As duration and intensity of services decline, the treatment system's success in engaging substance-using clients in self-help (SH) will increasingly influence client outcomes. Clinicians play an important role in involving clients with SH, yet little is known about how referral decisions are made or about the referral process itself. This paper reviews clinicians' attitudes toward SH and their role in referring clients to SH, and identifies types of research needed to elucidate the referral process from both clinicians' and clients' perspectives. Such research can help enhance the number and outcome of referrals to self-help groups.
随着服务时长和强度的下降,治疗系统在促使使用毒品的客户参与自助方面的成效将越来越影响客户的治疗结果。临床医生在让客户参与自助方面发挥着重要作用,但对于如何做出转介决定以及转介过程本身却知之甚少。本文回顾了临床医生对自助的态度及其在将客户转介至自助项目中的作用,并确定了从临床医生和客户的角度阐明转介过程所需的研究类型。此类研究有助于增加转介至自助小组的数量并改善转介效果。
