Describe the process of cocaine addiction.
QUESTION 13 The Community Reinforcement and Family Training Approach (CRAFT) is derived from teachings from Al-Anon. It teaches family members how to provide positive feedback to the addicted member. It does not help family members dissociate from the addicted member in order to become independent. It is not geared toward the criminal justice system. QUESTION 14 Key themes of African American families of which the counselor should be aware are all except: a network of extended family ties, reciprocity in providing aid, the personal connection between family and therapist. Non-reciprocity regarding gift-giving is not a key theme. QUESTION 15 In situations of domestic violence, the counselor is advised by the text authors to refer the couple to conjoint counseling. They should also refer the violent partner to a batterers’ group. They should not mention domestic violence in screening; let the partner bring it up later. If children are endangered, they should not keep it confidential. QUESTION 16 Visitors who want to attend a twelve-step group in the community should attend an open meeting. They do not need to read the Big Book before attending. They do not need to ask permission of the group facilitator. They can go alone without a member of that group. QUESTION 17 “Cross-talk” in a 12-step meeting means giving advice or rebutting someone’s point. It does not mean talking across the table to someone else. It does not mean talking negative about a person or topic. It does not mean crossing the line on what is acceptable to discuss. QUESTION 18 A fundamental difference between AA meetings and 12 Step treatment models is that AA only requires monthly dues. The treatment models are not highly directive. AA meetings stress the voluntary nature of attendance. Compliance is not stressed in the AA meetings. QUESTION 19 The Twelve Traditions are guidelines for the functioning of the program in the community. They are not a historical perspective on AA. They are not an alternative to the Twelve Steps. They are still applicable to modern AA. QUESTION 20 The first step of the 12 steps of AA begins: “We admitted we were powerless over alcohol.” It does not begin with "Came to believe that a power greater than ourselves could restore us to sanity." It does not begin with "Made a decision to turn our will and our lives over to the care of God as we understood." None of the above options are correct.
