The development of the Client Problem Profile and Index are described, and initial concurrent and predictive validity data are presented for a sample of 547 patients in outpatient methadone treatment. Derived from the TCU Brief Intake for drug treatment admissions, the profile covers 14 problem areas related to drug use (particularly cocaine, heroin/opiate, marijuana, other illegal drugs, and multiple drug use), HIV risks, psychosocial-functioning, health, employment, and criminality. Analyses of predictive validity show the profile and its index (number of problem areas) were significantly related to therapeutic engagement, during-treatment performance, and posttreatment follow-up outcomes. Low moderate to high moderate effect sizes were observed in analyses of the index's discrimination.
描述了客户问题概况和指数的开发过程,并给出了547名门诊美沙酮治疗患者样本的初始同时效度和预测效度数据。该概况源自用于药物治疗入院的德克萨斯基督教大学简短摄入量评估,涵盖了与药物使用(特别是可卡因、海洛因/阿片类药物、大麻、其他非法药物和多种药物使用)、艾滋病毒风险、心理社会功能、健康、就业和犯罪相关的14个问题领域。预测效度分析表明,该概况及其指数(问题领域数量)与治疗参与度、治疗期间表现和治疗后随访结果显著相关。在指数的区分度分析中观察到了低中度到高中度的效应量。
