In 62 individuals recovering from substance abuse, materialism and spiritualism and cognitive patterns were quantified, before (retrospectively) and after recovery with the Mathew Materialism Spiritualism Scale (MMSS) and a Cognitive Patterns Questionnaire (CPQ). MMSS was also administered once to 61 general controls. Recovering individuals showed highly significant prerecovery to postrecovery increases in spirituality on most subscales of MMSS and changes in cognitive patterns. Sixteen controls who met the criteria for alcoholism on the Michigan Alcoholism Screening Test (MAST-positive) were separated from the others. Prerecovery MMSS scores did not differentiate the recovering individuals from MAST-positive controls. However, the prerecovery MMSS scores obtained by recovering individuals were significantly lower than the scores obtained by the MAST-negative controls. On the other hand, after recovery, recovering individuals showed higher MMSS spirituality scores in comparison to MAST-positive controls. The only MMSS item that differentiated recovering individuals after recovery from MAST-negative controls was mysticism with the recovering group obtaining higher scores.
在62名从物质滥用中康复的个体中，使用马修物质主义-灵性主义量表（MMSS）和认知模式问卷（CPQ）对物质主义、灵性主义和认知模式进行了（回顾性）康复前及康复后的量化。MMSS也对61名普通对照者进行了一次施测。康复个体在MMSS的大多数子量表上显示出从康复前到康复后灵性的显著增加以及认知模式的变化。在密歇根酒精ism筛查测试（MAST阳性）中符合酒精ism标准的16名对照者与其他对照者分开。康复前的MMSS分数并不能区分康复个体与MAST阳性对照者。然而，康复个体获得的康复前MMSS分数显著低于MAST阴性对照者获得的分数。另一方面，康复后，与MAST阳性对照者相比，康复个体显示出更高的MMSS灵性分数。康复后能将康复个体与MAST阴性对照者区分开来的唯一MMSS项目是神秘主义，康复组得分更高。
