First seen Feb 03, 2026 · Last updated Jun 23, 2026 · Updated 26 times
Summary
This study follows 100 adults who drink alcohol at least weekly and have some interest in cutting back. Researchers want to see how alcohol use, suicidal thoughts, and decision-making are linked. Participants get access to a self-guided online cognitive behavioral therapy program (CBT4CBT) and complete three months of follow-up assessments. The goal is to understand what predicts engagement with the program and whether it helps reduce drinking and suicidal thoughts.

What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.
Active substance
Self-guided cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT4CBT) via computer or internet
What this could lead to
If successful, this could point toward a scalable, low-cost digital tool to help people reduce alcohol use and related suicidal thoughts.
What could go wrong
This is a small, single-group observational study with no control group, so results may not prove the therapy works. Engagement with the self-guided program may be low.
