ABSTRACT
BACKGROUND:
Relapse among patients in substance abuse treatment has generated interest in identifying attitudinal factors that sustain recovery.OBJECTIVE:
To assess the relationship of attitudes toward approaches to motivation for treatment and Twelve Step beliefs.METHODS:
Dually diagnosed patients (N = 100) completed a survey assessing treatment attitudes, motivation, and Twelve Step beliefs.RESULTS:
Endorsement of medical services was positively correlated with motivation but unrelated to Twelve Step beliefs. Endorsement of religious services was unrelated to motivation but was associated with Twelve Step beliefs.CONCLUSIONS:
Patients may have differing perceptions regarding routes to recovery based on preferences for professional services or spiritual resources.
