Over the past 20 years, specialized programming for chemically dependent women has been recommended for improving psychosocial functioning and retention in treatment. This study examined the impact of a structured, six-week assertiveness and sexuality workshop for women at three community-based methadone maintenance programs. Results indicated that women who participated frequently in the women's groups (four to six sessions) showed greater increases in self-esteem and knowledge compared to women who participated infrequently (one to three sessions). In addition, level of participation was positively associated with length of stay in the treatment program after completing the workshop.
在过去20年里，有人建议为药物成瘾女性提供专门的项目规划，以改善她们的心理社会功能并提高治疗的持续参与度。本研究考察了一项为期六周、针对女性的关于自信和性观念的结构化工作坊，该工作坊在三个社区美沙酮维持治疗项目中开展。结果表明，与不常参加（参加一至三次）女性小组的女性相比，经常参加（参加四至六次）女性小组的女性在自尊和知识方面有更大程度的提高。此外，参与程度与完成工作坊后在治疗项目中的停留时长呈正相关。
