| Abstract | This study examined and sought to clarify several major issues related to Adult Children of Alcoholics (ACA) and the notion that they are at increased risk for developing problems with alcohol. The study involved a questionnaire survey of randomly selected university counseling centers in regard to a variety of ACA issues. A total of 102 questionnaires were completed for a return rate of 51%. The questionnaire contained four sections requesting information on: ACA treatment opportunities on campus; information on ACA counseling staff; staff perceptions on the accuracy of Woititz's 13 ACA characteristics; and staff perceptions on the successfulness of their campus' ACA treatments. The study also examined the use of commercially prepared ACA workbooks, most of which contain Woititz's personality characteristics. As a result of the study, college students were identified as appropriate subjects for future ACA research. Counseling center group leaders were overwhelmingly supportive of using Woititz's characteristics and most of them noted that they started ACA groups because of staff interest. Regardless of interpretations of the study's findings, ACA group leaders on university campuses are not conducting their groups in ways consistent with recent research on ACAs. Further research is recommended. Five tables present questionnaire results. (Contains 29 references.) (KW) |
