Currently the Narcotics Hazard Prevention Act does not see substance use as a genuine crime, but adopts a multiple-treatment approach to deal with it. The current study recruited 8 voluntary accused substance addicts who were referred by the prosecutor for deferred prosecution with condition to complete the rehabilitation group treatment. The group project was designed with related evidenced-based theories and intervention strategies. The group was done in a fashion of 2 hours for a session, once a week for consecutive ten weeks. After the group ended, the group members show that significantly increased perceived stress, motor impulsiveness, and negative self-efficacy; while significantly decreased self-efficacy. There is significantly positive correlation between perceived stress and readiness to change. The readiness to change is increased at the posttest but not statistically significant. The group members also show high degree of satisfaction with the group performance. The implications and further suggestions in terms of group program design, intervention research and related policy were discussed. |
