PAMI: Promoting Awareness of Motivational Incentives: Focus on founding principles and an implementation checklist.

This presentation provides an overview of motivational incentives, with a focus on the Promoting Awareness of Motivational Incentives (PAMI) Blending Team Product and practical methods clinicians can use to smoothly adopt MI in their organizations. Challenges of motivational incentive, including cost of incentives, on-site testing, and counselor resistance are addressed in detail.

The presentation ends with a description of Nancy Petry’s checklist on motivational incentive implementation procedures, taken from her Drug and Alcohol Dependence article published in 2000. For a copy of that article, please contact the CTN Dissemination Librarians.
