A Comparative Study of Nonopiate and Clinical Patients: Implications for Education and Prevention
Kinsey, Barry A.; And Others
Journal of Drug Education, 5, 2, 141-150, Fall 75
This study examines the appropriateness of the preventive mental health model by comparing a sample of non-opiate drug abusers with a sample of psychiatric patients. Data indicate non-opiate drug abusers and psychiatric patients are similar, although the drug abuse sample shows small, but consistent evidence of greater psychosocial adjustment problems. (Author)
