Résumé :
ENGLISH :
The article describes the experience in Ukraine with implementing standard instruments to evaluate the effectiveness of drug-abuse treatment. With the aim of moving away from a sole focus on length of abstinence and toward multiple dimensions for assessing success in treatment, three standard instruments--the Addiction Severity Index (ASI), the Symptom Check List (SCL-90) and the Risk Assessment Battery (RAB)--were translated, adapted and applied. Clients had to be paid if the full 2 h of questioning was to be completed. It turned out that full implementation is only possible in present-day Ukraine in special research studies. Instead, use is recommended either of a shorter set of questions used in the ASI composite scores, or of the clinician's own questions to assess the dimensions covered in the ASI.
