Svanum, Soren; McAdoo, William George
Journal of Consulting and Clinical Psychology, v57 n2 p222-26 Apr 1989
Persons who underwent residential treatment for chemical dependency were identified as three-month treatment failures (N=52) or successes (N=52). Subjects were matched on Minnesota Multiphasic Personality Inventory (MMPI) scores. Found posttreatment depression, anxiety, and sleep problems strongly related to failure among psychiatric MMPI group; failure to engage in aftercare was associated with failure among near-normal MMPI group.
