A technique called the "Interperception Matrix" was devised to investigate interpersonal perception in eight families in which addicted offspring maintained close parental ties. The addict families were compared with eight matched control families. Several differences were found between the two types of families. In addict families: (a) addicts, their fathers, and their mothers all held the addicts in low regard; (b) addicts were described as very different from their parents; (c) parents and addicts disagreed more in their perception of the addicts; (d) there was a consensus that the addicts' major flaws were passivity and dependence; and (e) the addicts' mothers described themselves as less agreeable and more passive. Addict families and control families were similar in their descriptions of an ideal for the offspring and in generally favorable descriptions of both parents. These results extend and partially validate clinical observations that social perception in addict families serves to perpetuate opiate addiction by undermining addicts' self-esteem. These data, in conjunction with new understandings emerging from the addiction literature, support an approach to addiction therapy based on reframing family perception.
一种名为“相互感知矩阵”的技术被设计出来，用于研究八个家庭中的人际感知，这些家庭中成瘾的后代与父母保持着密切的关系。将成瘾家庭与八个匹配的对照家庭进行比较。发现这两种类型的家庭之间存在一些差异。在成瘾家庭中：（a）成瘾者、他们的父亲和母亲都对成瘾者评价不高；（b）成瘾者被描述为与他们的父母非常不同；（c）父母和成瘾者在对成瘾者的看法上分歧更大；（d）大家一致认为成瘾者的主要缺点是被动和依赖；（e）成瘾者的母亲将自己描述为不那么随和且更被动。成瘾家庭和对照家庭在对后代理想的描述以及对父母双方总体上积极的描述方面相似。这些结果扩展并部分验证了临床观察结果，即成瘾家庭中的社会感知通过削弱成瘾者的自尊而使阿片类药物成瘾持续存在。这些数据，结合成瘾文献中出现的新认识，支持一种基于重塑家庭认知的成瘾治疗方法。
