Abstract
The study explored how characteristics of emotional functioning, craving, and emotion dysregulation might predict occurrence of relapse 3 months post-treatment in patients with AUD. Age of participants and the level of craving at follow-up were the only factors that differentiated patients who resumed alcohol use from those who didn’t.
