Brief description of study

We are seeking children and teenagers to participate in a research study on decison-making.
Impulsive Decision Reduction Training (IRDT) is a psychoeducational and cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) intervention designed to reduce impulsive and risky decision-making and promote the use of a more adaptive, thoughtful decision-making style in adults.
The primary objective is to investigate the feasibility, tolerability and preliminary effectiveness of a novel intervention, Impulsive Decision Reduction Training for Youth (IDRT-Y), to reduce risky, impulsive decisions and to increase future orientation when making decisions in adolescents (ages 10 – 17).
