Abstract
Aim: Substance abuse has been an increasingly common entity among youth, that has turned into one of the major concerns for almost all countries in the world. This study aimed to evaluate the efficiency of inpatient and outpatient treatment practises for adolescent diagnosed with susbtance use disorder (SUD).
Methods: Participants included 30 adolescents with SUD in the outpatient unit, 30 in the inpatient unit, and a control group of 30 adolescents without psychiatric diagnoses. Measurements were taken at the beginning and end of an 8-week treatment program using CGAS and HoNOSCA scales.
Results: The 8-week treatment program significantly improved overall functioning and reduced psychiatric symptoms, with greater improvements observed in the inpatient group.
Conclusion: Inpatient treatment resulted in better overall functioning and symptom improvement in adolescents with SUD. Long-term follow-up studies are needed.
期刊介绍：
The Journal of Ethnicity in Substance Abuse presents rigorous new studies and research on ethnicity and cultural variation in alcohol, tobacco, licit and illicit forms of substance use and abuse. The research is drawn from many disciplines and interdisciplinary areas in the social and behavioral sciences, public health, and helping professions. The Journal of Ethnicity in Substance Abuse is an international forum for identification of emergent and culturally diverse substance use and abuse trends, and the implementation of culturally competent strategies in harm reduction, individual, group, and family treatment of substance abuse. The Journal systematically investigates the beliefs, attitudes, and values of substance abusers, searching for the answers to the origins of drug use and abuse for different ethnic groups. The Journal publishes research papers, review papers, policy commentaries, and conference proceedings. The Journal welcomes submissions from across the globe, and strives to ensure efficient review and publication outcomes.
