NCT ID: NCT06044363 Completed - Clinical trials for Mental Health Wellness 1

Satir Model for Self-esteem, Mental Health, and Family Function Among Individuals With Substance Use Disorders

Start date: September 1, 2023
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Self-esteem and family functioning are associated with mental health and success of drug treatment among individuals with substance use disorders (SUD). The Satir model aims to empower individuals to explore their internal resources, address emotional issues, shift coping strategies, enhancing self-esteem, and develop healthier ways of relating to themselves and others. It offers a range of techniques to enhance self-esteem, challenging negative belief systems, and promote personal growth. The aim of the study is to investigate the acceptability and preliminary efficacy of the Satir model on self-esteem, mental health, and family function among individuals with SUD in China. The study will adopt a mixed-method approach. The quantitative phase will employ a randomized control trial (RCT) utilizing a pre-post study design. The qualitative phase will involve conducting semi-structured individual interviews.The data will be analyzed by using SPSS software package (IBM SPSS statistics version 26.0). The individual-interview will be analyzed by using the six-phase thematic analysis. The study has the potential to advance knowledge in the field of drug rehabilitation interventions, inform evidence-based practice, and improve the wellbeing and outcomes of individual with SUD. It can contribute to the ongoing efforts to address the complex challenges associated with substance use and support individual on their trajectory to recovery.

NCT ID: NCT02318745 Completed - Depression Clinical Trials

Preventing Health Disparities in Hispanic Youth

CIFFTA-P
Start date: June 2007
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

This study seeks to investigate the efficacy and mechanisms of a highly promising "Culturally Informed Family Therapy for Adolescents" in preventing the emergence of two important health disparities in Hispanic youth, namely drug use & HIV and other sexually transmitted infections (STI). The proposed study is submitted as part of a P60 application entitled "NCMHD Center for Culturally-Tailored Hispanic Health Disparities Research (El Centro)", in response to the NIH RFA-MD-06-002: Establishing Comprehensive NCMHD Research Centers of Excellence. This study investigates: 1) the efficacy of the treatment in reducing existing psychiatric, behavioral and family problems in youth, and 2) the indicated prevention effects of the intervention on the emergence of drug use and HIV/STI 20 months after baseline. There is a substantial literature linking disruptive behaviors (i.e., conduct disorder and attention deficit hyperactivity disorder) and mood instability (i.e., depressive disorders) and family conflict to the development of the Hispanic health disparities of drug use and HIV/STI. Conduct disorder (CD), attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) and depressive disorders (DD) will be targets of treatment, as will be the family risk factors (e.g., poor parenting, family conflict) and acculturation-related stressors, all of which have been shown to place youth on a destructive trajectory toward deteriorating health.

Culturally Informed Family Based Treatment of Adolescents: A Randomized Trial

CIFFTA
Start date: January 2011
Phase: Phase 2
Study type: Interventional

This Stage II randomized trial tests Culturally Informed & Flexible Family Based Treatment for Adolescents (CIFFTA) developed as part of a Stage I treatment development effort and yielding promising preliminary findings. Drug use rates are highest among Hispanic middle school youth and to date no treatments have met criteria for "Well Established" in the treatment of substance abuse in Hispanic adolescents. Further treatment for Hispanic youth and families is complicated by the fact that these families often differ from mainstream populations in culture-related values, beliefs and behaviors that can directly impact engagement, retention, and efficacy/effectiveness of drug treatment. Our efforts to develop a more powerful treatment capable of addressing these issues began with a Stage 1 study that led to the development of a multi-component treatment that includes a flexible manual that allows treatment tailoring to the unique characteristics of individual families. CIFFTA integrates innovative culturally-based, individually-based, and family-based components to: 1) reduce maladaptive family processes (e.g., poor parenting practices, family conflict) and increase family protective factors (e.g., strong parent-child attachment), 2) teach adolescents skills to effectively manage interpersonal conflicts and stressors and to increase motivation to change, 3) deliver psycho-educational and culturally congruent material (e.g., modules on immigration stressors) to youth and parents both separately and together, and 4) deliver the intervention using a flexible treatment manual that allows the clinician to tailor the treatment (e.g., by selecting the most relevant psycho-educational modules and themes) to the unique characteristics and needs of the Hispanic family. This Stage II randomized trial randomizes 220 Hispanic adolescents ages 14-17 who meet DSM-IV criteria for Substance Abuse to a 4-month treatment of either CIFFTA or Traditional Family Therapy. The study tests CIFFTA's efficacy in impacting drug use, risky sexual behavior, and other severe behavior problems, and hypothesized mechanisms of change, in a larger and more rigorous Stage II trial. Assessments occur at baseline, 4 months post baseline (end of treatment), 10 months post baseline and 16 months post baseline. Should this line of research continue to be successful, it has the potential to contribute to the field a highly innovative and efficacious treatment for Hispanic drug abusing adolescents, a better understanding of mechanisms of treatment efficacy, and also a framework for future flexible and tailored treatments that can be used to better address the unique needs of other special populations.
