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).
