Interventions

CBTbehavioral

The CBT treatment developed by Ladouceur (Consultant) will serve as control condition (outline of published treatment manual by Ladouceur \& Lachance, 2006. This treatment served as a model for the cognitive-behavioral component in CMBT and has received empirical support in two studies from Ladouceur's lab (Sylvain et al., 1997; Ladouceur et al., 2004). It places strong emphasis on cognitive correction of erroneous beliefs about gambling and also focuses on coping skills training and relapse prevention. CBT also lasts 12 weekly sessions.

CMBTbehavioral

We used the NIMH-funded R21 mechanism to develop and test the CMBT intervention (Wulfert et al., 2003, 2005; 2006). Treatment will be implemented in 12 weekly sessions (3 motivational enhancement sessions, 8 sessions of cognitive-behavioral treatment, 1 session of relapse prevention)
