Abstract

Background

Community Reinforcement and Family Training (CRAFT) is an evidence-based training-program, specifically geared to assist family members of identified patients with problems in the area of substance use, autism, psychosis, “hikikomori”, etc. The purpose of this qualitative research is to examine therapists’ barriers and facilitators to apply CRAFT in general practice, by means of interviews and questionnaire surveys.in Japan.

Method

By using snowball sampling techniques, nine Japanese therapists were recruited. Subsequently, these therapists had the ambition to enroll the CRAFT certification process, according an advance therapist-expert feedback system based on audio-tapes. Assessment about therapists’ barriers and facilitators aimed to disseminate and implement CRAFT were completed online during a 30–60 minutes semi-structured interview. Furthermore, implementation outcomes measures were also collected.

Result

Data of nine therapists were collected showing multiple aspects that promote or impede the application of CRAFT in daily routine practice. In general, it was shown that private costs for attending expert training and coding, working with a protocol, may impede the dissemination of CRAFT in Japan.

Conclusion

CRAFT is well-received by Japanese therapists, although some barriers remain that need to be addressed to promote a more widely dissemination.

日本社区强化和家庭培训的传播和实施因素：一项试点研究

社区强化和家庭培训（CRAFT）是一项基于证据的培训计划，专门针对在药物使用、自闭症、精神病、“隐蔽青年”等方面有问题的确诊患者的家庭成员提供帮助。本定性研究的目的是通过访谈和问卷调查的方式，检查治疗师在一般实践中应用CRAFT的障碍和促进因素。在日本。方法采用滚雪球抽样法，对9名日本心理治疗师进行调查。随后，根据一个基于录音带的高级治疗师-专家反馈系统，这些治疗师有了加入CRAFT认证过程的雄心。对旨在传播和实施CRAFT的治疗师障碍和辅导员的评估在30-60 分钟的半结构化在线访谈中完成。此外，还收集了实施结果措施。结果收集了9位治疗师的数据，显示了促进或阻碍CRAFT在日常实践中的应用的多个方面。总的来说，根据一项议定书参加专家培训和编码的私人费用可能会阻碍手工技术在日本的传播。结论craft在日本治疗师中受到广泛欢迎，但仍有一些障碍需要解决，以促进其更广泛的传播。

期刊介绍： Evaluation and Program Planning is based on the principle that the techniques and methods of evaluation and planning transcend the boundaries of specific fields and that relevant contributions to these areas come from people representing many different positions, intellectual traditions, and interests. In order to further the development of evaluation and planning, we publish articles from the private and public sectors in a wide range of areas: organizational development and behavior, training, planning, human resource development, health and mental, social services, mental retardation, corrections, substance abuse, and education.
