IATP2 Trial Design

3Treatment groups
Experimental Treatment
Active Control
Group I: Individualized Assess & Treatment (IATP)Experimental Treatment1 Intervention
Intervention: Cognitive-Behavioral IATP consists of 12 weekly visits of individual treatment. IATP employs cellphone-based experience sampling via interactive voice response (IVR) to assess drinking, plus craving, thoughts, feelings, and coping behaviors to develop near a real-time picture of patients' high-risk situations and the ways they use to deal with them. This information will be used by the therapist and client together to problem-solve and devise adaptive coping responses to these specific high-risk situations, and develop generalized solutions to deal with other situations in the future.
Group II: Case Management (CaseM)Active Control1 Intervention
Intervention: Social and Instrumental Support CaseM is included to control for cohort and other common factors in treatment. During the 12 individual CaseM sessions the therapist and participant will identify problems in daily living that may be of concern, and consider community resources that might help in dealing with them (e.g., contacting a psychiatrist for depression, or finding a better place to live). The therapist's role is to explore the patient's concerns, help to identify goals and resources, provide verbal support, and troubleshoot difficulties that may arise in obtaining or following through with services. The support and attention to ancillary services has proven effective in reducing drinking in previous studies.
Group III: Packaged Cognitive-Behavioral (PCBT)Active Control1 Intervention
Intervention: Cognitive-Behavioral PCBT consists of 12 weekly visits of individual treatment. PCBT is designed to remediate deficits in skills for coping with interpersonal (e.g., social pressure, conflict with others) and intrapersonal (e.g., craving, anger) antecedents to drinking. The treatment consists of 6 mandatory modules (e.g., managing cravings) plus 6 electives from a list of 10 (e.g., receiving criticism; scheduling pleasant activities).The treatment, based on manuals developed for our previous clinical research provides a structured experience using didactic presentations, behavioral rehearsal, and homework practice exercises.
