Abstract
Seventy-nine inpatients in a hospital-based alcoholism treatment unit completed questionnaires which were designed to measure the significance of attitudes, social normative beliefs, personal normative beliefs and motivation to comply, on the intention to remain abstinent from alcohol or other mood-altering drugs for 90 days following treatment. The data was separated by category; total population, women only, men only, drug dependent only, alcohol dependent only, and analyzed using multiple regression equations. The following results were noted: behavioral intention was significantly correlated with attitude for all groups; social normative belief was more significant for drug dependent patients than for alcohol dependent patients; social normative belief was statistically significant for female patients but not for male patients.
