The current study applied network analysis to explore the relationships between diagnostic symptom clusters by examining the strength and direction of unique associations between PTSD and SUD. Network analyses were estimated using a sample of 422 veterans diagnosed with co-occurring PTSD/SUD initiating psychotherapy for PTSD while receiving concurrent outpatient SUD treatment as part of a randomized clinical trial. Separate network models were estimated for PTSD and the three most common SUD in the sample: alcohol use disorder (AUD), cannabis use disorder (CUD) and stimulant use disorder (StUD). Trauma-related intrusions and alcohol-related social impairment were the bridging symptom clusters that connected PTSD and AUD. Symptom clusters that connected PTSD and CUD were trauma-related intrusions and hyperarousal symptoms. Trauma-related alterations in cognition and mood and stimulant-related pharmacological symptoms were the bridging symptom clusters that connected PTSD and StUD. Each network of symptom clusters culminated in the trauma-related avoidance cluster, suggesting avoidance may represent a final outcome of the downstream effects of these symptoms. Across models, PTSD and SUD symptom clusters both served as sources of activation driving the comorbidity. There were also few and relatively weak bridging symptom clusters that connected PTSD/SUD, suggesting symptom change in one disorder may have minimal effect on the other disorder. Therefore, simultaneously treating PTSD and SUD as well as employing individualized treatment planning to target prominent symptoms may be most beneficial for veterans with PTSD/SUD.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":7155,"journal":{"name":"Addictive behaviors","volume":"163 ","pages":"Article 108249"},"PeriodicalIF":3.7,"publicationDate":"2025-01-16","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143017948","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Desire thinking has been proposed to be an active driver of urge, and therefore disrupting desire thinking processes may reduce urges to play. Detached mindfulness, a meta-cognitive therapy technique, is a candidate option for reducing desire thinking, but the available research in relation to gaming is limited. To address this gap, this pre-registered study employed a 3 (Group: mindfulness, relaxation, control) x 3 (Time: baseline, pre-task, post-task) mixed experimental design to evaluate the effectiveness of different techniques to reduce gaming urges. Gamers (<em>N</em> = 337) were recruited via the crowd-sourcing platform <em>Prolific</em>. Participants were administered interactive video-based tasks that induced gaming-related desire thinking and were then randomly delivered one of three techniques. Results showed that the desire thinking exercise significantly increased gaming urge. However, the detached mindfulness technique had no significant effect on urge to play, whereas relaxation significantly reduced urge compared to control. The effect of relaxation on urge was stronger for those with moderate to high impulsivity. These results support the proposed link between desire thinking and gaming urge. Gaming urges may be reliably induced using a brief self-guided protocol, which has applications for interventions involving exposure exercises without the use of physical gaming stimuli. Relaxation techniques may have short-term utility in reducing gaming-related urges.
