简要总结
The goal of the proposed study is to examine whether a single session of training in regulation of craving (ROC-T) affects alcohol drinking. The study will consist of (1) a basic screening (phone and/or online) and an in-person visit, to determine eligibility and conduct pre-intervention baseline assessments; (2) a training (ROC-T) visit, (3) a post-intervention assessment visit, and (4) 1-2 phone/online follow-up assessments.
The study will take up to 10 hours of the participants' time.
详细描述
The investigators propose to test the efficacy of such training by randomizing 120 individuals who report alcohol drinking to the following conditions: (1) a brief training in cognitive regulation and (2) a control or no-training condition. Training will be delivered in a computerized session (approximately 60 minutes). If randomized into the cognitive regulation training, subjects will be trained to use a cognitive strategy while viewing images of alcoholic drinks. The strategy would be to follow instructions to think about the adverse outcomes associated with continued alcohol drinking. If randomized into the control condition, participants will only view non-alcohol-related images with no use of strategy. After all the training sessions are completed, participants will complete several follow-ups. The investigators will evaluate the effects of training on alcohol drinking pre- and post-training.

结局指标
主要结局
Timeline followback (TLFB)
时间窗: Baseline (first visit) to post-intervention (an average of one week after first visit)
The Alcohol TLFB is a drinking assessment method that obtains estimates of daily drinking.
次要结局
- Frequency of regulating drinking + craving.(Will be measured at post-intervention (one week after first visit))
- Timeline followback (TLFB)(First visit, post-intervention (one week after first visit), follow-up (two weeks after first visit))
