ABSTRACT
BACKGROUNDS The first step for the recovery of alcoholics is the formation of true insight which enables them to admit that they are alcoholic. This study was designed to analyze the changes in insight status by treatment programs. METHOD:
The subjects were 214 alcohol dependents who participated in the insight-oriented treatment programs for at least 1 week. Their insight status were measured through HAIS before and after treatment.RESULTS:
Of 214 subjects, 83 (38.8%) were in poor-, 103 (48.1%) in fair-, and 28 (13.1%) in good-insight before treatment, and 56 (26.2%) in poor-, 97 (45.3%) in fair-, and 61 (28.5%) in good-insight after treatment. Mean HAIS scores of the subjects were 5.35 (SD=8.33) before treatment and significantly increased to 9.00 (SD=8.04) after treatment. The magnitude of insight-improvement was negatively correlated with the HAIS scores before treatment in poor-insight group and positively correlated with the duration of participation in treatment in fair-insight group.CONCLUSION:
We confirmed the fact that the insight status of patients could be improved by treatment. It was also suggested that the therapeutic strategy needed an individual approach according to the insight state of a patient.
