This dissertation in psychology looks at ways of §enhancing the health of drug users in prison. A new §screening instrument for drug use disorders is §presented, and separate prison studies evaluate §auricular acupuncture as well as cognitive-§behavioral treatment. An approach to treatment of §inmates with so-called dual diagnosis - drug use and §psychiatric disorders - is also explored in a pilot §study of long-term auricular acupuncture. The §empirical results are discussed within the framework §of recent findings on offender rehabilitation and §treatment for drug use. Based on perspectives of §risk management, "good lives" and existential §psychology, a new model for enhancing health among §drug users in prison is proposed. This work should §be of particular interest to practitioners, §teachers, researchers and students in the areas of §psychology, social work, criminology and addiction, §psychiatric and forensic medicine.
