Randomized trial of internet-delivered self-help with telephone support for pathological gamblers.
Abstract
Although effective therapies for pathological gambling exist, their uptake is limited to 10% of the target population. To lower the barriers for help seeking, the authors tested an online alternative in a randomized trial (N = 66). The participants were pathological gamblers not presenting with severe comorbid depression. A wait-list control was compared with an 8-week Internet-based cognitive behavior therapy program with minimal therapist contact via e-mail and weekly telephone calls of less than 15 min. Average time spent on each participant, including phone conversations, e-mail, and administration, was 4 hr. The Internet-based intervention resulted in favorable changes in pathological gambling, anxiety, depression, and quality of life. Composite between-group effect size (Cohen's d) at posttreatment was 0.83. Follow-ups carried out in the treatment group at 6, 18, and 36 months indicated that treatment effects were sustained (ds = 2.58, 1.96, and 1.98). This evidence is in support of Internet-delivered treatment for pathological gamblers. However, it is not clear how effective the treatment is for more severely depressed individuals.

“However, it is important to consider the problematic attrition rates in RCTs of online interventions for gambling disorders, which vary from 6% to 65% in the first follow-up assessment (between 6 and 12 weeks) (Bücker et al., 2018; Carlbring and Smith, 2008; Casey et al., 2017; Cunningham et al., 2009; Hodgins et al., 2019; Magnusson et al., 2019).”

“WL control designs have been used in previous studies (Boudreault et al., 2018; Carlbring and Smith, 2008; Magnusson et al., 2019; Oei et al., 2018), and they are appropriate for estimating treatment effects compared to no-treatment.”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
