TORRES, Nuno y OLIVEIRA, Diogo. Vinculação e Sistema de Prestação de cuidados em dependentes de substâncias em tratamento. Adaptação Portuguesa do Questionário de Prestação de Cuidados. Toxicodependências [online]. 2010, vol.16, n.2, pp.3-14. ISSN 0874-4890.
Insecure attachment patterns and avoidance of intimacy in close relationships with parents, peers and partners is very prevalent in substance abusers addicts. It is important to understand the role played by regulation of intimate relationships, particularly attachment and caregiving, in the life trajectories, and in the success of substance abuse treatments and prevention programs. The present study comprises the Portuguese adaptation of the caregiving questionnaire in a sample of substance abusers in treatment. Participants were 116 substance abusers undergoing treatment in three Therapeutic Communities and two methadone programs, with a mean age of 36 years, and 72% males. Instruments used were the Adult Attachment Scale and the Caregiving questionnaire. The Portuguese adaptation showed robust psychometric properties. Results support the hypothesis of association between attachment and care giving systems in adults. Family dysfunction variables had significant associations with insecure attachment and poor caregiving scores.
