  1. Notes. Likelihood ratio exact tests were used for categorical variables, and t tests for continuous variables. Percentages represent column percentages for the respective variable. Percentages do not total to 100 % due to rounding. – indicates a test was not conducted because a cell(s) had expected count(s) less than 5, and as such an asymptotic likelihood ratio exact test might not yield a valid test of significance. Tests for national origin were between Georgian and non-Georgian groups (collapsing the Russian, Armenian, and Other groups into a non-Georgian group). Tests for education status were between completed school, incomplete university/technical study, completed university/technical study, and further degree groups (ignoring the n = 6 participants in the incomplete school, student and other groups). Tests for employment status were between unemployed and other groups (collapsing the employed full-time, employed part-time, self-employed part-time, student and others into the other group). Test for marital status were between the married to main sexual partner, living with main sexual partner, and having a main sexual partner not living with him groups (ignoring the n = 4 participants with no main sexual partner). Missing data were as follows: 4 participants with no main sexual partner, leading to missing information on questions regarding number of years with main sexual partner and number of times main sexual partner used drugs in the past 30 days, which had 2 additional cases of non-response, and as such – in the Completed Treatment sample, 4 participants were missing data on number of years with main sexual partner and 5 participants on number of times main sexual partner used drugs in the past 30 days and in the Failed to Complete Treatment sample, 1 participant was missing information on number of times main sexual partner used drugs in the past 30 days; and in the RBT Condition, 2 participants were missing data on number of years with main sexual partner and 4 participants on number of times main sexual partner used drugs in the past 30 days, while in the Usual Care Condition, 2 participants each were missing data on number of years with main sexual partner and on number of times main sexual partner used drugs in the past 30 days, respectively
