Abstract

Cilj rada je bio da se ispita uticaj psihoedukacije u terapiji lečenja zavisnosti od alkohola na početnu motivaciju i uvid, menjanje stavova o alkoholizmu i početak izgradnje novog sistema vrednosti. Uzorak je činilo 166 ispitanika (83 bračna para) koji su bili u jednogodišnjem tretmanu lečenja alkoholizma (muškarac alkoholičar) sistemskom grupnom porodičnom terapijom. Korišćen je upitnik o znanju o alkoholizmu. Ispitanici su testirani tri puta - na početku lečenja, posle 6 meseci i godinu dana. Dobijeni rezultati su potvrdili da nivo edukacije raste kroz tri faze lečenja, da motivacija prelazi iz početne u tzv. suštinsku, da se menja uvid i porodični sistem okreće funkcionalnijem modelu življenja Potvrđena je statistički značajna razlika u nivou edukacije između 1. i 3. faze porodične terapije. Smatramo da je psihoedukacija veoma značajan metod rada u lečenju zavisnosti od alkohola.

The main goal of the paper was to analyze the impact of psychoeducation in alcoholism therapy treatment on initial motivation and comprehension, change in attitudes to alcoholism, and beginning of creating a new value system. The sample consisted of 166 respondents (83 married couples) that had been involved in one-year systemic group family therapy alcoholic treatment (with the man being alcoholic). A questionnaire on knowledge about alcoholism was used. The respondents were tested three times - at the beginning of the treatment, after 6 months, and after one year. The results showed that the level of education had increased through three phases of the treatment, that motivation changed from initial to substantial, that the comprehension had also changed, turning family system into a more functional model of living. Statistically significant difference in level of education between phase 1 and phase 3 of the family therapy was confirmed. In conclusion, the authors argue for the importance of psychoeducation as a method in treating alcoholism.
