Summary
This research investigation was undertaken in an effort to discern possible differences between three comparative groups of methadone maintenance applicants on the basis of sample background characteristics, type of presenting psychopathology, and severity of psychiatric disturbance. The findings revealed a broad spectrum of psychiatric disturbance among the three comparative groups (Mexican-American males, Caucasian males, and females). More psychiatric disturbance was detected within the male samples. Over half of the entire population studied manifested moderate to severe psychiatric disturbances. The results of this research are discussed in view of the implications for rehabilitation, treatment planning, and staffing composition within a methadone maintenance program.
