Development and Application of Key Techniques for Systematic Family Dynamic Therapy for Substance Addicts
Objective:To develop a set of family dynamic therapy that can meet the needs of drug addicts and their family members,through exploring the theory of systematic family dynamic therapy consistent with Chinese culture and applicable to drug control in China,evaluating the implementation effect,and finally to compile an operation manual.Methods:A total of 100 drug addicts were selected and divided into two groups,namely intervention group and control group.Group family therapies were carried out in the trial group only.In addition,another 30 households were selected and the individual family therapy was applied to each household in Yunnan Province.Self-designed general situation questionnaire,family attitude questionnaire and Self-rating Inventory of Systematic Family Dynamics(SSFD)were used to evaluate the effect of the therapy with Chi-square test or independent/paired sample t test.Results:The total score of SSFD and the scores of each factor in the intervention group were lower than those in the control group,and the differences were statistically significant(P<0.05).The total score of SSFD and the scores of each factor were compared before and after treatment,and the difference was statistically significant(P<0.05).There was a statistically significant difference in the score of family personal attitude(P<0.05).Conclusion:This set of family therapy for substance addicts has significantly improved the family atmosphere,improved the level of self-differentiation,and changed the system logic from a single model to a multiple model.The understanding of"symptoms"by families and individuals has also been enhanced,and it also helps to enhance subjective initiative.
