Contingency Management to Reinforce Attendance to Cognitive Behavioral Treatment for Gambling Disorder
Sponsor: East Tennessee State University
Summary
The aim of this study is to conduct a trial to investigate the effectiveness of adding contingency management treatment (CM) to standard care cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) for the treatment of gambling disorder to increase attendance to treatment. CM will be used to incentivize therapy session attendance with a therapist and engagement in recovery-related engagement with a peer recovery specialist. The proposed research will evaluate whether CM can enhance the overall effectiveness of CBT, the most widely tested treatment for individuals with gambling disorder.
