This long-awaited follow-up to the classic text Clinical Manual of
Adolescent Substance Abuse Treatment presents the latest research
on substance use and substance use disorders (SUDs) in adolescents
12-18 and emerging adults 18-25 years of age. This new manual
offers a substantive update of the previous manual's 16 chapters,
offering 7 additional chapters devoted to important new topics,
such as pediatric primary care assessment and intervention,
electronic tools, specific substances (e.g., cannabis, opioids,
alcohol), and much more. Psychiatrists, psychologists, social
workers, and substance abuse specialists, as well as applied
researchers and public health professionals, will find this new
manual a research-rich and clinically compelling resource for
understanding disease course, prevention, diagnosis,
substance-specific interventions, co-occurring disorders, and
issues related to special populations. The strengths of this text,
edited by two of the foremost experts on addiction among youth, are
many: * Because youth are not simply "miniature adults," the book
uses a developmentally informed approach to understand the onset of
substance use and the trajectory to SUD and behavioral addictive
disorders.* An extensive section of the book is devoted to
epidemiology, diagnosis, and interventions for specific substances
of abuse, including alcohol, tobacco, cannabis, and opioids. The
full range of interventions are described for each, including
pharmacotherapy, cognitive-behavior therapy, motivational
enhancement, and psychosocial strategies.* An introduction on the
nature of the association between co-occurring disorders is
followed by chapters on internalizing disorders (such as
depression), suicidal behavior, psychotic disorders, externalizing
disorders (such as attention-deficit/hyperactivity), and behavioral
addictions * Special chapters are devoted to the management of
youth with SUDs in the juvenile justice system and the
consequences, for the child, of maternal substance use during
pregnancy. Advances in research and clinical strategies make both
topics timely. * Three appendixes complete the book. The first
offers resources for screening and assessment tools, the second
provides a select list of websites for parents who are seeking
advice and resources about drug prevention and intervention, and
the third lists websites containing general information about
self-help, including how to find local AA or NA meetings. Emerging
research on developmental psychopathology and adolescent
development has implications for how we view current prevention,
intervention, and treatment paradigms, and Clinical Manual of Youth
Addictive Disorders is indispensable in helping the reader
understand and implement effective strategies for these patients
and their families.
