摘要：Substance-dependent adolescents tend to experience relapses despite the psychological and medical
treatment they received. Factors associated with the relapses include ineffective therapy, lack of posttreatment
family support, and inability to prevent future relapses. This study investigates the
effectiveness of the Family-Cognitive Integrative Therapy (F-CIT) model in preventing relapses of
substance abuse among adolescents. There were ten participants randomly allocated into two groups.
The experimental group received F-CIT, and the control group received no treatment. The Adolescent
Relapse Coping Questionnaire used to measure the effectiveness of F-CIT model. The results showed
that F-CIT model improves the adolescent ability to prevent relapses and remain abstinence after
treatment. Thus, the additional of F-CIT model is sufficient to prevent relapses and improve
abstinence against substance abuse among adolescents.
