Outpatient behavioral treatment for cocaine dependence: One-year outcome.

Abstract: This article describes outcomes observed during the year after treatment entry from two controlled trials in which cocaine-dependent outpatients were randomly assigned to either a multicomponent behavioral treatment or to one of two control treatments. The behavioral treatment integrated the community reinforcement approach (CRA) with an incentive program in which cocaine abstinence was reinforced with vouchers exchangeable for retail items. The two control treatments were drug abuse counseling and CRA without… Show more

“…The effectiveness of CRA for alcohol-dependent individuals led to applications of the treatment to patients dependent on cocaine and/or opioids. Patients who receive CRA with incentives for abstinence are more likely to complete treatment and to be abstinent from cocaine at 6-month to 1-year follow-ups than are patients who receive 12-step oriented drug counseling or than patients who receive CRA without specific incentives for abstinence (Higgins et al, 2002;Higgins et al, 1995;Miller et al, 2001;Roozen et al, 2004).…”

“…Even if clinicians are trained to perform psychosocial treatments, such as a cognitive behavioral treatment, they cannot prevent the relapse due to the lack of unremitting patients' supervision (McGovern et al, 2013). Furthermore, the relapse rate of the existing treatment practices has been reported to be over 70% (Higgins et al, 1995). Last but not least, the treatment outcomes were found to be short-term because 60% of the patients relapsed one year after treatment completion (Gossop et al, 2002).…”

“…In all likelihood, though, the self-reported data can be trusted, as numerous authors have noted that substance abusers in their research studies have provided accurate information about their drug-using behaviors. [21][22][23][24] Second, although the communities where Project NIA was conducted were assigned to the standard or enhanced intervention condition on a random basis, the individuals participating in the study at these locales were not. Thus, the randomization procedure used in this study was practical, considering the study's logistical needs, but not ideal scientifically.…”
