两个态度量表测量的承诺,以禁欲为导向的治疗政策和不赞成非法药物的使用,来自90名工作人员在10个公共美沙酮维持诊所在澳大利亚悉尼的调查。验证性因素分析表明,这两个量表是有效的结构,内部可靠,并有较高的重测信度。这两个尺度的因素高度相关(r = 0.77),表明支持强制禁欲和限制维持时间的政策与个人不赞成药物使用高度相关。工作人员对美沙酮维持治疗的好处的了解与他们对禁欲政策的支持之间没有显着的相关性。
Two attitudinal scales measuring commitment to abstinence-oriented treatment policies and disapproval of illicit drug use were derived from a survey of 90 staff working in 10 public methadone maintenance clinics in Sydney, Australia. The two scales were shown to be valid constructs by confirmatory factor analysis and to be internally reliable and to have high test-retest reliability. The factors underlying the two scales were highly correlated (r = .77), indicating support for policies that enforce abstinence and limit the duration of maintenance is highly associated with personal disapproval of drug use. There was no significant correlation between staff's knowledge of the benefits of methadone maintenance and their support for abstinence-oriented policies.
