Abstract
Aim: This study aimed to test whether self-efficacy, interpersonal problems and psychological distress are significantly associated with substance use and if the factors associated with substance use are the same factors that are subject to change in treatment for patients with substance use disorders (SUDs).Methods: The sample consisted of 346 respondents, sampled from 16 treatment facilities for SUD treatment in Norway.Results and conclusions: Self-efficacy, interpersonal problems (sum-score and subscales) and psychological distress (sum-scale and subscales) were significantly associated with substance use.Clinical implications: The results suggest a gap between factors associated with substance use problems and factors that are subject to change in treatment.
