To examine the impact of a computer-delivered, home-based, alcohol-specific attention modification program (AMP), 41 heavy drinking college students were randomly assigned to AMP or an attention control condition (ACC). Participants selected 10 alcohol-related words most relevant to their own drinking experience as well as 10 neutral words not related to alcohol. These personalized stimuli were used in an attention retaining program based upon the probe detection paradigm twice weekly for 4 weeks. Participants in the AMP condition reported decreased drinking, whereas those in the ACC condition reported no change in their drinking. These preliminary data suggest that a computer-delivered, home-delivered, attention-retraining for alcohol treatment may be an inexpensive and efficacious adjunct to standard alcohol treatments.
为了检验一种通过计算机提供的、基于家庭的、针对酒精的注意力修正程序(AMP)的效果,41名重度饮酒的大学生被随机分配到AMP组或注意力控制组(ACC)。参与者选择了10个与他们自己饮酒经历最相关的酒精相关词汇以及10个与酒精无关的中性词汇。这些个性化刺激物被用于一个基于探测检测范式的注意力保持程序中,每周两次,持续4周。AMP组的参与者报告饮酒量减少,而ACC组的参与者报告饮酒量没有变化。这些初步数据表明,一种通过计算机提供的、在家中进行的、针对酒精治疗的注意力再训练可能是标准酒精治疗的一种廉价且有效的辅助手段。
