Testing the Efficacy of a CBT-enhanced Text Message Intervention to Reduce Symptom Burden in Individuals With Post-traumatic Stress Disorder Symptoms and Co-occurring Hazardous Drinking

University of Washington·interventional·Posted May 12, 2022·Updated Jun 26, 2025

In Brief

A clinical study evaluating CBT Text Messages for Posttraumatic Stress Disorder and Alcohol Use. Completed, enrolled 505 participants across 1 site.

Detailed Summary

The research study seeks to refine and test a brief, self-directed, intervention for individuals from the general public with PTSD and co-occurring HD that can be delivered via text-messaging. This application seeks to refine the intervention further by testing whether theoretically-driven, evidence-based strategies from basic cognitive psychology (message framing) and social psychology (facilitating growth mindsets) result in better outcomes for PTSD symptoms and HD by addressing pilot participant feedback related to avoidance and motivation.
