摘要: Abstract This study examined correlates of methamphetamine (MA) and marijuana (MJ) use treatment response among treatment-involved youth (N = 4,430) in Los Angeles County, California treated between 2000 2005. Of the sample, 912 (21%) were primary MA 3,518 (79%) MJ users. Correlates increased included being female, White, Asian or Latino, older age, previous involvement, legal status probation parole, initiating drug at an age. Treatment trends showed a rise admissions for MA, with more users enrolling residential compared to outpatient treatment. Predictors retention, discharge, completion by modality are discussed. Results can guide development effective strategies assessment planning tailored towards minimizing maximizing youth.
