About the study
The goal of this clinical trial is to compare a novel tactic for mitigating reinstatement compared to the current standard of care approach using a translational-treatment model. The main questions it aims to answer are:
1. how well does progressive ratio training mitigate response-dependent reinstatement compared to the standard of care approach? 2. how well does progressive ratio training mitigate response-independent reinstatement compared to the standard of care approach?
What is being tested
- Progressive Ratio Training (PRT) (behavioral)
- Differential Reinforcement of Alternative (DRA) Behavior with Extinction (behavioral)
