Measures of psychopathology among mentally ill chemical abusers (MICAs) were examined as predictors of levels of functioning in two types of community based, residential programs: therapeutic community (TC) and community residence (CR). Non-significant associations were generally observed between scales of psychiatric symptoms (e.g., depression, psychotic ideation, cognitive disorientation, and hostility) and counselors' ratings of the residents' capacity to meet the social and interpersonal expectations of the programs (e.g., personal care, involvement in interpersonal relationships, and development of work skills). The study suggests that individuals with moderately severe psychopathology can be successfully engaged in residential treatment, even in programs with relatively high expectations for interpersonal involvement and functioning, such as the therapeutic community.
对患有精神疾病的药物滥用者（MICA）的精神病理学测量结果进行了检验，以预测两种基于社区的住宿项目中的功能水平：治疗社区（TC）和社区住所（CR）。在精神病症状量表（如抑郁、精神病性观念、认知混乱和敌意）与咨询师对居民满足项目社会和人际期望能力（如个人护理、参与人际关系和工作技能发展）的评分之间，总体上观察到不显著的关联。该研究表明，患有中度严重精神病理学的个体能够成功参与住宿治疗，即使是在对人际参与和功能有相对较高期望的项目中，如治疗社区。
