[Various principles in the psychological rehabilitation of alcoholics].
In recent-year literary publications dealing with the problem of alcoholism treatment the authors exhibit a revival of the interest of the patient's personality. The thesis on principal insufficiency of medicinal treatment only recognized now by most researchers leads one to a conclusion that the alcoholic's personality should be an object of a special study aimed at its subsequent correction. On the basis of a psychological analysis of the two known phenomena of alcoholism a hypothesis on the decisive role of the thought orientation in determining the essence of an alcoholic's personality is suggested. The author describes general principles and special approaches to the post-correction work with alcoholics. These principles and approaches are aimed at acting upon the alcoholic's personality by way of reforming its activity. General psychological aspects of the problem of correcting the alcoholic's personality are discussed from the standpoints of L. S. Vygotsky's school.
