Treatment Effects |
At
3-months post-discharge, 29% of participants had 30 days of uninterrupted
abstinence, 40% had decreased their use substantially, and 56% had
decreased life problems. |
At
*6 months post, "abstainers" Males, completers vs. noncompleters=.47
to .78. Same data for females, *6 months post (completers vs. noncompleters)=
.55 to .79. NOTE - baseline data not given, could only compare between
groups. |
Significant
change between groups decrease in alcohol use over time from pre
to post ACC=14% to 5%, usual continuing care (UCC)=11% to 9%; non
significant trend change between groups on change in marijuana use
pre to post: ACC=40% to 14%, UCC=36% to 19%; ACC participants were
able to sustain abstinence from marijuana for significantly longer
the UCC (90 vs. 31 days) and had a non-signifcant trend toward
longer abstinence from alcohol (83 vs. 63 days). |
Behavioral
group pre vs. 6 months post use= 100% to 27%. Same for control group=100%
to .92%. .For adolescents in behavioral treatment, alcohol use decreased
by about 50% while in increased by 50% in the control group. Chi-square
for difference between groups in use at 6 months post = 10.54 (N=26)
with an effect size of 1.65 between behavioral and control groups. |
NR |
At
3-month follow-up, adolescents in CBT treatment significantly reduced
the severity of their substance use compared with those assigned
to IT. |
At
3- months post-discharge, alcohol problems improved significantly
overall (Mean score 1.1 to 0.5;); with a trend towards more improvement
for PET than CBT (PET mean score 1.4 to 0.6; CBT mean score 0.8
to 0.5). At 3-months post-discharge, substance abuse problems overall
improved significantly (mean score 1.7 to 0.8); with a trend towards
more improvement for CBT than for PET (PET mean score 1.6 to 1.0;
CBT mean score 1.8 to 0.6). |
Found
significant (p<.001) reductions in substance use for all clients:
alcohol (F=17.71), cannabis (F=55.51), other drugs (F=37.35). No
differences in outcomes between inpatient clients and day treatment
(outpatient) clients. |
Pre
to post treatment change in "drug abuse" index CFT=65.00

comparison of CFT vs. OPFT=57.50 to 53.40 (SD=10.90). Both conditions
were highly effective in improving family functioning and OPFT was
slightly more effective in reducing patient symptomatology |
During
the 3-month treatment phase, all interventions reduced days of cannabis
use from 36 to 22 (-37.0%, p<.05) and number of substance problems
from 3.8 to 2.4 (-37.3%, p<.05). The short term reduction in
marijuana use was significantly larger for ACRA (-35%) and MET/CBT5
(-33%) than for MDFT (-28%). The short term reduction in problems
was significantly larger for FSN (-47%) than for MET/CBT5 (-39%)
or MET/CBT12 (-20%). Mean change in days of marijuana use from 0-3
months: Incremental: MET/CBT5=30.5 to 15.6, MET/CBT12= 33.6 to 22.4,
MET/CBT12+FSN= 36.4 to 20.0, total incremental=33.6 to 19.3. Alternative:

Change
in R square for assignment to treatment (family group vs. parent
group) controlling for many variables (all listed in excel sheet)
was 0.17 (effect size=0.35). |
At
6-month post-intake, percentage using alcohol decreased from 91.4%
to 50.7% and % using marijuana decreased from 84.0% to 35.0%. |
Youth
in both intervention conditions demonstrated significant decreases
in average number of days using illicit drugs. Pre to post treatment
mean days of use FBT decreased from 13.62 to 9.00, ICPS from 14.14
to 9.28, Pre to 6-month follow-up means days of use FBT decreased
from 13.62 to 8.61 (post to 6-month 9.00 to 8.61) and for ICPS from
14.14 to 8.35 (post to 6-month 9.28 to 8.35). |
Logistic
chi squared analysis of urine drug assays was significantly different
for the active (n=13) versus the placebo (n=12) groups (chi squared

Difference
in marijuana use, Engaged group versus unengaged group = 11.79 to

for alcohol use = 2.39 to 1.98 (SD=5.50). |

Self-reported
soft drug use was significantly lower (F(1,44)=4.44, p<.041)
at posttreatment (from pre) for youths in the MST condition (M=.36)
than for youth is in the probation as usual condition (M=1.68).
A very low base rate on the hard drug use subscale precluded use
of statistical analysis to examine treatment effects. |
There
were significant differences in use of marijuana, alcohol and other
drugs for MST from pre-post treatment. There were no differences
in drug use for the probation as usual group. At post-treatment,
MST adolescents' use of marijuana, alcohol, and other drugs was
significantly lower than the probation as usual group, but when
controlling for preexisting difference this difference disappeared.
Pre to 6 month follow up change in alcohol and marijuana use for
MST= 30.00 to 19.00 (SD=34.00). Same change for US = 18.00 to 17.00

pre to 6 months post=17.00 to 19.00 (SD=29.00). |

At
post-treatment, 55% of adolescents in PBFT made significant decreases

of drug use at treatment end were significantly lower for adolescents

pre and post-treatment for those in TIPS. |
No

Young
adults in the MST condition had significantly higher rates of marijuana
abstinence (55% versus 28%) than did counterparts in the usual services
condition. Rates of cocaine abstinence were not significantly different
between treatment types. |
There
was a statistically significant reduction in use (percent change,
cutoff is using 5 or more times per year) for age 13-17 nonmethadone
OP for using primary substance (-18%), age 13-17 long-term residential
for primary substance (-22%), marijuana (-26%), cocaine (-43%),
Any illicit substance (-22%), and drunk in past 30 days (-15%).
There were also significant reductions in use for ages 18-20 for
long-term residential , but not for OP. |
