Abstract
Although spirituality is considered critical in alcohol use treatment and recovery, its precise role is uncertain. The present study used data from a study of adult African American alcohol treatment outpatients, featuring assessment of four constructs of spirituality. The analysis examined whether these were related to treatment retention and three-month outcomes. Results indicated that spirituality was weakly related to retention and outcomes, though qualitative information suggested it was important to study subjects. Further research is needed to refine the measurement of spirituality in treatment populations and across racial/ ethnic subgroups.
