Belinda Borrelli is a Professor of Psychiatry and Director of the Program in Nicotine and Tobacco Research. She develops and tests treatments to motivate change in a variety of health behaviors (smoking cessation, medication adherence, oral health, sleep apnea, asthma) in many populations (disabled, latinos, urban teens, older adults, native americans). She is interested in 1) increasing risk perception through health feedback and 2) working with culturally diverse and special populations.

Research Description

My research program involves developing theory-based health behavior interventions to proactively reach those who would not spontaneously seek, or have access to treatment. I believe that population-based health behavior change can occur by targeting 4 areas: 1) developing new channels to proactively reach those who are most at risk; 2) developing new methods of intervention; particularly tailored to those who are not motivated to change, 3) attention to both treatment outcomes and theoretical mechanisms of change, and 4) institutionalization of effective interventions.

My research also involves cultural adaptation of evidenced based interventions. I have developed a model that outlines the criteria and methods for developing and testing interventions with special populations. This is published in the Journal of Consulting and Clinical Psychology, 2010.

One of my primary areas of research is to motivate smoking cessation among medical populations through Motivational Enhancement methods (e.g., Motivational Interviewing) and augmentation of risk perception through biomarker feedback. I have conducted a series of studies involving motivating smoking cessation and second hand smoke reduction among caregivers of children with asthma. These interventions captilize on a teachable moment (e.g., recent visit to the emergency room) using biomarker feedback to increase perception of risk. This series of interventions was culturally adapted for Latino smokers, and shown to have efficacy in this population.

My most recent research involves using Behavioral Activation to motivate smoking cessation in smokers with mobility impairments. The first phase of this project involves using both qualitative and quantitative methods, as well as community based participatory research, to develop a series of theory-based videos to motivate smoking cessation and increase empowerment. The second phase of this research involved testing these videos in a randomized controlled trial to determine whether or not they are effective in promoting smoking cessation in this population.

I have extrapolated my treatment models to health domains outside of smoking, including colon cancer screening, oral health, asthma, medication adherence, Continuous Positive Airway Pressure (CPAP) adherence, depression, obesity, diet, exercise, and diabetes. I have also applied motivational interviewing and health behavior change methods to diverse populations (Disabled, Native Americans, Latinos, Inner city, older adults, pediatrics, adolescents).

A separate line of study involves developing and publishing guidelines on treatment fidelity of health behavior change studies. I co-chaired on NIH committee on treatment fidelity in order to develop these guidelines. These guidelines are viewed as supplementary to CONSORT for behavioral health interventions and are published in Health Psychology and the Journal of Consulting and Clinical Psychology, the latter includes an assessment tool for researchers on treatment fidelity. These guidelines have been updated in an invited article (B. Borrelli, 2011, American Journal of Preventive Dentistry).

Teaching Experience

Dr. Borrelli has trained hundreds of physicians, nurses, medical residents, medical students, and psychology interns in motivational interviewing techniques for health behavior change, including smoking cessation, medication adherence, asthma, adherence to diabetic regimens, and physical activity. She also widely lecture at national medical conferences on technique of motivating health behavior change for a wide variety of medical disciplines (e.g., stroke, cardiovascular, asthma & allergy). She has trained all nurses at both The Miriam Hospital and RI Hospital to implement best practice guidelines for smoking cessation counseling. She developed a pocket guide and educational curriculum for nurses. She provides ongoing teaching and mentorship to psychology interns, post-doctoral fellows and junior faculty on research methods, manuscript writing, and grant writing. She was recently invited by the Texas Board of Higher Education to review a proposed Psychology PhD program at the University of Texas, San Antonio.
