Conditions
Summary
Tourette Syndrome and Persistent Motor/Vocal Tic Disorder affect 1-3% of youth and can be associated with impaired functioning, emotional and behavioral problems, physical pain, diminished quality of life, and peer victimization. Chronic tics are the primary symptom. Comprehensive Behavioral Intervention for Tics (CBIT) is a manualized treatment focused on tic management skills. During the core CBIT procedure, competing response training, patients learn to inhibit tics by engaging in a competing motor action. The overall objective of this study is to identify bio-behavioral predictors and correlates of response and the most potent aspects of CBIT. Participants with chronic tics will complete a manualized course of 8-session CBIT. Neural, behavioral, psychosocial, and global functioning will be assessed longitudinally to examine predictors and correlates of response. CBIT sessions will be video recorded. CBIT process will be measured with a video-based behavioral coding scheme that will be refined and validated during years 1-2 using archival CBIT videos

Interventions
Participants will receive 8 sessions delivered weekly over 10 weeks. All sessions will be video recorded. CBIT components are: 1) Psychoeducation about tics, 2) Functional interventions, 3) Competing response (CR) training, 4) Social support: supportive people (e.g., parent, teacher) , 5) Motivational enhancements, 6) Homework: is assigned each session and typically involves self-monitoring and CR practice. Participants will complete a brief daily homework tracking log in REDCap.
