“…Being based, at least in part, on their concerns, expertise, knowledge, and day-to-day experience, POR not only allows for clinicians to contribute to the accumulation of knowledge but also to have a voice in setting an agenda for current and future research (Zarin, Pincus, West, & McIntyre, 1997). Because clinical practice is populated by therapists of different orientations (and blends of orientations), such a research agenda will by definition reflect and contribute to the advancement of psychotherapy integration.…”

Integration has become an important and influential movement within psychotherapy practice, reflected by the fact that many treatment providers now identify as integrative. However, integration has not had as great an influence on psychotherapy research. The goal of this paper is to highlight the growing body of research on psychotherapy integration, and to identify future directions for research that may strengthen the integration movement as well as the field of psychotherapy as a whole. We first summarize the past 25 years of research on integration, with a focus on four approaches to integration: theoretical integration, technical eclectic, common factors, and assimilative integration. Next, we identify directions of research within these four areas that could strengthen and support integrative practice. We then propose ways in which the perspective of integrationists could contribute to psychotherapy research in the critical areas of harmful effects, therapist effects, practice-oriented research, and training. We end this paper by suggesting that a greater collaboration between integrationists and psychotherapy researchers will help to create a unified landscape of knowledge and action that will benefit all participants and advance the field.

“…Networks that attempt to capture client data face additional challenges. At times, busy practitioners with no or little research training are asked to report data collected from their clients, introducing additional validity concerns (Zarin et al 1997). PBRNs may ask clinicians to institute specific measurement systems into their practice, but should recognize that the literature is full of warnings that these systems need to be clinician friendly, clinically relevant, and compatible with practice preferences to get clinicians to adhere to their use and yield valid data (Clothier 2005; Genel and Dobs 2003; Kho et al 2007; LeBailey et al 2003; Lindbloom et al 2004; Van Weel et al 2000).…”

Practice-based research networks (PBRNs)—collaborations of practice settings that work together to generate research knowledge—are underused in mental health services research. This article proposes an agenda for mental health services research that uses a variety of PBRN structures and that focuses on what really happens in practice, the effectiveness of practice innovations in real world care, the challenges of implementing evidence supported interventions, modification of clinician behavior, and assessment of the effect of mental health policy changes on practice. The challenges of conducting research within PBRNs are substantial, including difficulties in maintaining positive member relations, securing ongoing funding, sustaining productivity, overcoming IRB entanglements and achieving both scientific excellence in recruitment and measurement validity and utility for practitioner members. However, the awareness of these challenges allows researchers and practitioners to build networks that creatively overcome them and that infuse mental health services research with heavy doses of the realities of everyday clinical practice.

“…Este modelo no busca que los investigadores hagan estudios que les interesen a los clínicos, ni que los clínicos hagan investigación por su cuenta, sino que fomenta una sinergia entre clínicos e investigadores, en un proceso de enriquecimiento mutuo. De esta manera, se busca que las piezas de información recabadas, sirvan tanto a los fines de la investigación como a fines terapéuticos, y que tanto los clínicos como los académicos participen de las decisiones metodológicas y procedimentales para la realización de los proyectos (Pincus, 1997). Durante este proceso, las perspectivas e ideas de cada una de las partes se ven mutuamente enriquecidas, ya que puede permitir que cada uno de los interlocutores piense por fuera de sus marcos clásicos.…”

El objetivo del presente trabajo es exponer y evaluar las experiencias involucradas en el desarrollo de un dispositivo de Investigación Orientada por la práctica, con el fin de crear un recurso que sirva tanto para la clínica como para la investigación. Un equipo interdisciplinario conformado por directivos de una clínica, terapeutas e investigadores diseñó en conjunto un dispositivo de monitoreo de resultados y feedback para terapeutas, que permite recabar datos periódicos del estado de los pacientes y brindar información a los terapeutas sobre su evolución. El Sistema de Evaluación de Tratamientos (SET) está conformado por cinco preguntas orientadas a evaluar procesos de evolución general del paciente. El SET cuenta con sistemas de alertas que adviertan al terapeuta, mediante un procedimiento sencillo, respecto de situaciones que podrían ser importantes para repensar el tratamiento de los pacientes. Este sistema de alarmas incluye: Alertas para supervisar, alerta para implementar maniobras de cierre y alerta para dar el alta a los pacientes. En este artículo se evalúa el proceso de trabajo interactivo entre clínicos e investigadores y su resultado, en términos de las fortalezas y debilidades del dispositivo clínico desarrollado, tanto para captación de datos, con fines clínicos y de investigación, así como también en aspectos relacionados con la sustentabilidad en el tiempo de dicho dispositivo. Finalmente, se discute el valor de un trabajo integral entre estos actores y se plantean obstáculos observados a lo largo del proceso y soluciones tentativas para los mismos.
