This study was designed to document knowledge about Kuwaiti drug users and to investigate whether or not there is an association between their poor self-concept and high level of anxiety. One hundred and seven incarcerated drug users, 107 individuals serving prison terms for offenses other than drug use, and 107 "normal" individuals were included in this pilot study. The Arabic version of Rosenberg's Self-Esteem Scale and Spielberger's State-Trait Anxiety Inventory were used to measure the subjects' self-esteem and state-trait anxiety, respectively. The results documented revealed that there is a relationship between levels of self-esteem and anxiety in Kuwaiti drug user behavior.
本研究旨在记录有关科威特吸毒者的知识，并调查他们较差的自我概念与高度焦虑之间是否存在关联。107名被监禁的吸毒者、107名因吸毒以外的罪行而服刑的人员以及107名“正常”个体被纳入了这项初步研究。分别使用罗森伯格自尊量表的阿拉伯语版本和斯皮尔伯格状态-特质焦虑量表来测量受试者的自尊和状态-特质焦虑。记录的结果显示，科威特吸毒者行为中的自尊水平与焦虑之间存在关联。
