note = "Funding Information: Although we were excited about the potential contribution that such a special issue of Drug and Alcohol Dependence could make, we were also concerned about the potential for conflicts of interest because of the inter-relationships among the editors, the journal and the sponsor of this issue. Dr Linda Collins, one of the editors of this issue, and Dr Robert Balster, the Editor-in-Chief of the journal, are both members of TERN. Dr Suzanne Colby and Dr Brian Flaherty have also been active consultants to TERN. The Robert Wood Johnson Foundation supports TERN, both substantively and financially, and has also provided financial support for the production of this supplemental issue, for which we are very grateful. All of us have received financial compensation for our time and/or expenses for our work with TERN. (Dr Richard Clayton, in an editorial, which follows this, describes TERN and its interest in the topics reviewed in this issue). Because our concern about potential conflicts of interest, our procedures for selecting and evaluating articles to be included in this special issue were arrived at very carefully. In the interests of full disclosure, we describe these procedures here. ",
