Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: El campo de las conductas adictivas es un ámbito profesional de gran demanda y expansión entre los profesionales sanitarios y, en especial, entre los psicólogos. La relevancia del papel de la psicología viene avalada por la evidencia demostrada de la efectividad de las terapias psicológicas en el tratamiento de este tipo de problemas. Frente al reduccionismo biológico, la naturaleza esencial del modelo psicológico consiste en analizar y explicar las conductas adictivas en relación con el contexto, como parte esencial de la concepción biopsicosocial que constituye hoy en día el marco predominante en el tratamiento de las conductas adictivas. Los tratamientos psicológicos de las conductas adictivas han tenido importantes avances en los últimos años, y de ahí la necesidad de disponer de un manual en español que describa la situación actual en este ámbito de intervención. Este libro nace con la idea de aportar un análisis riguroso de este tipo de problemas, basado en los datos que aporta la investigación y la práctica clínica. En esta obra, en oposición a lo que se acostumbra en este tipo de publicaciones, se ha optado por una exposición transversal, adoptando un modelo transdiagnóstico, organizando los capítulos en función de los procedimientos, y no en relación con las sustancias, como si se tratara de fenómenos esencialmente diferentes. Este manual tiene una orientación didáctica y se ha escrito pensando en los estudiantes y en los profesionales de la psicología, aunque también es útil para otros especialistas de la salud que estén interesados en este tipo de problemas. La calidad científica de los contenidos del texto está acreditada por la participación de más de cuarenta excelentes expertos, provenientes tanto del ámbito clínico como académico, que proporcionan una visión rigurosa y actual acerca de los principales procedimientos de evaluación y tratamiento de los trastornos por uso de sustancias y de otras conductas adictivas.

Download or read book Harm Reduction Psychotherapy written by Andrew Tatarsky and published by Jason Aronson. This book was released on 2007-06-10 with total page 392 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This ground-breaking volume provides readers with both an overview of harm reduction therapy and a series of ten case studies, treated by different therapists, that vividly illustrate this treatment approach with a wide variety of clients. Harm reduction is a framework for helping drug and alcohol users who cannot or will not stop completely—the majority of users—reduce the harmful consequences of use. Harm reduction accepts that abstinence may be the best outcome for many but relaxes the emphasis on abstinence as the only acceptable goal and criterion of success. Instead, smaller incremental changes in the direction of reduced harmfulness of drug use are accepted. This book will show how these simple changes in emphasis and expectation have dramatic implications for improving the effectiveness of psychotherapy in many ways. From the Foreword by Alan Marlatt, Ph.D.: “This ground-breaking volume provides readers with both an overview of harm reduction therapy and a series of ten case studies, treated by different therapists, that vividly illustrate this treatment approach with a wide variety of clients. In his introduction, Andrew Tatarsky describes harm reduction as a new paradigm for treating drug and alcohol problems. Some would say that harm reduction embraces a paradigm shift in addiction treatment, as it has moved the field beyond the traditional abstinence-only focus typically associated with the disease model and the ideology of the twelve-step approach. Others may conclude that the move toward harm reduction represents an integration of what Dr. Tatarsky describes as the “basic principles of good clinical practice” into the treatment of addictive behaviors. “Changing addiction behavior is often a complex and complicated process for both client and therapist. What seems to work best is the development of a strong therapeutic alliance, the right fit between the client and treatment provider. The role of the harm reduction therapist is closer to that of a guide, someone who can provide support an

Download or read book Choice Behavioral Economics and Addiction written by Rudolph Eugene Vuchinich and published by Elsevier. This book was released on 2003-11-13 with total page 468 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Choice, Behavioural Economics and Addiction is about the theory, data, and applied implications of choice-based models of substance use and addiction. The distinction between substance use and addiction is important, because many individuals use substances but are not also addicted to them. The behavioural economic perspective has made contributions to the analysis of both of these phenomena and, while the major focus of the book is on theories of addiction, it is necessary also to consider the behavioural economic account of substance use in order to place the theories in their proper context and provide full coverage of the contribution of behavioural economics to this field of study. The book discusses the four major theories of addiction that have been developed in the area of economic science/behavioural economics. They are: . hyperbolic discounting . melioration . relative addiction . rational addiction The main objective of the book is to popularise these ideas among addiction researchers, academics and practitioners. The specific aims are to articulate the shared and distinctive elements of these four theories, to present and discuss the latest empirical work on substance abuse and addiction that is being conducted in this area, and to articulate a range of applied implications of this body of work for clinical, public health and public policy initiatives. The book is based on an invitation-only conference entitled, Choice, Behavioural Economics and Addiction: Theory, Evidence and Applications held at the University of Alabama at Birmingham, March 30 - April 1, 2001. The conference was attended by prominent scientists and scholars, representing a range of disciplines concerned with theories of addiction and their consequences for policy and practice. The papers in the book are based on the papers given at the above conference, together with commentaries by distinguished experts and, in many cases, replies to these comments by the presenters.
