An eighteen-item Addiction Belief Scale (ABS) was developed to assess strength of belief in the disease versus free-will model of addiction (alpha = .91). Factor analysis of the ABS revealed three dimensions to the disease-model controversy of addiction. These include beliefs regarding personal power (subscale alpha = .91, n = 274), dichotomous thinking (subscale alpha = .83, n = 285), and addiction as a way of coping with life (subscale alpha = .47, n = 286). A discussion of scale analysis and suggestions for application of the ABS as a clinical and research instrument are presented.
一个包含18个条目的成瘾信念量表(ABS)被开发出来,用于评估对成瘾的疾病模型与自由意志模型的信念强度(α = 0.91)。对ABS的因子分析揭示了成瘾疾病模型争议的三个维度。这些维度包括关于个人能力的信念(分量表α = 0.91,n = 274)、二分法思维(分量表α = 0.83,n = 285)以及成瘾作为一种应对生活的方式(分量表α = 0.47,n = 286)。本文还讨论了量表分析,并提出了将ABS作为临床和研究工具应用的建议。
