本文介绍了一种创新的新干预措施，专门针对已经滥用药物的老年人，但他们还没有诊断准备好接受治疗。这种干预的基本原则是利用吸毒青少年作为预防课程改编活动的“专家”。然后，这种活动成为他们基于不和谐的变化的机制。这一过程的目的是在吸毒青年形成物质依赖之前对其进行干预。基于社区的设计源于美国联邦资助的NIDA项目（国家药物滥用研究所指导研究科学家奖），该项目发现，进行方案调整的青年有效参与，活跃地讨论吸毒和酗酒的利弊。通过这项研究，人们认为，他们作为“戒毒者”的角色与他们自己的药物滥用行为之间的不协调导致态度和行为的转变。基于失调的干预措施已成功地用于各种疾病的积极行为改变，但尚未对滥用药物的青少年实施。试点研究的结果是共享沿着与未来的研究和干预措施的影响。
This article describes an innovative new intervention tailored to older youth who are already abusing drugs, but who are not diagnostically ready for treatment. The basic tenet of this intervention is to utilise adolescents engaged in drug use as ‘experts’ in the prevention curriculum adaptation activity. This activity then serves as a mechanism for their dissonance-based change. This process is designed to intervene with drug abusing youth prior to their development of substance dependence. The community-based design grew from a United States federally funded NIDA project (National Institute of Drug Abuse Mentored Research Scientist Award) which found that the youth who conduct programme adaptations were effectively engaged, animatedly discussing the payoffs and downsides of drug and alcohol abuse. It is maintained through this research that dissonance between their role of ‘Preventionist’ and their own substance abuse behaviours lead to shifts in attitudes and behaviours. Dissonance-based interventions have been successfully utilised for positive behavioural change with a variety of disorders, but have not yet been implemented with substance abusing youth. Findings of pilot research are shared along with implications for future research and interventions.
