Abstract:
The present study examined the comparative effects of adding contingency management (CM) schedules to an existing substance abuse continuing care program, with the goal of increasing attendance. We retrospectively examined the attendance of 135 veterans enrolled in one of three CM programs and a quasi-control condition of 55 veterans. Results indicated that participants enrolled in the two higher magnitude CM voucher programs increased both continuing care attendance and length of participation. Findings support the use of CM to increase continuing care attendance among veterans with substance use disorders, and suggest that voucher magnitude and bonuses both had a positive impact.
