本文介绍了建设和初步评估的规模（酒精和药物后果问卷[ADCQ]）评估改变酒精或药物问题的成本和效益。ADCQ的成本和效益分量表显示出良好的内部可靠性（Cronbach α为0.90的效益分量表和0.92的成本分量表）。此外，ADCQ与受访者对实现其酒精或药物治疗目标的重要性的评级以及12个月随访时的饮酒情况显着相关。评估改变的成本和收益的措施似乎是有用的指标，客户的动机和预测成瘾的长期变化。
This article describes the construction and preliminary evaluation of a scale (the Alcohol and Drug Consequences Questionnaire [ADCQ]) assessing the costs and benefits of changing an alcohol or drug problem. The ADCQ's costs and benefits subscales displayed good internal reliability (Cronbach alphas were .90 for the benefits subscale and .92 for the costs subscale). Furthermore, the ADCQ was significantly related to respondents' ratings of the importance of achieving their alcohol or drug treatment goal and to drinking at a 12-month follow-up. Measures assessing the costs and benefits of change appear to be useful indexes of client motivation and for predicting long-term change within the addictions.
