Abstract

The purpose of this quasi-experimental research was to investigate the effects of the Motivation Enhancement Therapy Program with family involvement (METF) on the medication adherence of inpatients with co-occurring schizophrenia and alcohol use disorder. The sample included fifty-six inpatients with co-occurring schizophrenia and alcohol use disorder, aged between 20 and 59 years, and assigned to the experimental and control group, with 26 subjects in each group. The experimental group received six sessions of the Motivation Enhancement Therapy Program with family involvement, 45-60 minutes each session for four weeks. The research instruments consisted of the following: 1) the Motivation Enhancement Therapy Program with family involvement; 2) stage of change assessments; 3) a medication compliance questionnaire; and 4) a motivation questionnaire. All of the instruments were validated for content validity by professionals. The reliability of the instruments with Chronbach’s alpha coefficients was .81, .81, and .84. The data were analyzed using descriptive statistics and t-test. The findings were as follows: 1) The medication adherence of co-occurring schizophrenia and alcohol use disorder patients after receiving the group METF was significantly higher than before receiving the group METF at the .001 level. 2) The medication adherence of the co-occurring schizophrenia and alcohol use disorder patients that received the group METF was significantly higher than that of the individuals that received routine care at the .001 level.
