An exciting opportunity exists for an exceptional candidate who is interested in undertaking a PhD project in the field of implementation science, within the Implementing work-related Mental health guidelines in general PRacticE (IMPRovE) NHMRC Partnership Trial.

Located within the Department of General Practice at Monash University, IMPRovE will implement the recently published Clinical practice guidelines for the diagnosis and management of work-related mental health conditions through a pragmatic cluster randomised controlled trial. Our key objectives are to increase the delivery of evidence-based general practice care for patients, assess the cost-effectiveness of our intervention and plan for national scale up. Components of the intervention will include academic detailing, peer-to-peer support and learning through a digital Community of Practice and the provision of resources.

The PhD project attached to this scholarship will focus on using implementation science theory and methods to contribute to a process evaluation of the IMPRovE trial. Supported by a large interdisciplinary team of investigators, and policy and practice partners, the PhD candidate will characterise the aspects of the intervention and our partnership approach that are likely to lead to successful change in GP practice, and to characterise aspects that may hinder success. This will involve initially undertaking a systematic review to identify the elements of a successful digital Community of Practice. Then, the focus will move towards evaluating the successful and unsuccessful components of the intervention as part of the process evaluation of the trial.

Project Title

How do Heavy Drinkers Make Enduring Changes to Their Drinking Behaviour after Taking Part in "Dry January"?

Description

‘Dry January’ and other campaigns in which people attempt to abstain from alcohol for a month are increasingly popular. Temporary abstinence from alcohol combined with remote support may help heavy drinkers to reduce their alcohol consumption in the longer-term. However, we know very little about the psychological and social mechanisms through which people change their drinking behaviour.

This mixed-methods PhD project will directly address this important evidence gap. The candidate will conduct prospective observational studies that will recruit people who attempt a ‘Dry January’ or temporary abstinence at another time of year and ask them about the ways in which they attempt to change their behaviour and their social activities, the psychological changes that they experience, and their drinking behaviour several months later.

They will also conduct semi-structured interviews with people who have attempted to temporarily abstain from alcohol, and ethnographic studies of postings on Dry January forums and other online forums. 

The University of Sheffield, in partnership with Alcohol Change UK, is pleased to offer this fully-funded PhD Studentship as part of the ESRC White Rose Doctoral Training Partnership.

Project Description

The project seeks to understand how family, neighbourhood environment and family social and economic circumstances interact with individual characteristics such as sex, personality and temperament to shape mental health, health behaviours and educational outcomes at the end of secondary schooling and the cusp of adulthood.

We ask three interlinked questions:

  1. “how do peer relationships and exposure to social media influence the risk of developing anxiety and depression?”;
  2. “how do family, neighbourhood and individual characteristics shape the development of health behaviours such as diet, exercise, smoking and alcohol consumption?”;
  3. “did the financial crisis and recession experienced in Ireland between 2008 and 2014 influence educational outcomes at the end of secondary school and if so, how?”

National Chapters Regional Coordinator

Shared by Livia - 4 February 2020
Job deadline
1 mars 2020
Country
Royaume-Uni

The International Society of Substance Use Professionals (ISSUP) is excited to add two National Chapters Regional Coordinators to our small team to support and expand the National Chapter development in Africa and Asia.

ISSUP is a not-for-profit, non-governmental organisation that supports the professional development of a globally connected substance use prevention, treatment and recovery workforce. ISSUP provides networking opportunities, offers a gateway to training and serves as an online access point for information from the field of drug demand reduction. ISSUP’s approach is informed by evidence-based, high-quality and ethical practice.

A major part of ISSUP’s operation is to establish, monitor and support the development and activity of its National Chapters (https://www.issup.net/national-chapters).

At the end of February 2020 ISSUP will have 18 established National Chapters and 6 in the process of becoming established. The National Chapters operation is currently undertaken on a regional basis with four regions: Africa, Asia, Latin America, and Europe and the Middle East

As this extremely important aspect of ISSUP’s work progresses it is essential that the National Chapters are appropriately managed, monitored and supported. Their work is accountable to ISSUP Global and it is essential that there is regular communication to help the National Chapters to operate as effectively and efficiently as possible to achieve their objectives of promoting ISSUP’s mission at the national level.

The support of individual National Chapters will include fostering dialogue and positive relationships with other key organisations operating in the drug demand reduction field in the National Chapter countries and region. This will include building relationships with governments and relevant international and national organisations to encourage their awareness and support.

ISSUP seeks to employ 2 Regional Coordinators: one for the African and one for the Asian National Chapter regions

The responsibility of those appointed will involve:

- Working as a member of the ISSUP National Chapter (NC) Coordination team

- Having specific responsibility for their region - Africa or Asia

  • Regular communication with each of the Chapters individually and as a group
  • Ensuring that National Chapters in the region are monitored and that they report on their governance and activities undertaken as ISSUP branded National Chapters
  • Monitoring and reporting on activity of each National Chapter in their region
  • Help in the preparation and review of annual work plans
  • Supporting and encouraging the activities of the National Chapters in their region
  • Building relationships with key stakeholders, including government within each National Chapter country
  • Offering advice and encouragement for the operation of the National Chapters in their region and providing practical input where relevant and appropriate
  • Identifying potential new National Chapters in the region and undertaking the relevant processes for their potential development as an ISSUP National Chapter
  • Ensuring the quality of the National Chapters activities as an ISSUP branded operation
  • Support and monitoring of national and regional events undertaken by the National Chapters
  • Oversight and actions to encourage regional meetings/events for the National Chapters in their region to allow face-to-face meetings of the National Chapters

- Input to the overall operation and development of National Chapters as a key area of ISSUP Global’s work.

The post may involve international travel although the majority of the work and communication between the ISSUP coordination team and with the National Chapters in their region will be undertaken virtually.

Consultancy position initially 6 months to be reviewed after 6 months to ascertain acceptable performance in the role.

ISSUP Global’s operation is primarily operated by UK based staff. However, we want National Chapters to identify as part of the ISSUP family and to encourage the awareness that ISSUP is a major and unique international organisation. ISSUP therefore encourages applicants that are based in the UK or in the regions where the Regional Coordination will take place i.e. Africa and Asia.

Skills and Qualities: 

We welcome applications from any individual who consider themselves to be…

  • Creative
  • Enthusiastic
  • Innovative
  • Flexible
  • Friendly
  • Conscientious

And has the following skills and qualifications:

Essential: 

  • 2-3 years’ experience of working in in the NGO/charity or health care sector
  • Excellent written and verbal skills and the ability to adapt to dealing with different types of stakeholders
  • Able to organise ISSUP’s National Chapters for input to social media and website content
  • Be able to build good relationships with health and social care professionals, governmental officials, policy makers, researchers NGO representatives and others involved in drug demand reduction
  • English speaking (native or CEFR C2)
  • Excellent working knowledge of Microsoft Office and social media platforms
  • Show and use initiative
  • Strong attention to detail and problem-solving skills
  • Ability to plan, organise and prioritise your own work
  • Team-player: Able to communicate and integrate within a small team
  • Ability to work independently and self-motivated

Desirable: 

  • Some knowledge of substance use prevention, treatment and recovery support, or related healthcare fields will be an advantage but not essential
  • Be experienced in working with health and social care professionals, governmental officials, policy makers, researchers NGO representatives and others involved in drug demand reduction
  • Additional language proficiency is a plus
  • Experience working within a membership organisation
  • Event planning experience

Salary range: up to £23,000 ($30,000) p.a. dependent upon experience

Contract length: 6 months

Similarly, many heavy drinkers are able to ‘cut down’ their alcohol consumption, sometimes without help and often in response to life changes. There is some preliminary evidence that both types of recovery / behaviour change are accompanied by important psychological changes such that involve executive functions, automatic cognitive processing biases, and subjective beliefs about alcohol. These observations raise a number of additional questions, answers to which could contribute important information about the process of behaviour change and how treatments might be optimized in order to bring about those psychological changes. For example, which psychological processes (if any) play the most important causal role in behaviour change, and which arise as a consequence of behaviour change? How do addiction treatments and behaviour change interventions influence these psychological constructs, and how might those interventions need to be modified in the future? This research would involve a series of cross-sectional and longitudinal investigations of people who have yet to change their behaviour, people who are currently attempting to change, and people who have successfully changed their behaviour or recovered from addiction. It may also involve work to build on and clarify the observations from these studies, such as experimental field studies, or development and preliminary evaluation of novel interventions.
