Abstract:
In order to develop the heroin abstainers' cue-sensitization questionnaire (HACSQ),and evaluate its reliability and validity,during March and April in 2006,the cross-sectional sample survey and cluster sampling were adopted among 939 volunteer participants who were heroin abstainers from 5 compulsive detoxification centers in China.The data were collected by the self-report ques-tionnaires.The reliability analysis included Cronbach's a coefficient,split reliability and test-retest reliability,while construction validity was analyzed in the light of exploratory and confirmatory fac-tor analysis.Based upon the exploratory factor analysis,4 factors were extracted,which were social emotion cue (SEC),direct implement cue (DIC),personnel cue (PC) and indirect implement cue (IIC),and they together explained 64.52% variance.According to the data,test-retest reliability coefficient and HACSQ.The adjusted goodness of fit index was 0.75.It was suggested that the HACSQ demon-strated good validities and reliabilities,and may be used as a reliable assessment tool for the cue-sensitization among the heroin abstainers.
