Drug assertiveness skills have been demonstrated to be effective in reducing substance use behaviors among patients with alcohol or heroin use disorders. This study examined the association between drug assertiveness and methamphetamine use, psychological factors, and sexual risk behaviors in a sample of 250 HIV-positive men who have sex with men enrolled in a safer sex intervention in San Diego, CA. Less assertiveness in turning down drugs was associated with greater frequency and larger amounts of methamphetamine use, lower self-esteem, higher scores on a measure of sexual sensation seeking, and greater attendance at risky sexual venues. These data suggest that drug assertiveness training should be incorporated into drug abuse treatment programs and other risk reduction interventions for methamphetamine users.
药物自信技能已被证明在减少酒精或海洛因使用障碍患者的物质使用行为方面是有效的。本研究在加利福尼亚州圣地亚哥参加安全性行为干预的 250 名 HIV 阳性男男性行为者中,考察了药物自信与甲基苯丙胺使用、心理因素和性风险行为之间的关系。在拒绝毒品方面不够自信与更高的甲基苯丙胺使用频率和更大的使用量、更低的自尊心、更高的性感觉寻求量表评分以及更多地出入高风险性行为场所有关。这些数据表明,药物自信技能培训应纳入药物滥用治疗计划和其他针对甲基苯丙胺使用者的减少风险干预措施中。
