Opioid overdose is growing as a leading cause of death in the United States, surpassing other unintended causes such as automobile accidents. An increase in opioid overdoses nationwide in the past decade inspired public health authorities to declare an opioid epidemic nationwide. Assessing a person's readiness to change a substance abuse behavior has long been supported as a critical clinical intervention. The need for healthcare providers to efficiently and accurately assess treatment readiness in opioid users is examined. Literature regarding substance abuse assessments developed according to the widely accepted Transtheoretical model (TTM) is reviewed. Extant assessments of readiness to change and processes of change per the TTM are described. Rationale is provided for developing two quantitative assessments adapted from validated measures of TTM constructs: The Opioid Use Readiness for Change Questionnaire (RCQ-OP) and The Opioid Use Process of Change Questionnaire (PCQ-OP). The use of these two measures together is identified as a resource for healthcare providers seeking to identify opioid users' readiness to change and related processes of change simultaneously. The two measures were completed by 300 adult patients of a methadone clinic in the Northeast US in treatment for opioid use disorder. Through Principal Components Analysis, the RCQ-OP scale retained 12 items that loaded on three factors and the PCQ-OP scale retained 20 items that loaded onto three factors. Correlation analysis examined whether relationships between the Stages of Change and Processes of Change, as measured in this sample, were consistent with extant TTM research conducted primarily on tobacco users. Implications and directions for future research are discussed.
