Abstract

The purpose of this study is to investigate the PAI profiles of substance abuse groups and to test the efficiency of diagnostic function of alcohol problems(ALC) and drug problems(DRG) scales. Mean profiles of normal adult, alcohol dependence patient, and drug offender groups were compared and typical profiles of these substance abuse groups were derived through cluster analysis. Discriminant function analysis was performed to examine the differential diagnostic function of ALC and DRG scales. In the mean profile of alcohol dependence and drug offender groups, ALC and DRG scales showed extreme elevation, respectively. Seven profile types were extracted from alcohol dependence and drug offender groups among which 4 and 3 cluster profiles seemed to represent each group. The hit rate of ALC and DRG classifying correctly for the normal adult, alcohol dependence, and drug offender group were 84.4%, 81.4%, 64.9%, respectively, and the overall classification rate was 77.5%.
