六十二名寻求大麻依赖治疗的人完成了全面评估。将社会人口统计学、物质使用、心理社会功能、精神症状和医疗状况与从 70 名寻求治疗的可卡因依赖者收集的类似数据进行比较。两组均观察到严重的社会心理和精神问题。一般来说,大麻组报告的物质使用史和一系列损害与可卡因组相当。然而,他们表现出不太严重的依赖性。与可卡因组相比,大麻组对于停止使用可卡因更加矛盾,也更没有信心。这些发现表明寻求治疗的大麻依赖个体表现出严重的问题,需要进一步努力为这一人群开发有效的治疗方法。
Sixty-two individuals seeking treatment for marijuana dependence completed a comprehensive assessment. Sociodemographics, substance use, psychosocial functioning, psychiatric symptoms, and medical status were compared with similar data collected from 70 treatment-seeking, cocaine-dependent individuals. Substantial psychosocial and psychiatric problems were observed in both groups. In general, the marijuana group reported substance-use histories and a range of impairment comparable with the cocaine group; however, they showed less severe dependence. The marijuana group was more ambivalent and less confident about stopping their marijuana use than the cocaine group was about stopping their cocaine use. These findings indicate that treatment-seeking, marijuana-dependent individuals exhibit substantial problems and that further efforts to develop effective treatments for this population are warranted.
