Developing a Brief Early Cognitive Intervention for PTSD and Alcohol Misuse
In Brief
A clinical study evaluating Brief Cognitive Therapy for Posttraumatic Stress Disorder and Alcohol Use Disorders. Completed, enrolled 57 participants across 1 site.
Detailed Summary
The broad aim of this study is to develop and test a brief intervention that can be implemented in the immediate weeks following sexual assault to decrease likelihood of developing posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) or alcohol misuse. The first phase of the study will enroll 6 women to complete a brief, cognitive therapy protocol and provide feedback on the intervention (open trial). The second phase of the study will recruit 76 women to complete either the intervention (38 women) or assessment only (38 women) to test the effects of the intervention on both PTSD symptoms and alcohol use behavior as compared to natural recovery following assault.
