DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): Research has provided substantial evidence for a relationship between alcoholism and anger emotions (e.g.,anger, hostility, frustration, irritation, annoyance). There is evidence that alcoholics score higher on measures of anger relative to nonalcoholics and that anger is a common precipitant to relapse. Despite the empirical association between anger, alcoholism, and relapse, anger management treatments have not been effectively studied among persons with alcohol dependence. The present application, submitted under NIAAA's "Behavioral and Integrative Treatment Development Program" Program Announcement (PA-07-111), proposes the development and preliminary evaluation of an alcohol-based anger management treatment protocol (specifically Cognitive-Relaxation and Coping Skills Training [CRCS]) for use as an outpatient alcoholism treatment. The proposed project will be conducted in two phases. In Phase 1, a 12-session treatment manual for conducting anger management therapy with outpatient alcohol dependent men and women scoring high on an index of anger emotions will be developed, based on the work of Dr. Jeffery Deffenbacher with CRCS. In Phase 2, a pilot clinical trial will be conducted to examine the relative effects of the alcohol-adapted CRCS to a Treatment as Usual alcoholism therapy among alcoholics scoring high on an index of anger emotions. Primary outcomes will be measures of alcohol involvement and anger emotions. Positive findings emerging from this research will serve as a foundation for a larger, Stage 2 controlled clinical trial to further evaluate CRCS in alcoholism treatment and to determine mechanisms of action. The long-term goal of this research is to improve alcohol outcomes and decrease relapse, which will provide significant health benefits to persons being treated for alcohol dependence

描述（由申请人提供）：研究为酗酒和愤怒情绪之间的关系提供了大量证据（例如，愤怒、敌意、沮丧、恼怒、烦恼）。有证据表明，酗酒者在愤怒方面的得分高于非酗酒者，愤怒是复发的常见诱因。尽管愤怒，酗酒和复发之间的经验关联，愤怒管理治疗尚未有效地研究酒精依赖的人。根据NIAAA的“行为和综合治疗发展计划”计划公告（PA-07-111）提交的本申请提出了开发和初步评估基于酒精的愤怒管理治疗方案（特别是认知放松和应对技能训练[CRCS]），以用作门诊酒精中毒治疗。拟议项目将分两个阶段进行。在第一阶段，将根据Jeffery Deffenbacher博士与CRCS的工作，制定一份12节的治疗手册，用于对门诊酒精依赖的男性和女性进行愤怒管理治疗，这些男性和女性在愤怒情绪指数上得分很高。在第2阶段，将进行一项试点临床试验，以检查酒精适应性CRCS对在愤怒情绪指数上得分高的酗酒者中进行酒精中毒治疗的相对效果。主要结果将是酒精参与和愤怒情绪的措施。这项研究的积极发现将为更大规模的第2阶段对照临床试验奠定基础，以进一步评估CRCS在酒精中毒治疗中的作用，并确定其作用机制。这项研究的长期目标是改善酒精结果并减少复发，这将为接受酒精依赖治疗的人提供显着的健康益处
