Résumé :
FRANÇAIS :
Présentation de 2 nouvelles échelles et discussion sur leur efficacité et leur limite : - l'APS (Addiction Potential Scale), échelle de 39 items développée en opposant les réponses de toxicomanes aux réponses de groupes de contrôle normatifs et psychiatriques ; - L'AAS (Addiction Acknowledgement Scale), échelle de 13 items construite rationnellement et en tenant compte de la cohérence interne.
ENGLISH :
We introduce two new scales for assessing substance abuse problems with the Minnesota Multiphasic Personality Inventory-2 (MMPI-2) : the Addiction Potential Scale (APS), a 39-item empirically derived scale, developed by contrasting the responses of a large residential substance abuse sample with responses from both normative and psychiatric control groups ; and the Addiction Acknowledgement Scale (AAS), a 13-item-face-valid scale, constructed rationally and with attention to internal consistency. Covariation between the scales and joint effectiveness are examined. Finally, limitations for their practical utility are expressed, and considerations for future research are identified.
