Motivation for Addiction Treatment-Hindi scale was developed as a 'generic' scale applicable across different substances of abuse. This 46-item self-report Likert scale was administered to 262 treatment-seeking men with a diagnosis of alcohol or opioid dependence as per International Classification of Diseases-10th revision. Factor analysis generated 15 factors that covered all 46 items and explained 63.7% of the total variance. Factors I (12 items) and II (6 items), reflected acceptance and rejection of the existence of the problem of addiction and the treatment offered and, explained 20.7% and 7.6% of the variance respectively. Test-retest reliability and measures of internal consistency yielded satisfactory results. While the whole scale but not Factors I & II differentiated alcohol and opioid dependent groups, Factors I & II but not the whole scale differentiated relapsed from non-relapsed cases at>6 month follow-up. With some limitations, this scale presents a new tool to assess motivation for addiction treatment in Hindi speaking population in terms of two global dimensions of acceptance and rejection of the problem of addiction and the treatment offered.
成瘾治疗动机-印地语量表是作为一种“通用”量表开发的，适用于不同的滥用物质。这个 46 项的自我报告李克特量表被用于 262 名寻求治疗的男性，他们被诊断为酒精或阿片类药物依赖，符合国际疾病分类第 10 版。因子分析产生了 15 个因子，涵盖了所有 46 个项目，解释了总方差的 63.7%。因子 I（12 项）和因子 II（6 项）反映了对成瘾问题和所提供治疗的接受和拒绝，分别解释了 20.7%和 7.6%的方差。重测信度和内部一致性测量结果令人满意。虽然整个量表而不是因子 I 和因子 II 可以区分酒精和阿片类药物依赖组，但因子 I 和因子 II 而不是整个量表可以区分在>6 个月随访时复发和未复发的病例。该量表存在一些局限性，但为评估讲印地语的人群对成瘾治疗的动机提供了一个新的工具，它涉及对成瘾问题和所提供治疗的接受和拒绝这两个全球维度。
