Treatment motivation in alcohol dependents is usually viewed as a strong predictor of seeking treatment and treatment success. The conditions affecting motivation in alcohol dependence, however, has not been clarified. In this study, it is aimed to determine the effects of depression on treatment motivation in male alcohol dependence.
The present study included 34 male alcohol dependents presenting to outpatient clinics in Manisa Hospital of Mental Disorders and Hospital of Celal Bayar University. The patients underwent evaluation using the socio-demographic and clinical information form, DSM-IV SCID-I Clinical Version, Treatment Motivation Questionnaire (TMQ), and Hamilton Depression Rating Scale (HDRS).
A significant relationship was found between the total score of TMQ and HDRS (p=.039).
We believe that the present study, in which we examined the relationship between treatment motivation in male alcohol dependence and depression, would provide a significant contribution to literature. It is also important to investigate other factors that may affect treatment motivation in male alcohol dependence. Studies with larger samples are needed on this topic.
酒精依赖者的治疗动机通常被视为寻求治疗及治疗成功的一个有力预测指标。然而,影响酒精依赖动机的条件尚未明确。本研究旨在确定抑郁对男性酒精依赖者治疗动机的影响。
本研究纳入了在马尼萨精神疾病医院和切拉勒·贝亚尔大学医院门诊就诊的34名男性酒精依赖者。患者使用社会人口统计学和临床信息表、DSM-IV SCID-I临床版、治疗动机问卷(TMQ)和汉密尔顿抑郁评定量表(HDRS)进行评估。
发现TMQ总分与HDRS之间存在显著关系(p = 0.039)。
我们认为,本研究通过探讨男性酒精依赖者的治疗动机与抑郁之间的关系,将为文献做出重大贡献。研究其他可能影响男性酒精依赖者治疗动机的因素也很重要。关于这个主题需要进行更大样本量的研究。
