TMQ
The TMQ is a self-report instrument designed to measure motivation for substance abuse treatment and predict treatment engagement and outcomes. Developed by Simpson and colleagues in the context of the Drug Outcome Research Study (DORS), the TMQ assesses both intrinsic motivation (desire to address problems, commitment to change) and perceived barriers to treatment engagement. The TMQ is useful in addiction treatment settings to identify individuals with high versus low treatment motivation and to tailor motivational interventions accordingly.
