The purpose of this study is to develop a treatment that can effectively help people reduce their alcohol use and quit smoking.

Condition or Disease Intervention/Treatment Phase
  • Behavioral: Mindfulness Based Relapse Prevention - Smoking and Alcohol
  • Behavioral: Cognitive Behavioral Therapy
N/A

Detailed Description

This study evaluates a mindfulness-based treatment to concurrently target cigarette smoking and alcohol use behaviors in adults.

Aim 1: Modify an existing mindfulness-based treatment to include a focus on smoking cessation and reduced alcohol use.

Aim 2: Evaluate benchmarks regarding the feasibility and acceptability of Mindfulness Based Relapse Prevention -Smoking and Alcohol Use.

Aim 3: Collect and examine descriptive data on proximal and distal variables associated with increased smoking abstinence and reduced drinking.

Arms and Interventions

Arm Intervention/Treatment
Experimental: Mindfulness Based Relapse Prevention

Participants will receive Mindfulness Based Relapse Prevention (MBRP), an existing substance use treatment, which has been modified to focus explicitly on smoking cessation and reduced alcohol use, creating Mindfulness Based Relapse Prevention - Smoking and Alcohol (MBRP-SA).

Behavioral: Mindfulness Based Relapse Prevention - Smoking and Alcohol
Mindfulness Based Relapse Prevention (MBRP) is a treatment for preventing relapse in addictive disorders that integrates mindfulness meditation with standard relapse prevention practices.
Other Names:
  • MBRP
  • Active Comparator: Cognitive Behavioral Therapy

    Participants will receive Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) a well-established and commonly used treatment for substance abuse behaviors that utilizes problem solving and coping skills.

    Behavioral: Cognitive Behavioral Therapy
    Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is a form of therapy that aims to help individuals modify problematic emotions, behaviors, and thoughts.

  • CBT
  • Outcome Measures

    Primary Outcome Measures

    1. Aim 2: Participant Satisfaction [End of treatment (Week 21)]

      Patient satisfaction will be determined through a score on the Client Satisfaction Questionnaire Version 8 (Attkinson & Greenfield), where participants respond to 8 items on a 4-point scale (1=very dissatisfied; 4=very satisfied).

    2. Aim 2: Rate of Recruitment [End of recruitment, Year 3]

      Rate of recruitment per month

    3. Aim 2: Participant Retention [End of study, Year 3]

      Number of participants retained through follow-up

    4. Aim 2: Questionnaire Completion [End of study, Year 3]

      Percentage of questionnaires completed

    Secondary Outcome Measures

    1. Aim 3: Rate of Smoking Abstinence [End of treatment, 16 week follow-up]

      Rate of smoking abstinence, measured by biochemical verification of abstinence via saliva continine and self-report of no smoking in the past 7 days. Participants who report abstinence will be mailed a saliva continine kit to confirm abstinence at their 16 week follow up call.

    2. Aim 3: Rate of Alcohol Use [End of treatment, 16 week follow-up]

      Rate of Alcohol use, measured by self-report of no alcohol consumption in the past 7 days at end of study.
