Abstract

Aims: To demonstrate the usefulness of a parallel latent growth curve model in co-addiction treatment research. Using data from a combined treatment study, cigarette smoking (target) and stimulant use (SU; secondary target) were modeled to determine whether (1) initial levels of smoking and SU were related to each other and/or change over time; (2) change in smoking and SU were related to each other and/or initial levels; and (3) treatment was related to change over time.
