Cognitive versus behavioral treatment of concurrent alcohol dependence and agoraphobia: A pilot study

Article Abstract:

A behavioral treatment (BT), consisting of five sessions treating alcohol dependence and five sessions treating panic disorder with agoraphobia, was compared to a cognitive treatment (CT) that addressed the dysfunctional cognitions mediating the alcohol problem and anxiety symptoms. The results stated that no differences occurred between a primarily BT and a primarily CT on any of the alcohol variables during treatment and a 1-year follow-up.

Self-reported motivations to change and self-efficacy levels for a group of recidivist drink drivers

Examination of the self-reported frequency of drink driving revealed that both motivations and self-efficacy levels are predictors of past offences and future intentions to drink and drive.
