A review of research-supported group treatments for drug use disorders
Overview
This paper reviews 50 methodologically rigorous studies on group treatments for adult drug use disorders, covering substances such as cocaine, methamphetamine, marijuana, and opioids. It compares the efficacy of various modalities, including cognitive behavioral therapy, contingency management, and dialectical behavior therapy, against treatment as usual or other controls. The resource is intended for researchers and clinicians interested in evidence-based group interventions for substance use and co-occurring conditions.
