abstract="The relationship between psychosocial status and alcohol and drug use at 12-month follow-up was evaluated for clients of two addictions treatment programs (90 treated for alcohol; 51 for drugs or drugs and alcohol). Psychosocial status at follow-up was mostly unrelated to alcohol use among clients who were not using drugs prior to treatment. Among drug users, returning to both alcohol and drug use was strongly associated with poorer psychosocial status, with partial correlational analyses indicating that (a) drug use was the main factor associated with poorer status and (b) poorer status was likely a consequence rather than a precursor of drug use. The implications of these findings are discussed.<p /><p>Language: en</p>",
