Personality, stress, and social support in cocaine relapse prediction

Open access
McMahon, Robert C.·2001·Journal of Substance Abuse Treatment

Abstract

This study identified prospective psychosocial predictors of relapse status and drug abuse severity in male subjects in the first year after residential treatment for cocaine dependence. Personality, stress, and social support measures from an intake assessment, and stress and support measures reflecting status during the three-month period prior to the one in which relapse was identified were used as predictors. A number of hypotheses were confirmed. Detached personality and stress predicted both cocaine relapse and outcome drug abuse severity. Perceived social support quality and social network size predicted cocaine relapse. Implications for relapse prevention are presented.

  • About 33% sustained abstinence in those treated for CUD within 1 year after treatment discharge.

    “and about 33% sustained abstinence in those treated for CUD (93).”

    From Clinical management of psychostimulant withdrawal: review of the evidence (2023) · cites this paper as [93]

    Section 2.1 describes patients treated for cocaine dependence and followed for 12 months after discharge. Section 2.4 reports that 123 of 295 analyzed participants (about 42%) reported little or no cocaine use throughout follow-up, not that about 33% sustained complete abstinence. The one-year follow-up is supported, but the percentage and stricter abstinence claim are not. (LLM, conf=0.83)

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
