Abstract

We present a dual-study protocol to optimize Episodic Future Thinking (EFT), a mental simulation technique, as intervention to reduce cannabis use. Two 2x2 factorial experiments compare delivery format (Study 1) and domain-specific cue relevance (Study 2). Planned analyses test main and interaction effects on cannabis use, delay discounting, and engagement.
