Abstract:
In a follow-up study of 98 heroin addicts staying in a therapeutic community for different periods of time the effectiveness of involving family members in the group therapy was investigated. In subjects who terminated the treatment programme prematurely on their own the length of abstinence was linked to the frequency of parental attendance at group therapy.
