Abstract Details

2008, Doctor of Philosophy (PhD), Ohio University, Counselor Education (Education).
This study investigated certain demographic and treatment variables. The sample used included 125 successful completers of a residential substance abuse program with an average length of stay of 60 days. The program is located in Athens County, OH and serves adult women and allows them the opportunity to participate in treatment with their children. The research question asked in this study was: Is there a relationship between or among residential substance abuse treatment outcomes and selected demographic and treatment variables (i.e., housing status, education level, income level, single substance abuse diagnosis versus dual diagnosis, parent/child/pregnant participation/residence in treatment and employment status at the time of residential substance abuse treatment admission)? The results of this study indicated that pretreatment employment status was the only significant variable of those included in this study that is significant to treatment outcomes.
