The use of contingency management and motivational/skills-building therapy to treat young adults with marijuana dependence.

Marijuana-dependent young adults (N = 136), all referred by the criminal justice system, were randomized to 1 of 4 treatment conditions: a motivational/skills-building intervention (motivational enhancement therapy/cognitive-behavioral therapy; MET/ CBT) plus incentives contingent on session attendance or submission of marijuana-free urine specimens (contingency management; CM), MET/ CBT without CM, individual drug counseling (DC) plus CM, and DC without CM. There was a significant main effect of CM on treatment retention and marijuana-free urine specimens. Moreover, the combination of MET/ CBT plus CM was significantly more effective than MET/ CBT without CM or DC plus CM, which were in turn more effective than DC without CM for treatment attendance and percentage of marijuana-free urine specimens. Participants assigned to MET/ CBT continued to reduce the frequency of their marijuana use through a 6-month follow-up. ((c) 2006 APA, all rights reserved).[1]
