Summary

The purpose of this study is to test the utilization of incentive values (considerably lower than those typically used in research clinics) to motivate clients to attend treatment and initiate and sustain abstinence.

Detailed description

The purpose of the proposed research is to implement and systematically evaluate, in community treatment settings, motivational incentive procedures that have been well researched and have proven efficacious in a variety of treatment research clinics. The study will determine if motivational incentives along with standard care therapy is more effective than standard therapy alone for the treatment of patients using cocaine or methamphetamine and entering a substance abuse treatment program.
