Derived relations moderate the association between changes in the strength of commitment language and cocaine treatment response.

The psycholinguistic analysis of client-counselor interactions indicates that how individuals talk about their substance use is associated with treatment outcome. However, the processes by which client speech influences out-of-session behaviors have not been clearly delineated. This study investigated the relationships between deriving relations-a key behavioral process by which language and cognition may come to influence behavior, shifts in the strength of client talk in favor of change, and treatment outcome among 75 cocaine-dependent participants (23% Female). Participants were trained to relate cocaine words, nonsense syllables, and negative-consequence words and were then assessed for a derived relation of equivalence before starting treatment. The DARN-C coding system was used to quantify the strength of participant speech during an early cognitive behavior therapy counseling session. Cocaine use during treatment was the outcome of interest. The analyses (a) characterized the process of deriving relations among individuals seeking help for their misuse of cocaine, (b) tested the relationships between shifts in the strength of participants' speech in favor of change and treatment outcome, and (c) tested if deriving equivalence relations moderated the relationship between shifts in the strength of in-session speech and treatment response. Results indicated that a minority of participants derived equivalence relations, however increases in the strength of commitment language predicted less cocaine use during treatment only among those who did. The findings suggest deriving relations may be an important process by which changes in the strength of commitment language comes to influence substance use.

A secondary aim is to test, within the TSP condition, the effect of a monetary incentive at increasing engagement in the intervention.DiscussionThis randomized controlled trial is testing a novel Facebook intervention for treating young adults’ tobacco use. If efficacious, the social media intervention could be disseminated widely and expanded to address additional health risks.Trial registrationClinicalTrials.gov: NCT02207036, May 13, 2014.

Client-identified helpful and hindering events in therapist-delivered vs. self-administered online cognitive-behavioural treatments for depression in college students

The study investigated what participants found helpful and/or hindering in therapist-delivered vs. self-administered online cognitive-behavioural therapy (CBT) for depression. A descriptive–interpretive analysis was used to investigate client-identified helpful and hindering events and impacts in online treatment. Eighty participants with symptoms of depression were randomly allocated to either eight sessions of therapist-delivered asynchronous e-mail CBT counselling (eCBT; n = 37), or computerised CBT self-administered treatment (cCBT; n = 43) for depression. From sessions 2–8, participants were asked to complete the Helpful Aspects of Therapy form (HAT). Participants completed 149 HAT forms representing a response rate of 45% (eCBT: 49%; cCBT: 42%). Reported helpful events included provision of information, monitoring, scheduling, restructuring, problem solving and distraction techniques and led to impacts such as learning new coping skills and behavioural changes, developing awareness and insight and achieving self-efficacy. Additionally, therapist responsiveness seems to have a worthy impact of feeling supported and validated as identified by the eCBT group, who solely reported helpful events such as acknowledgement/listening, advice and guidance and provision of compassion. Unhelpful events also surfaced for both groups, though more for the cCBT group, and included the burden of work, time and pace, issues with the content and its form of delivery, and technical problems, which led to impacts such as being frustrated, confused, irritated, disappointed, anxious and self-critical. CBT principles remain established in online work and, in addition, therapist responsiveness seems to have a worthy helpful impact, beyond any established CBT techniques or strategies.
