Brief Summary: The study aims to test the efficacy of a CBT-enhanced text message intervention and a supportive text message intervention to reduce symptom burden in individuals with post-traumatic stress disorder symptoms and co-occurring hazardous drinking
Detailed Description: This study will test a previously piloted and refined text message intervention by comparing a CBT text message intervention to supportive messages condition for reducing hazardous drinking HD and PTSD symptoms The intervention will be tested in a fully powered two-arm randomized controlled trial RCT comparing a text message intervention 3 textsweek based on CBT skills to supportive texts A sample of 333 participants with DSM-5 Criterion A trauma exposure PTSD symptoms and HD will be enrolled and randomized to condition Baseline post- 1- 3- 6- 9- and 12-month assessments will capture change in primary outcomes PTSD hazardous drinking long-term Weekly assessments will be given to both conditions to understand shorter-term patterns of symptom change associated with the interventions

Eligible participants will be individually randomized by the Study Research Coordinator to one of the two conditions For those in the intervention condition participants will receive three text messages presenting a CBT skill followed by framing and growth mindsets sent on Tuesday Wednesday Friday They will also be asked to complete weekly self-reports on PTSD and HD every Monday following their first week of text messages The supportive messages only group will be sent three short supportive messages timed to correspond with the CBT skill group and will be asked to complete the weekly self-reports on PTSD and HD every Monday for four consecutive weeks

Primary measures include measures assessing inclusion criteria and main outcomes Primary measures are given at screeningbaseline and all follow-ups unless otherwise noted

Demographics including age raceethnicity gender incomework status weight for BAC calculation for safety monitoring verification of cell phone ownership and willingness to receive messages certification of English fluency and current residential zipcode to verify WA State residency will be assessed at screening only

Trauma exposure and PTSD symptoms will be assessed using the Posttraumatic Stress Disorder Checklist Civilian Version DSM-5 with the Life Events Checklist PCL-5 and LEC

HD will be assessed via a set of measures that provide a detailed picture of drinking patterns First two questions will ask about heavy episodic drinking HED 45 or more drinks per single occasion for menwomen episodes assessing both frequency over the lifetime and frequency over the last month Typical weekly alcohol consumption will also be assessed using the Daily Drinking Questionnaire DDQ Negative alcohol-related consequences will be assessed via the Short Index of Problems SIP

Analyses will compare conditions to test effect sizes between the two conditions text message intervention vs supportive messages The sample size was selected based on power calculations for detecting a small effect between conditions and also to allow for testing of a-priori chosen effect modifiers race gender trauma type CBT skill use
