Course Description
The Relapse Prevention (RP) model has been a mainstay of addictions theory and treatment since its introduction three decades ago. This course provides an overview and update of RP for addictive behaviors with a focus on developments over the last decade (2000-2010). Major treatment outcome studies and meta-analyses are summarized, as are selected empirical findings relevant to the tenets of the RP model. Notable advances in RP in the last decade include the introduction of a reformulated cognitive-behavioral model of relapse and the development of mindfulness-based relapse prevention. Also reviewed is the emergent literature on genetic correlates of relapse following pharmacological and behavioral treatments.
