DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): Many researchers have studied the effects of parental alcohol and drug use on child outcomes. These studies conclude that parental substance use has the potential to negatively impact children's psychosocial development by depriving them of adequate care and supervision, impeding their socioemotional and cognitive development and/or influencing them to become substance users as well. Considering a bidirectional, systemic model for understanding the development, maintenance and recovery of substance use problems, it follows that the child impacts parents' behaviors as well. Family therapy has consistently shown that involvement of family members in the treatment of substance users is associated with higher levels of engagement and retention in treatment. Many studies report pre to post treatment reductions in substance use and related problems among those receiving couples and family therapy. While randomized clinical trials of family therapy have involved adult identified patients (IPs) in couples therapy and adolescent IPs in family therapy, this study will evaluate a family systems intervention involving an adolescent child in the treatment plan of the adult treatment seeker. In the current study, alcohol and drug treatment seeking adult mothers of an adolescent child (11-15) living in the home will be engaged. All clients will be randomized to (1) ecologically-based family therapy (EBFT) in the home + treatment as usual (TAU), (2) EBFT at the office + TAU, or (3) TAU + attention control. The relative efficacy of this approach will be evaluated at 3, 6, 12, and 18 months post-baseline. Proposed change mechanisms (mediators) for family therapy will be evaluated. Differential treatment response as a function of gender, family history of alcohol or drug use, and primary alcohol v. drug abuse (moderators) will be investigated to better understand the intervention. The study will also examine how, if at all, treatment engagement and retention impact parent and adolescent response to treatment. Information gained through this project will help evaluate the utility of including adolescent family members in the treatment plan of their adult parents. Finally, the study will include an economic evaluation component to estimate the economic cost of each intervention and determine which condition is most cost effective. Intervention that includes a focus on parent-child interaction has the potential to enhance substance use reductions, reduce parent relapse, and improve family and emotional health among adults. Involvement of the adolescent offers the opportunity to increase the potential protection of a positive parent-child relationship which is shown to be associated with positive developmental outcomes. Narrative Given the reciprocal nature of parent-child interaction, involvement of the adolescent in their mother's substance abuse treatment plan might be associated with reductions in adult relapse and improvements in child functioning. These findings would support the assertion that focus on family dynamics in substance abuse treatment programs is an effective use of resources and an important target of intervention efforts. PUBLIC HEALTH RELEVANCE: Given the reciprocal nature of parent-child interaction, involvement of the adolescent in their mother's substance abuse treatment plan might be associated with reductions in adult relapse and improvements in child functioning. These findings would support the assertion that focus on family dynamics in substance abuse treatment programs is an effective use of resources and an important target of intervention efforts.

描述（由申请人提供）：许多研究人员研究了父母酗酒和吸毒对儿童结局的影响。这些研究得出的结论是，父母吸毒可能会剥夺儿童充分的照顾和监督，阻碍他们的社会情感和认知发展和/或影响他们成为吸毒者，从而对儿童的社会心理发展产生负面影响。考虑到理解物质使用问题的发展、维持和恢复的双向系统模型，孩子也会影响父母的行为。家庭治疗一致表明，家庭成员参与药物滥用者的治疗与更高水平的治疗参与度和保留率相关。许多研究报告称，接受夫妻和家庭治疗的患者在治疗前和治疗后的物质使用和相关问题有所减少。虽然家庭治疗的随机临床试验涉及夫妻治疗中的成年患者 (IP) 和家庭治疗中的青少年 IP，但本研究将评估在成人治疗寻求者的治疗计划中涉及青少年儿童的家庭系统干预。在当前的研究中，将对家中青少年儿童（11-15 岁）的成年母亲进行酒精和药物治疗。所有客户将被随机分配到 (1) 家庭生态家庭治疗 (EBFT) + 照常治疗 (TAU)，(2) 办公室 EBFT + TAU，或 (3) TAU + 注意力控制。该方法的相对疗效将在基线后 3、6、12 和 18 个月进行评估。将评估拟议的家庭治疗变革机制（调解者）。将调查作为性别、酗酒或吸毒家族史以及主要酒精与药物滥用（调节因素）的函数的差异化治疗反应，以更好地了解干预措施。该研究还将研究治疗参与度和保留率如何（如果有的话）影响父母和青少年对治疗的反应。通过该项目获得的信息将有助于评估将青少年家庭成员纳入其成年父母的治疗计划的效用。最后，该研究将包括一个经济评估部分，以估计每种干预措施的经济成本，并确定哪种条件最具成本效益。注重亲子互动的干预措施有可能减少药物使用、减少父母旧病复发，并改善成年人的家庭和情感健康。青少年的参与提供了增加对积极的亲子关系的潜在保护的机会，这种关系被证明与积极的发展成果相关。叙述 鉴于亲子互动的相互性，青少年参与母亲的药物滥用治疗计划可能与减少成人复发和改善儿童功能有关。这些发现支持这样的观点：在药物滥用治疗计划中关注家庭动态是资源的有效利用，也是干预工作的重要目标。公共卫生相关性：考虑到亲子互动的相互性，青少年参与母亲的药物滥用治疗计划可能与减少成人复发和改善儿童功能有关。这些发现支持这样的观点：在药物滥用治疗计划中关注家庭动态是资源的有效利用，也是干预工作的重要目标。
