Effectiveness of Attentional Bias Modification Combined With Cognitive Behavioral Therapy in Reducing Relapse Risk and Cravings in Male Patients With Alcohol Use Disorder: A Quasi‐Randomized Controlled Trial
Although the combined ABM and CBT intervention did not result in statistically significant reductions in relapse risk and cravings compared to CBT alone, the overall reduction in these outcomes in both groups highlights the effectiveness of CBT in treating AUD. Future studies should use naturalistic settings and tailor the intervention to individual cognitive profiles.
