ABSTRACT

Habit Reversal Training (HRT) is a training in which behavioral therapy principles can be used as an adjunct or alternative to drug therapy in the treatment of motor and vocal tics in children and adolescents aged 9 and over. Although there are questions about the effectiveness of the training, which has more than one therapy component, there are positive results in literature conducted to date regarding its effectiveness compared to other therapy methods. In this review, the components in the HRT and the scientific research will be reviewed.
