Twelve-Step (TS) recovery utilizes spirituality to promote sobriety, yet there are no proven programs designed to facilitate spiritual involvement. We developed a seven-week behavioral spirituality intervention titled "Knowing Your Higher Power" for implementation along with usual TS care. Twenty-six participants from a recovery center enrolled. We assessed behavior at baseline, 7-week, and 12-week follow-up. The sample showed significant increase in spiritual involvement and beliefs over the 12-week measurement period and a significantly greater spirituality score in those maintaining total sobriety compared to those that relapsed. These findings encourage a controlled trial to determine if this work has efficacy for practitioners in substance abuse treatment.
十二步康复法利用精神信仰来促进戒酒,但目前尚无经证实的旨在促进精神参与的项目。我们开发了一个为期七周的行为精神干预项目,名为“认识你的更高力量”,以便与常规的十二步康复法护理一起实施。来自一个康复中心的26名参与者报名参加。我们在基线、7周和12周随访时评估行为。样本显示,在12周的测量期内,精神参与和信仰显著增加,与复发者相比,保持完全戒酒者的精神得分显著更高。这些发现促使我们进行一项对照试验,以确定这项工作对药物滥用治疗从业者是否有效。
