Filter by:The purpose of this study is to test the feasibility of writing interventions specifically designed for lesbian, gay, and bisexual (LGB) emerging adults (ages 18-29) that are aimed at improving the outcomes: depression, suicidality, substance abuse and HIV risk behaviors.
A small pilot randomized controlled trial (RCT) will be conducted to test the impact of an electronic screening and brief intervention (e-SBI) on reduction in substance use (measured via self-report), associated symptoms (depression and parenting stress), and improvement in home visiting retention and substance use treatment engagement. While a pilot RCT was originally planned, the study experienced significant delays and recruitment challenges due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Therefore, after review by the DSMB and study sponsor, the decision was made to eliminate the randomization and assign all participants to the intervention condition to evaluate feasibility and acceptability of the intervention.
National data show that only 8% of people with past-year substance use disorders (SUD) received any treatment for these disorders in the past year, resulting in high costs, both in terms of their own health and functioning and costs to society. Pilot work demonstrates that the proposed intervention has the potential to significantly increase SUD treatment engagement among patients with SUD within Federally Qualified Health Centers (FQHCs), and thereby reduce substance use and other related consequences. This project is being done in close collaboration with several FQHC providers to facilitate the potential for subsequent dissemination to other FQHCs and primary care settings.
This project will provide initial feasibility and efficacy data for the implementation of Narrative Exposure Therapy (NET) to urban, at-risk youth. Posttraumatic stress and substance use outcomes, as well as participant responses to the intervention, will be examined.
This study recruits pregnant women and new mothers who are at risk of substance use concerns during pregnancy or delivery. These women are followed for 6 months and randomized into two groups; they may receive services as usual, or enhanced services. Enhanced services include evidence based interventions and case management to support referrals to substance abuse treatment, and to teach strategies specifically targeted to parenting newborns.
The overall objective of this project is to adapt and enhance HoMBReS (Hispanic Men Building Respect, Education, and Safety within Families /Hombres Manteniendo Respeto, Educacion y Seguridad de Familia), a Center for Disease Control (CDC)-identified best-evidence HIV behavioral intervention designed to reduce substance abuse, family violence, and HIV/AIDS (SAVA) among sexually active heterosexual Latino seasonal farmworkers (LSFWs) in rural areas.
The purpose of this study is to test the usefulness of a computer-assisted intervention for depressed cannabis users by combining peer and therapist social network support via Facebook that uses the techniques of cognitive behavioral therapy and motivational enhancement therapy (CBT/MET) to help with relapse prevention skills, reduce cannabis use and depressive symptoms, and improve treatment adherence. All participants will receive 10 weeks of the computer assisted intervention which includes weekly 60 minute (1 hour) sessions. All participants will also be part of a secret Facebook group (CONNECT). The goal of this secret Facebook group is to reinforce the knowledge and skills taught in the computer assisted intervention and to provide social support.
Behavior drug and risk reduction counseling (BDRC), a structured, non-intense, cognitive-behavioral approach intervention designed to increase methadone maintenance treatment retention and reduce drug use and related risk behaviors among IDUs.
The purpose of this research study is to determine the usefulness of the TIPS iPad app in the treatment of adolescent patients who qualify for Trauma Focused-Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (TF-CBT).
This was a single-site two-arm parallel-group trial conducted in a Methadone Maintenance Treatment (MMT) Clinic that provides medication service for 254 heroin users in Wuhan, China. Once consented and completed the pre-treatment assessment, participants were randomized to receive either the Chinese translated behavioral activation treatment for substance use (C-BA) or treatment as usual (TAU). Research assessments occurred at pre-treatment, post-treatment, and 1- and 3-months follow-ups. The primary purpose of this study is to: 1. Evaluate the feasibility, acceptability, and efficacy of the Chinese-translated behavioral activation treatment for substance use (C-BA), an evidence based intervention developed to address the individual and psychological needs of Chinese substance users. The secondary purpose of this study is to: Examine the underlying mechanism of C-BA by studying the relationship between change in substance use related outcomes and associated psychological constructs (e.g. levels of behavioral activation and depression).
