Abstract
Social influences (social support for alcohol or drug use and social support for abstinence) were examined in relation to abstinence self-efficacy among a sample of 250 justice-involved persons exiting inpatient treatment for substance use disorders. Hierarchical linear regression was used to examine social influences in relation to abstinence self-efficacy. Social influences were significantly related to abstinence self-efficacy when examined independently. However, only social support for alcohol or drug use was significant when both social influences were entered into the model. Findings suggest social support for alcohol or drug use compromises abstinence social support, particularly among justice-involved persons who are early in their recovery from substance use disorders.
