Behavioral treatment package for repetitive behavior disorders
Habit reversal training (HRT) is a "multicomponent behavioral treatment package originally developed to address a wide variety of repetitive behavior disorders".[1]
Behavioral disorders treated with HRT include tics, trichotillomania, nail biting, thumb sucking, skin picking, temporomandibular disorder (TMJ), lip-cheek biting and stuttering.[2][3][4] It consists of five components: awareness training, competing response training, contingency management, relaxation training, and generalization training.[1]
Research on the efficacy of HRT for behavioral disorders have produced consistent, large effect sizes (approximately 0.80 across the disorders).[3] It has met the standard of a well-established treatment for stuttering, thumb sucking, nail biting, and TMJ disorders.[3] According to a meta-analysis from 2012,[5] decoupling, a self-help variant of HRT, also shows efficacy.
