This continuation application takes its impetus from the significant findings of the current study, which reported the existence of a characteristic profile of quantitative EEG (QEEG) changes associated with cocaine dependence, and demonstrated persistence of this profile during six months of abstinence. Further, subtypes were found with distinctive QEEG profiles at baseline (5-14 days abstinent). Significant interactions existed between QEEG subtype, gender, comorbidity, and treatment outcome; A regression equation using a subset of QEEG baseline measures yielded highly significant (p
