Computer Training in CBT for Spanish-speaking Alcohol Users

Brief Summary:

Specific aims are as follows:

• To adapt our existing CBT4CBT program for use with Spanish-speaking alcohol users in a web-based platform
• To conduct an 8-week randomized trial evaluating the feasibility and efficacy of adding CBT4CBT-Spanish to treatment as usual in a community based treatment program in a population of 90 Spanish-speaking individuals who meet current criteria for alcohol use disorder
• To evaluate the long-term durability and/or delayed emergence of treatment effects through a six month follow-up after termination of the study treatments. Given previous evidence regarding the durability of standard clinician-delivered CBT and computer-assisted CBT4CBT, we hypothesize that CBT4CBTSpanish will be significantly more effective than standard treatment alone through the follow-up.
