The literature reporting on aspects of ego functioning and psychopathology among narcotics and polydrug dependent individuals is reviewed. Data are presented which indicate impairment in ego functioning and evidence of considerable psychopathology in three groups of drug-dependent individuals entering an inpatient detoxification/treatment unit. The data support the view that drug misuse of any sort does not result in a homogeneous group. The Psychiatric Status Schedule of Spitzer and Endicott was the instrument used in gathering the data. Recommendations for discriminate thinking in diagnostic evaluation and treatment planning for any drug-dependent individuals are made.
本文回顾了关于麻醉品和多种药物依赖个体的自我功能及精神病理学方面的文献。文中呈现的数据表明，三组进入住院戒毒/治疗单元的药物依赖个体存在自我功能损害及相当程度精神病理学的证据。这些数据支持了这样一种观点，即任何形式的药物滥用并不会导致一个同质化的群体。斯皮策和恩迪科特的《精神状态检查表》是收集数据时所使用的工具。文中针对任何药物依赖个体的诊断评估和治疗规划中的区别性思考提出了建议。
