Delay Discounting as a Target for Self-Regulation in Prediabetes

State University of New York at Buffalo·interventional·Posted Sep 13, 2018·Updated Dec 9, 2022

In Brief

A clinical study evaluating Episodic Future Thinking and Daily Check in for PreDiabetes. Completed, enrolled 64 participants across 2 sites.

Detailed Summary

The goals of the UH3 are to assess the effectiveness of adding Episodic Future Thinking (EFT) to the investigators standard behavioral weight control program to improve weight loss, delay discounting (DD), working memory, glycemic control (HbA1c) and behavioral medication adherence over a 6 month period in persons with prediabetes and comorbid hypertension and/or hyperlipidemia. This will be accomplished by a randomized trial (N = 71 randomized) comparing the effects of EFT versus control that matches attention and use of technology.

Interventions

Episodic Future Thinkingbehavioral

Participants will practice using these cues when making decisions about health choices. Participants will implement EFT while using The Traffic Light Diet, The Traffic Light Activity Program, and a variety of behavioral techniques including stimulus control, self-monitoring, goal setting, problem solving, resetting rewarding mechanisms by reducing need for immediate gratification, finding behavioral substitutes for highly reinforcing food.

Daily Check inbehavioral

Participants will be asked to access the electronic app at the same rate as the experimental group (e.g. daily). Participants will receive behavioral weight loss treatment including The Traffic Light Diet, The Traffic Light Activity Program, and a variety of behavioral techniques including stimulus control, self-monitoring, goal setting, problem solving, and finding behavioral substitutes for highly reinforcing food.
