| Resumo: | Abstract This paper aims to identify contextual factors that characterize alcohol dependence phenotypes. Participants were alcohol dependent men and women recruited from an out-patient treatment program. The Inventory of Drug-Taking Situations (IDTS) was used to assess the propensity to drink in high-risk situations over the past year. The patients also completed other measures of alcohol consumption, namely frequency and craving. A correlational and comparative study was planned to assess high-risk situations for alcohol use among two types of addiction. We found that there are significant differences in relapse risk factors for alcohol consumption when comparing poly-addicted and “pure” alcohol dependents. Comparative analysis showed that scores in “pleasant emotions”, “pleasant times with others” and “social pressure to use” were significantly higher among the poly-addicted alcohol dependent patients. Our data suggested that because poly-addicted patients are exposed to an alternative positive reinforcement mediated by drugs (in addition to alcohol), this can be particularly relevant to define high-risk situations. Skills training that focus on dealing effectively with high-risk situations should consider different subgroup profiles of pathological drinking decisions. |
