours interviewing the person and cover the following topics (at a minimum): development of the problem, signs and symptoms, how the problem was recognized, unsuccessful attempts at change, how successful change was effected, and perspectives on how the person's life is different. d. d. Involvement/observation of an Employee Assistance Program (EAP). A major source of clinical referrals is the workplace. You may contact a local EAP to develop an experience in an EAP setting. If you elect this experience, you should seek opportunities to observe/be involved with supervisor training or assessment and triage of individual employees. You should also review the full written EAP policy of the organization. e. e. Other clinical experiences. If you have an alternative idea for a clinically relevant experience, please discuss it with me. For all clinically relevant experiences, you are required to write up a 5 page summary of the experience. The format for the write-up will vary with the type of experience, but should include (1) objective information, (2) your subjective appraisal of the person, program, or experience, and (3) how you assess the relationship between what you observed or experienced and the theoretical/research literature on the topic. These write-ups are due when you complete the clinical experience, or by March 24 at the latest. 4.Personal change project (25% of grade): A good way to learn about the specific treatment interventions in the alcohol field is to apply them to your own behavior. For the personal change project, you will be required to do the following: (1) Select a behavior of your own that you would like to change. This behavior might be a consummatory behavior (e.g. cigarettes, food in general or certain classes of food, caffeine), or another behavior that you would like to decrease (e. g. television watching, sedentary activities). Selecting a behavior that you would like to increase typically does not work well for this assignment, because is too dissimilar to the need to stop/decrease drinking. (2) You may elect different levels of self-disclosure about the self-change target. The default is that you tell no one what your target behavior is. You may elect to tell me 2

3 individually, or the class as a whole. (3) Each week, through April 21, we will cover one week of a typical cognitive-behavioral treatment program for alcohol abuse/dependence, and you will apply the intervention to your own target behavior and report on the results the following week. (4) You will be expected to keep an ongoing record of the target behavior, and to graph the behavior each week. (5) You will be expected to engage in simple behavioral homework assignments (e. g. completing a decision matrix about the pros and cons of changing the behavior, conducting a functional analysis of variables controlling the behavior). (6) In class, I would hope that you will discuss your reactions to the various interventions. You will be graded on compliance with assignments, not on your success in self change.

11 Suggested Paper Outline Topics: This list suggests some possible questions for your papers. If you select one of these topics, don't feel obligated to address every issue that I listed under the topic. 1. Discuss the treatment of an underserved group, such as women, Blacks, Hispanics, gays or lesbians, or the homeless. Discuss research about alcohol problems in this group, as well as suggested approaches to treatment and data about effectiveness. 2. Review research on alcoholism and other psychiatric disorders. Consider issues related to prevalence, differential diagnosis, treatment and long term outcome. 3. Examine issues related to mandatory treatment of alcohol and drug use problems. Consider such questions as prevalence of mandatory treatment, evidence of its effectiveness, for whom it is most and least appropriate. Also consider legal and ethical issues. 4. Examine whether the outcomes for alcoholism are different with and without treatment. Consider both drinking and quality of life issues. 5. Discuss different models of the nature of alcohol problems, empirical evidence related to these models, the values and limitations of these models for planning of services, and your own conclusions about what model you prefer. 6. Discuss models for treatment of persons who have problems with both alcohol and other drugs. Are there models with empirical support? What are the outcomes? 7. Consider different models for conceptualizing the behavior of members of alcoholics' families (e.g. coping models, disease models). What empirical support exists for different models? Are there research data supporting treatments derived from these models? 8. What environmental and person variables predict help-seeking for alcohol problems? How do these variables interact? 9. Discuss alcohol use and abuse in work environments. Are particular work environments, occupations, or organizational structures associated with greater or lesser alcohol problems? What types of workplace interventions or programs appear most effective in dealing with alcohol problems? 10. Discuss the controlled drinking controversy. What key issues informed the controversy at the beginning? How has discussion of controlled or moderated drinking evolved in the United States? Are perspectives different in other countries'? 11. Discuss harm reduction. What are key elements in the model? How does harm reduction apply to alcohol problems? What are advantages and disadvantages of a harm reduction approach? What is the scientific/research base for harm reduction? 12. Discuss treatment planning and patient-treatment matching how does the evidence guide clinical practice? 11
