简要总结
The purpose of this pilot randomized clinical trial is to test the feasibility and efficacy of written exposure therapy (WET) for posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) within the context of residential substance use disorder (SUD) treatment. All participants meet criteria for PTSD and are in a short term residential SUD treatment program (target residential treatment duration = 28 days) regardless of the research. The main questions the study aims to answer are: 1) Is the delivery of WET feasible in short term residential SUD treatment for individuals with severe SUD; 2) Do participants in the TAU+WET condition have greater reductions in PTSD symptoms pre/post treatment compared to participants in TAU alone?

结局指标
主要结局
Efficacy of WET
时间窗: Pre/post intervention window (approximately 3 weeks)
PTSD symptom reduction pre/post intervention by treatment arm as measured by the posttraumatic checklist for DSM-5 (PCL-5). The PCL-5 is a self-report questionnaire yielding scores ranging from 0-80 with higher scores indicating greater symptomology.
次要结局
- Feasibility of WET delivered in residential SUD treatment context(Up to 4 weeks, or until the participant discharges from residential treatment (whichever comes first).)
- Acceptability of WET delivered in residential SUD treatment context(Collected post intervention window (approximately 3 weeks from randomization))
