Abstract
In order to identify factors associated with the coping styles of detoxifying alcohol and drug patients, the coping styles of 137 alcohol and drug patients drawn from three city, suburban, and rural rehabilitation programs were examined in relation to various indices, including depression and anxiety. The results showed that depression was a moderately useful predictor of wishful thinking — the highest coping style utilized by patients. The relatively infrequent use of problem-focused coping across a range of stressful situations suggests that alcohol and drug patients may benefit from therapeutic programs designed to train them in the use of problem-focused coping strategies.
