简要总结
This study involves a randomized controlled trial of Fathers for Change (F4C) compared to Individual Drug Counseling (IDC) with a sample of 280 fathers enrolled in substance use (SU) treatment within community or veterans (VA) healthcare settings to (a) demonstrate F4C efficacy compared to IDC in reducing SU and family violence (FV) at end of treatment, 3- and 6-month post-treatment follow-up, and (b) document improved emotion regulation as the mechanism within F4C that results in reduced SU and FV.

结局指标
主要结局
Substance Misuse
时间窗: Baseline (week 0), weekly during treatment for through 18 week, Post-Treatment at week 19, week 32 and week 45
Self-reported days of substance misuse reported a positive breathalyzer/urine tox screen will be used to create a sum of the number of weeks with use during treatment and at each follow-up period.
Family Violence (FV)
时间窗: Baseline (week 0), weekly during treatment for through 18 week, Post-Treatment at week 19, week 32 and week 45
Any instance of FV either toward a partner or child identified by any report (self-report on the Timeline Followback weekly surveys, child protection or arrest record) will be counted to allow for the best estimate of FV across reports resulting in a sum count of the number of FV incidents during the 18 weeks of treatment and from post-treatment to each follow-up timepoint
次要结局
- Emotion Dysregulation(Baseline (week 0), Post-Treatment at week 19, week 32 and week 45)
