摘要:
AbstractHow positive and negative life events are perceived by drug abusers is nearly unexplored, yet attribution theory specifies ways in which such perceptions might differentiate drug abusers from nonabusers; it also suggests how attributions might relate to treatment effects and to rehabilitation. This study tested attributions about life events by drug abusers and matched controls as the drug abusers first entered residential treatment, and again later during treatment. Attributions about success and failure in treatment were also assessed. Results showed that attribution processes significantly differentiated drug abusers from controls and that those processes were related to ultimate rehabilitation outcome. Ways in which treatment might be made more effective by focusing on attribution processes are suggested.
