An Outcome Study Guidebook Does chemical dependency treatment work? It's a question asked by policymakers, insurers, patients, and clinicians alike. And until now, it's a question that treatment providers haven't necessarily been prepared to answer. Measuring Treatment Progress offers a step-by-step guide for treatment providers interested in designing and conducting outcome studies for their programs. Developed by a prominent national researcher from the Hazelden Foundation, which pioneered chemical dependency treatment programs, the guide features an overview of the latest research in the field, a host of ready-to-use resources, and tips for presenting study results. Author Highlights Patricia L. Owen, Ph.D., is director of the Butler Center for Research at the Hazelden Foundation. She holds her doctoral and master's degrees in adult clinical psychology and a M.H.A. degree in health care administration from the University of Minnesota.
