Aspects of Personal Relationships in Heroin Dependent Young Men–An Experimental Study

Abstract

Summary The paper presents the results of Eysenck's Personality Inventory (30 cases), of the “Draw a Person” test (40 cases), of If rout's “Personal Preference Scale” (37 cases) and of card 6 BM, “Thematic Apperception Test” (53 cases) given to heroin dependent young men. no statistically significant differences were found in the extraversion‐introversion dimension. The individual addict could be either extra‐ or introverted. The finding of an American study in which the female figure wax drawn first by addicts in the “Draw a Person” test was not validated. On the Krout Scale the addicts scored significantly lower than “normals'” on the “masculinity” scale and significantly higher on the “feminity” scale but in spite of these trends their femininity score did not exceed the masculinity score as was the ease with homosexuals. The TA T stories were thematically different from other clinical groups and some showed preoccupation with death in an unusual way.
