title: MMPI profiles of cocaine-addicted individuals in residential treatment: implications for practical treatment planning.
abstract: The MMPI profiles of 268 clients presenting for residential treatment of cocaine addiction were examined. The results revealed clinically significant elevations on the Pd and Ma scales of this instrument. In addition, elevations approaching clinical significance were found on the D, Pa, and Pt scales. These results are discussed in terms of conducting treatment within the context of an Alcoholics Anonymous/Narcotics Anonymous framework, as well as the implications for relapse prevention planning.
