This study was designed to test the hypothesis that an Individualized Assessment and Treatment Program (IATP) for cannabis use disorder (CUD) that utilized experience sampling (ES) data to individualize treatment would be more effective at eliciting adaptive coping responses in high-risk situations than a more conventional cognitive-behavioral treatment. It was further expected that increases in momentary adaptive coping, positive affect, and self-efficacy expectancies would mediate the effects of treatment on momentary drug use in the hours following a temptation-to-use episode.
