Decreased drinking and Alcoholics Anonymous are associated with different dimensions of spirituality
Reduced drinking influenced aspects of spirituality that have been shown to respond to experience and maturation. AA was associated with aspects of spirituality embedded in the 12 steps which have been shown to be responsive to learning and modeling. This knowledge has the potential to inform decisions about recovery options, and contributes to theoretical understandings of the nature of spiritual change over the course of addiction recovery
Predictors of Membership in Alcoholics Anonymous in a Sample of Successfully Remitted Alcoholics
This study identifies factors associated with Alcoholics Anonymous (AA) membership in a sample of 81 persons who have achieved at least one year of total abstinence from alcohol and other drugs. Forty-four were AA members, 37 were not. Logistic regression was used to test the cross-sectional associations of baseline demographic, substance-related, spiritual and religious, and personality variables with AA membership. Significant variables from th…
When a family member has a schizophrenic disorder
Viewing individuals with schizophrenic disorders within a family life-cycle context promotes recognition of the range of family roles, particularly partnership and parenting roles, in clients' lives. Knowledge of clients' stage of family development allows practitioners to view the client more holistically--as a family member with roles and responsibilities--instead of as an isolated, ill individual. Gender differences--in family roles and in man…
Causal attributions about mental illness
The relationship between causal attributions about mental illness and family functioning was investigated in 39 individuals with chronic mental illness and their families. Among parents and siblings, poor family functioning was associated with attribution to a person as the cause of the illness. Unexpectedly, no relationship was found between family functioning and causal attributions to genetics, biology, God, or chance
Implications of the Pre/Post/Then Design for Evaluating Social Group Work
Pre/post designs that rely on self-report measures are potentially contaminated by response shift bias, a change in respondents' understanding of the phenomena being measured between the pre- and posttests. Retrospective pretests, or then tests, have been shown to be useful in identifying response shifts. Pre/post/then designs are highly utilitarian designs that have the potential of providing more accurate assessments of respondent change. This …
An Analysis of the Implementation of Single-Case Evaluation by Practitioners
The adoption of single-case evaluation by practitioners is analyzed using the literature on the implementation of human service innovations. Factors associated with successful implementation are contrasted with efforts to implement single-case evaluation. Issues relevant to the innovation itself include the design process, the degree of development of the innovation, its adequacy and preparedness, and the user's costs and benefits. Knowledge of u…
