Résumé :
AIMS: To examine the efficacy, 3- and 6-month follow-up effects of a psychological treatment for older adolescents and adults with DSM-IV cannabis use disorders. The program was tailored to the needs of this patient population.
EXPERIMENTAL PROCEDURES: A randomized controlled clinical trial of 122 patients aged 16 to 44 years with DSM-IV cannabis dependence as the main substance use diagnosis was conducted. Patients were randomly assigned to either Active Treatment (AT, n = 90) or a Delayed Treatment Control group (DTC, n = 32). Treatment consisted of 10 sessions of therapy, detailed in a strictly enforced manual. Assessments were conducted at baseline, during each therapy session, at post treatment and at follow-up assessments at 3 and 6 months.
RESULTS: The treatment retention rate was 88%. Abstinence was achieved in 49% of AT patients and in 13% of those in DTC (p CONCLUSION: The treatment program is effective in obtaining abstinence as well as reducing cannabis use and improves the associated social and mental health burden.
