Both behavioral (contingency management) and cognitive (relapse prevention) interventions have shown promise in helping engage these clients in treatment. In this study, the effectiveness of combining contingency management with a cocaine-specific relapse prevention counseling module was examined. Sixty-one cocaine-using methadone clients were r…

Results indicated that women who participated frequently in the women's groups (four to six sessions) showed greater incre…
