Filter by:The purpose of this study is to explore the safety, tolerability and activity of SXC-2023 when dosed for 6 weeks versus placebo in adult patients with moderate to severe Trichotillomania.
The primary purpose of the current study is to evaluate the effectiveness of providing treatment for adolescents with trichotillomania through the use of telehealth. Parent or legal guardians' psychological flexibility scores will be assessed to determine if their levels of flexibility potentially moderate treatment outcomes. The study will test the following hypotheses: Hypothesis 1: Telepsychotherapy will result in significantly better trichotillomania symptom outcomes for adolescents than a waitlist control condition. Hypothesis 2: Telepsychotherapy will result in significantly better psychological flexibility outcomes for adolescents than a waitlist control condition. Hypothesis 3: Telepsychotherapy will result in significantly better overall wellbeing outcomes for adolescents than a waitlist control condition. Hypothesis 4: Within-group changes (that include both conditions following treatment) will be significant from pre-treatment to post-treatment and will not significantly differ from post-treatment at 3, 6, and 12-month follow-up.
The goal of the proposed study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of dronabinol in trichotillomania and other body-focused repetitive behaviors such as skin-picking disorder. 50 subjects with DSM-5 trichotillomania or skin-picking disorder will receive 10 weeks of double-blind dronabinol or placebo. The hypothesis to be tested is that dronabinol will be effective and well tolerated in patients with trichotillomania and/or skin-picking disorder compared to placebo. The proposed study will provide needed data on the treatment of disabling disorders that currently lacks a clearly effective treatment.
This study will be the first randomized controlled trial of Comprehensive Behavior Modification (ComB) as a treatment of trichotillomania (TTM). ComB treatment (12 weekly sessions, following a manual developed in an earlier treatment development project) will be compared to Minimal Attention Control among adults (N = 42) with TTM.
The principal aim of this study is to establish the impact of Cognitive Training in patients with primary Hair-pulling Disorder. Half of the participants will be training with the true training intervention and the other half with the active control intervention. Study findings will also provide information on whether an internet based CT intervention, done at patients' homes, is feasible as a mode of treatment for HPD patients in SA.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effectiveness of a brief "Surf the Urge" intervention to reduce adolescent and young adult (i.e., 14 to 24 years old) urge-related behaviors. These behaviors will include, but not be limited to, substance use, deliberate self-harm, aggressive behavior, pulling out hair, and loosing control when eating.The intervention will utilize mindfulness skills (i.e., awareness, acceptance, nonjudgment) to assist in reducing these risky behaviors.
This study aims at evaluating the effectiveness of group-based cognitive behavioral therapy for trichotillomania at three clinical sites in Norway.
The goal of the proposed study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of silymarin (milk thistle) in children and adults with trichotillomania. The hypothesis to be tested is that silymarin will be more effective and well tolerated in children and adults with trichotillomania compared to placebo. The proposed study will provide needed data on the treatment of a disabling disorder that currently lacks a clearly effective treatment.
Obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD) and its related disorders (e.g., trichotillomania) are characterized by the marked difficulty in inhibiting unwanted or inappropriate responses. There is compelling evidence that poor response inhibition is a core cognitive feature of OCD and its related disorders, but no effective intervention exists that directly attempts to address this problematic cognitive deficiency. This study will examine the feasibility and clinical utility of a computerized cognitive training program designed to improve response inhibition among individuals diagnosed with OCD or trichotillomania.This training program offers systematic practice of response inhibition in the form of a 40-level computer game. Individuals with these conditions will be randomized to either 8 sessions of (a) computerized response inhibition training (RIT) or (b) placebo computer training (PLT). We hypothesize that RIT will outperform PLT in improving response inhibition capabilities and reducing relevant clinical symptoms. In sum, this project is expected to generate important knowledge to guide the development of effective computer-based treatment approaches that may help reduce critical problems of existing treatments such as suboptimal patient retention and treatment under-utilization, thereby improving overall treatment response rates among individuals suffering from OCD and related conditions.
Online study for patients with trichotillomania. 4 main hypothesis. 1. Alexithymia and Trichotillomania correlated and regression analyses find association between them 2. we will be able to find patient who have never been treated before. Those will suffer to the same amount as previously treated patients 3. Decoupling will be more helpful than progressive muscle relaxation 4. different constructs of emotion regulation will show different trait and state characteristics in patients with trichotillomania
