Empirically supported interventions in psychological disorders should provide (1) evidence supporting the underlying psychological mechanisms of psychopathology to target in the intervention and (2) evidence supporting the efficacy of the intervention. However, research has been dedicated in a greater extent to efficacy than to the acquisition of empirical support for the theoretical basis of therapies. Research Domain Criteria (RDoC) emerges as a new framework to provide empirically based theories about psychological mechanisms that may be targeted in intervention and tested for its efficacy. The current review aims to demonstrate the possible applications of RDoC to design empirically supported interventions for psychological disorders. Two RDoC-inspired interventions are reviewed, and the RDoC framework is broadly explored in terms of its contributions and limitations. From preliminary evidence, RDoC offers many avenues for improving evidence-based interventions in psychology, but some limitations must be anticipated to increase the RDoC applicability to naturalistic settings.
在心理障碍方面，基于实证的干预措施应提供：（1）支持将精神病理学潜在心理机制作为干预目标的证据，以及（2）支持干预措施有效性的证据。然而，相较于为疗法的理论基础获取实证支持，研究在更大程度上致力于干预措施的有效性。研究领域标准（RDoC）作为一个新框架应运而生，旨在提供基于实证的关于心理机制的理论，这些心理机制可作为干预目标并对其有效性进行测试。本综述旨在展示RDoC在设计针对心理障碍的基于实证的干预措施方面的可能应用。我们回顾了两项受RDoC启发的干预措施，并从其贡献和局限性方面对RDoC框架进行了广泛探讨。从初步证据来看，RDoC为改善心理学中基于证据的干预措施提供了许多途径，但必须预见到一些局限性，以提高RDoC在自然环境中的适用性。
