有一个未知的,但非常大量的人谁经历过,并成功地解决了依赖酒精或其他药物。这些人把他们新的清醒和富有成效的生活方式称为“恢复”。“虽然这一术语被广泛使用,但缺乏标准定义阻碍了公众对这一主题的理解和研究,而这一主题可能会促进更多和更好的以恢复为导向的干预措施。为此,贝蒂福特研究所召集了一个由感兴趣的研究人员、治疗提供者、康复倡导者和政策制定者组成的小组,以制定康复的初步定义,作为更好地沟通、研究和公众理解的起点。在这篇文章中,康复被定义为一种自愿维持的生活方式,其特征是清醒,个人健康和公民身份。本文介绍了这一定义的三个要素中的每一个的操作定义,理论基础和研究意义。(C)2007年由Elsevier Inc.出版
There is an unknown but very large number of individuals who have experienced and successfully resolved dependence on alcohol or other drugs. These individuals refer to their new sober and productive lifestyle as "recovery." Although widely used, the lack of a standard definition for this term has hindered public understanding and research on the topic that might foster more and better recovery-oriented interventions. To this end, a group of interested researchers, treatment providers, recovery advocates, and policymakers was convened by the Betty Ford Institute to develop an initial definition of recovery as a starting point for better communication, research, and public understanding. Recovery is defined in this article as a voluntarily maintained lifestyle composed characterized by sobriety, personal health, and citizenship. This article presents the operational definitions, rationales, and research implications for each of the three elements of this definition. (C) 2007 Published by Elsevier Inc.
