About the trial
What the trial wants to find out
Intrusive re-experiencing is a hallmark of PTSD. The study applies ecological momentary assessment (EMA) of participants' trauma memories (active group) vs. EMA of a neutral memory (control group) to test whether the active intervention can reduce intrusive symptoms severity and overal PTSD symptom severity in general.
The 2 groups in the trial
- Neutral MemorySham treatment, for comparison
Participants allocated to this arm will complete AMQ-based ecological momentary assessments (EMAs) focused on an emotionally neutral memory identified at the beginning of the trial.
Treatment: AMQ-based ecological momentary assessment of an emotionally neutral memory
- Intrusive MemoriesExisting treatment, for comparison
Participants allocated to this arm will complete AMQ-based ecological momentary assessments (EMAs) focused on an intrusive memory identified at the beginning of the trial.
