Abstract

Amphetamine use is the most increasing trend in terms of drug addiction in Thailand, directly impacting both physical and mental aspects of users, as well as affecting families, society, and the nation. This quasi-experimental study aimed to investigate the effect of the multi-channel motivational enhancement therapy program on amphetamine use behaviors among persons with amphetamine use disorder. The sample group consisted of 32 individuals receiving inpatient treatment for amphetamine use disorder at the Nakhon Ratchasima Rajanagarindra Psychiatric Hospital. The research tools included: 1) a personal information questionnaire, 2) the Alcohol, Smoking and Substance Involvement Screening Test (ASSIST-ATS), 3) the Stages of Change Readiness and Treatment Eagerness Scale (SOCRATES-8A), and 4) the Multi-Channel Motivational Enhancement Therapy Program, delivered through three channels: face-to-face hospital-based rehabilitation, telephone-based rehabilitation, and community-based assertive rehabilitation. Data analysis was performed using descriptive statistics, independent sample t-tests, and paired t-tests. The results of the research revealed that: 1. The mean score for amphetamine use behavior in the experimental group in the four-week period after receiving the Multi-Channel Motivational Enhancement Therapy Program ( = 9.75, SD = 5.16) was lower than that before receiving the program ( = 28.63, SD = 1.78) with statistical significance (p < .01). 2. The mean score for amphetamine use behavior in the experimental group in the four-week period after receiving the Multi-Channel Motivational Enhancement Therapy Program ( = 9.75, SD = 5.16) was lower than that of the control group ( = 17.13, SD = 7.94) with statistical significance (p < .05). The results of this study demonstrate that the Multi-Channel Motivational Enhancement Therapy Program can enhance motivation and help reduce amphetamine use behavior. Therefore, it should be used to help people with amphetamine use disorders.
