Subst Use Misuse. 1997 Aug;32(10):1395-404. doi: 10.3109/10826089709039385.
Although the number of females served in United States treatment programs for substance use has increased over the last decade, women continue to be underrepresented. This suggests that the prevalent treatment models, which tend to be male-oriented, may not provide appropriate strategies to meet women's needs. Substance use problems in women appear to be multideterminded phenomena in which genetics, familial history, psychosocial issues, and other environmental factors play contributing roles. Working from a relational theoretical model of female psychosocial development, a continuum of expanded services addressing the entire context of women's lives is discussed.
尽管在过去十年里，美国物质使用治疗项目中接受治疗的女性人数有所增加，但女性在其中的占比仍然较低。这表明，普遍存在的、倾向于以男性为导向的治疗模式可能无法提供满足女性需求的适当策略。女性的物质使用问题似乎是由多种因素决定的现象，其中基因、家族病史、心理社会问题和其他环境因素都起到了一定作用。基于女性心理社会发展的关系理论模型，本文讨论了一系列针对女性生活全貌的扩展服务。
