Spiritual Awakening in 12-Step Recovery: Impact Among Residential Aftercare Residents.
Spiritually-based interventions in the form of 12-step programs are frequently offered as a part of substance use treatment programs in the United States. Programs based in the 12 steps guarantee that by working their program, an individual will undergo a process of transformation labeled a spiritual awakening. However, the impact of this experience on recovery factors and treatment adherence is unclear. The current study investigated adult residents (n = 115) who experienced a spiritual awakening attributed to 12-step group affiliation during their stay at residential aftercare facilities for substance use disorder. Self-efficacy and hope were greater for individuals who experienced a spiritual awakening versus those persons who did not experience awakening. Awakening was associated with greater affiliation to AA and decreased negative exit from the facility. Results revealed the potential for an awakening to improve treatment behavior and outcomes in a residential environment, as well as benefit an individual's personal recovery resources. Further theoretical and clinical implications are discussed.
期刊介绍:
Spirituality in Clinical Practice ® (SCP) is a practice-oriented journal that encompasses spiritually-oriented psychotherapy and spirituality-sensitive cultural approaches to treatment and wellness. SCP is dedicated to integrating psychospiritual and other spiritually-oriented interventions involved in psychotherapy, consultation, coaching, health, and wellness. SCP provides a forum for those engaged in clinical activities to report on — and dialogue about — their activities to inform treatment models and future research initiatives. SCP fosters original scientific development in the field by highlighting actual and potential professional applications of spirituality in clinical practice. SCP seeks to initiate research questions through clinical insight and to introduce practice approaches supported or guided by existing research. SCP welcomes application of models from the related fields of medicine, integrative medicine, biology, neuroscience, ethnology, anthropology, and natural sciences. Research articles are highly encouraged on clinical conceptualization or settings, including studies on models, processes, or treatment approaches. Treatment studies may include clinical trials at any phase; studies on feasibility, curative factors, strategy, process, efficacy, or effectiveness; and meta-analytic or mixed-methods studies.
