A longitudinal analysis was conducted among a U.S. national sample of persons affiliated with Alcoholics Anonymous and Narcotics Anonymous living in self-run recovery homes (Oxford Houses). Categorical involvement in a set of 12-step activities (i.e., having a sponsor, reading 12-step literature, doing service work, and calling other members for help) and averaged summary scores of involvement were examined in relation to abstinence and self-efficacy for abstinence. Participants who were categorically involved in all 12-step activities reported significantly higher levels of abstinence and self-efficacy for abstinence at 1 year compared with those who were less involved, whereas averaged summary scores of involvement were not a significant predictor of abstinence. Participants' number of days in Oxford Houses, but not rates of 12-step meeting attendance, was significantly related to increased abstinence. Findings suggest that categorical involvement in a number of 12-step activities equip persons with substance use disorders with resources for ongoing recovery.
一项针对美国全国戒酒匿名协会和毒品匿名协会成员的纵向分析,这些成员居住在自我管理的康复之家(牛津屋)中。在与禁欲和禁欲自我效能相关的情况下,研究了一组 12 步活动(即有赞助商、阅读 12 步文献、做服务工作、打电话给其他成员寻求帮助)的参与情况和参与情况的平均综合评分。与参与度较低的人相比,在所有 12 步活动中参与度达到标准的参与者在 1 年内报告的禁欲率和禁欲自我效能显著更高,而参与度的平均综合评分不是禁欲的显著预测指标。参与者在牛津屋的天数,但不是 12 步会议出席率,与增加禁欲率显著相关。研究结果表明,在许多 12 步活动中的标准参与使患有物质使用障碍的人具备了持续康复的资源。
