Subject: Extended Deadline: APF Walter Katkovsky Research Grants
To:
Up to $20,000 APF Walter Katkovsky Research Grants on the general topic of combining psychotherapy with a psychoactive substance that may be an over-the-counter or other legal substance or a prescription medication, where the substance is an adjunct to the psychotherapy and not the primary intervention. Although determining the effectiveness of the psychoactive substance, whether it consists of a prescribed medication or other psychoactive substance and its dosage may be intrinsic to the research, the hypotheses to be tested in the research should not be on the psychoactive substance per se but rather on conditions that may be associated with decisions to introduce or discontinue the substance in the treatment plan and with the outcomes of combining these treatments.
Examples include but are not limited to the following:
- Individual differences in patient variables that may favor or contraindicate combining psychotherapy and a psychoactive substance.
- In-therapy variations in goals, structure, methods, theoretical orientation, therapist/patient interactions, and expected frequency and duration of meetings as they affect the appropriateness of combined treatments;
- Research to establish recommendations on process variables on how best to introduce alternatives that may include changing or discontinuing a medication or another psychoactive substance;
- Since the primary intervention in the proposal should be psychotherapy, and the intent of the Fund is not to test the effectiveness of prescription medications, a proposal that includes a comparison condition of a prescription medication without psychotherapy will not be funded. In contrast, a proposal involving a non-prescription substance may include a psychoactive substance alone vs. psychotherapy alone and/or a combined condition.
The proposal must describe in detail the experimental methodology (i.e., hypotheses, subject selection, and measures of independent and dependent variables, including a description of the psychotherapy that must deal with life problems and emotional/behavioral reactions) and result in the collection of new data.
Three $20,000 grants and three $10,000 grants are available.
This grant is open to psychologists with up to 12 years of post-doctoral experience.
The deadline for proposals is January 1, 2019.
