Treating Adult Marijuana Dependence: A Test of the Relapse Prevention Model.

Stephens, Robert S.; And Others

Journal of Consulting and Clinical Psychology, v62 n1 p92-99 Feb 1994

Randomly assigned adults (n=212) seeking treatment for marijuana use to relapse prevention (RP) or social support (SSP) group discussion intervention. Data collected at 12 months posttreatment revealed substantial reductions in frequency of marijuana use and associated problems; no significant difference between treatments on days of marijuana use, related problems, or abstinence rates.
