A Remotely Delivered Episodic Future Thinking Intervention to Improve Management of Type 2 Diabetes
In Brief
A Phase 2 clinical trial evaluating Episodic future thinking and Control Thinking for Type 2 Diabetes. Completed, enrolled 59 participants across 1 site.
Detailed Summary
The goals of this project are to assess the efficacy of remotely delivered episodic future thinking for reducing delay discounting and improving management of type 2 diabetes, including glycemic control, weight loss, medication adherence, dietary intake, physical activity, and blood pressure. This will be accomplished by randomly assigning participants (N = 64) to episodic future thinking or control thinking groups, while tracking outcome measures before, during, and after the 4-month intervention, as well at a 6-month follow-up visit. Participants in both groups will also receive access to an information-based weight loss intervention.
