Beck, Aaron T.; And Others
Journal of Clinical Psychology, v40 n2 p602-06 Mar 1984
Administered the Beck Hopelessness Scale to alcoholic (N=20) and heroin-addicted (N=20) women. Results indicated that although both groups expressed comparable levels of overall hopelessness, alcoholic women anticipated more success and better lives in the next 10 years than did the heroin-dependent women.
