Primary Means

In this study, the pervasive influence of television (video) and the use of behavioral techniques are combined to demonstrate the viability of video therapy as a primary means of therapeutic intervention. Specially edited videotapes were designed to shape the correct grammatical and contextual use of language in a mentally retarded/schizophrenic, adolescent girl. Techniques used were self-modeling, structured rehearsal, projective rehearsal, and systematic positive reinforcement. Results from this study demonstrate the efficacy of this treatment modality.

New Treatment

Cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT) with Comprehensive Behavioral Intervention for Tics (CBIT) is an efficacious treatment for Tourette Syndrome (TS), with a manualized version available for guiding practitioners through treatment. However, CBIT is still a fairly new treatment for TS and rigorous training in its application is sparse. Additionally, potential treatment considerations are not thoroughly described in the manual. This dissertation presents a systematic case study that specifically analyzes the use of the manual with 10-year-old "Hiro," a South Asian Indian boy with TS who also had attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), which is a confounding factor in the treatment of TS. To do this meant applying flexibility and an "hypothesizing-then-testing" mentality. The creation of an individualized case formulation and an associated treatment plan for Hiro were very valuable components in his treatment. The case study chronicles Hiro's successful treatment and explores how and when adherence to the manual was effective as well as how and when greater flexibility was required. Furthermore, the case study explores factors in the clinician/client relationship and how that relationship can prove a powerful tool in treatment. Options for how to maintain treatment goals after termination are also examined.

Bridging Research And Practice

Community-based participatory research (CBPR), as a research paradigm emphasizing principles of participation, action, and empowerment, has been widely applied in public health areas to address health needs of local communities and reduce health disparities across ethnic, geographic, socioeconomic, and cultural groups. In this chapter, we briefly introduce the core concepts and main components of the CBPR approach, review its theoretical roots, and highlight its significance in connecting academic scholars and local partners and bridging research and practice. We illustrate the concepts through an adapted CBPR theoretical model with a focus on 4 dimensions—contexts, group dynamics, intervention, and outcomes—considered in developing and implementing a CBPR intervention project. We conclude with a case study of a behavioral intervention project in China to demonstrate how to apply CBPR principles in the context of global health and make several recommendations based on experiences gained from this and other projects.
