Official Title:
Determining the neurobiological predictors of substance use treatment outcomes in justice-involved youth
We are interested in understanding how individual factors and experiences impact treatment outcomes for adolescents (age 12-17) who are currently in treatment for problem behavior and/or alcohol or drug use. Participation involves teens and their caregiver completing two, 2.5 hour in-person study visits including completing questionnaires, providing a saliva sample, and completing an MRI scan. Participants and their caregiver can earn up to $250.
