In…

In this study, 12- and 18-month substance use outcomes were examined for a sample of 79 boys who were randomly assigned to…

Gillis, H. L.; Gass, Michael A.; Russell, Keith C. – Residential Treatment for Children & Youth, 2008

Using a research methodology similar to Jones, Lowe, and Risler (2004),…
