背景：二十年来，临床医生一直被要求在物质使用治疗入院时评估客户的优势。然而，鲜为人知的是，在这个人群中，可以使它更容易为客户接受有这种illustration.Objectives：本研究探讨了客户的优势和优势是否不同的背景特征和建设性的使用time.Methods：数据收集与验证的工具在治疗入院。物质依赖青少年（N = 195，52%女性，年龄14-17岁，30%少数民族），他们的法律的监护人，和入学辅导员完成了一个开放式提示客户的优势。确定的优势的定性反应按主题编码。单变量比较链接计数确定的优势和patient characteristics.Results：青年有三个确定的优势（SD = 1.99）在入院时的平均值，和9%没有确定任何优势。人际关系优势最普遍（73%），其次是一般智力（45%）和毅力（31%）。女性性别，没有一个父母与高中文凭，麻醉品依赖，和连续几天清醒的持续时间较短，与较少的strengths.Conclusion：高度社交，勤奋，聪明的突出优势的样本。清醒的每一天都对应着更多确定的优势，这可能会鼓励那些早期恢复的人。确定优势可以帮助客户找到有意义的清醒娱乐，可能是女孩和那些父母教育程度低的人特别有用的工具。制定标准，使用确定的优势，在治疗计划和共识的优势分类是未来研究的主题。
Background: Clinicians have been required to assess client strengths at substance use treatment admission for two decades. Yet little is known about identified strengths in this population that could make it easier for clients to accept having this illness.Objectives: This study explored the profile of clients’ strengths and whether strengths varied by background characteristics and constructive use of time.Methods: Data were collected with validated instruments at treatment admission. Substance dependent youths (N = 195, 52% female, aged 14–17, 30% minority), their legal guardians, and admission counselors completed an open-ended prompt about client strengths. Qualitative responses of identified strengths were coded by theme. Univariate comparisons linked count of identified strengths and patient characteristics.Results: Youths had an average of three identified strengths (SD = 1.99) at admission, and 9% did not identify any strengths. Interpersonal strengths were most prevalent (73%), followed by generic intelligence (45%), and grit (31%). Female gender, not having a parent with a high school diploma, narcotic dependence, and shorter duration of consecutive days sober were associated with fewer strengths.Conclusion: Highly sociable, hard-working, and smart were prominent strengths in the sample. Each day sober corresponded with more identified strengths, which may encourage those in early recovery. Identifying strengths can help clients find meaningful sober recreation and may be particularly useful tools for girls and those with low parental education. Developing standards for using identified strengths in treatment planning and consensus on the taxonomy of strengths are topics for future research.
