Brief Summary: At discharge from outpatient treatment researchers will recruit 300 young adults and randomly assign them to recovery support as usual control condition or the Smartphone Addiction Recovery Coach for Young Adults SARC-YA experimental condition Participants in the experimental conditions will receive a smartphone a callingtextingdata plan and the SARC-YA mobile applications for the first 6 months post treatment discharge Experimental participants will 1 complete a 2-3 minute recovery-focused ecological momentary assessment EMA at 5 random times a day receive feedback on their current answers and provided access to behavioral charting of their past answers over time and 2 receive continuous access to a suite of self-initiated ecological momentary interventions EMI to support their recovery via tool box of coping tools apps related to getting support and apps related to maintaining a healthy lifestyle Data include standardized assessments urine tests mobile phone metadata EMA responses and EMI utilization The studys primary aim and hypothesis are

Aim 1 Test the effects of experimental assignment on the frequency of substance use

H1 Relative to the control group participants in the experimental group will have lower scores on the quarterly Substance Frequency Scale 3 6 9 months post- discharge
Detailed Description: At discharge from outpatient treatment researchers will recruit 300 young adults and randomly assign them to recovery support as usual control condition or the Smartphone Addiction Recovery Coach for Young Adults SARC-YA experimental condition Participants in the experimental conditions will receive a smartphone a callingtextingdata plan and the SARC-YA mobile applications for the first 6 months post treatment discharge Experimental participants will 1 complete a 2-3 minute recovery-focused ecological momentary assessment EMA at 5 random times a day receive feedback on their current answers and provided access to behavioral charting of their past answers over time and 2 receive continuous access to a suite of self-initiated ecological momentary interventions EMI to support their recovery via tool box of coping tools apps related to getting support and apps related to maintaining a healthy lifestyle Data include standardized assessments urine tests mobile phone metadata EMA responses and EMI utilization The studys aims and their associated hypotheses are

Aim 1 Test the effects of experimental assignment on the frequency of substance use

H1 Relative to the control group participants in the experimental group will have lower scores on the quarterly Substance Frequency Scale 3 6 9 months post- discharge Aim 2 Evaluate the extent to which the experimental effects are moderated by baseline substance use frequency H2 The Substance Frequency Scale Scores at intake will moderate the effects of experimental on the quarterly subsequent Substance Frequency Scale scores Aim 3 Test the extent to which the frequency of substance use mediates the effects of experimental assignment on other aspects of recovery including SUD symptoms HIV risk behavior quality of life mental wellness and days of school H3a Relative to the control group participants in the experimental group will have better scores on other aspects of recovery reverse of number of SUD symptoms reverse of HIV risk behaviors quality of life mental wellness days of school in the quarterly interviews H3b Higher Substance Frequency Scale scores regardless of assignment in a given quarter will be associated with worse scores on other aspects of recovery in the next quarter H3c Substance Frequency Scale scores in a given quarter will mediate the impact of the experimental assignment on other aspects of recovery in the next quarter Aim 4 Within the experimental condition determine the degree to which EMA responses eg use withdrawal craving negative and positive affect and EMI utilization predict the duration of abstinence to be done within experimental condition H4a The duration of abstinence will be negatively related to EMA measures of the recency of use withdrawal craving low self-efficacy to resist relapse increased negative affect and decreased positive affect H4b The duration of abstinence will be positively related to immediate and cumulative EMI utilization
