Denial is a characteristic of alcoholism and other drug addictions that must be appreciated in order to understand the recovery process. The purpose of this field study was to describe the internal processes that alcoholics experience as they transcend denial. Grounded theory methods guided data collection and analysis. The author observed and interviewed 42 patients in an inpatient alcoholism treatment facility, then followed 30 participants over a 3-year period. Using the constant comparison method of data analysis, a basic social process theory of transcending alcoholic denial emerged. The theory has five progressive stages: reacting to the critical event; role disaffiliation; ambiguous anticipation; peer affiliation; and acceptance. The theory also elucidates consequences of unresolved stages.
否认是酗酒和其他药物成瘾的一种特征，要理解康复过程就必须认识到这一点。这项实地研究的目的是描述酗酒者在超越否认时所经历的内心过程。扎根理论方法指导了数据收集和分析。作者在一家住院酗酒治疗机构观察并采访了42名患者，然后在3年时间里跟踪了30名参与者。通过运用数据分析的持续比较法，出现了一种超越酗酒否认的基本社会过程理论。该理论有五个递进阶段：对关键事件做出反应；角色脱离；模糊预期；同伴认同；以及接受。该理论还阐明了未解决阶段的后果。
