AB  - The aim of this study was to examine the effect of brief modified motivational 
      enhancement therapy (MET) on readiness to change patterns of 
      methylenedioxymethamphetamine (MDMA) and methamphetamine (MAMP) use behaviors in 
      adolescents. A total of 94 adolescents who used MDMA or MAMP were consecutively 
      recruited from a juvenile abstinence center; 46 received a three-session MET 
      intervention (intervention group), and 48 received educational materials only and 
      no MET intervention (control group). Analysis of covariance was performed to 
      examine the effect of motivational interviewing on the readiness of change scores 
      on the University of Rhode Island Change Assessment and on the scores of its 
      subscales. By using the pretreatment scores as covariates, the intervention group 
      demonstrated higher posttreatment scores of readiness to change and of the 
      contemplation subscale on the University of Rhode Island Change Assessment than 
      the control group. The results of this study support the finding that brief 
      modified MET is effective in promoting readiness to change MAMP and MDMA use 
      behaviors in adolescents who receive short-term treatment programs.
