  • Title: Changes over time in addiction security index problem dimensions among cocaine abusers1 treated in community settings.
    Author: Vaughan EL, McMahon RC.
    Journal: Subst Use Misuse; 2006; 41(9):1287-94. PubMed ID: 16861179.
    Abstract:
    Clinical trials have yielded evidence for the efficacy of treatment for cocaine dependence but are limited in their ability to generalize their results to those attending community treatment programs for drug dependence. This study aimed to determine whether 223 cocaine-dependent males attending one of three different residential community treatment centers in Miami-Dade County, Florida exhibited change in Addiction Severity Index (ASI) problem dimensions similar to those participating in clinical trials. Results of repeated-measures analysis of variance yielded evidence for reductions over time in six of seven ASI dimensions. These results are similar to those found in clinical trials of treatments for cocaine dependence.
