3 Certification Exam Understanding the High-Functioning Alcoholic By Sarah Allen Benton Select a response for each question below. 1. Alcohol remains the most heavily abused substance by America's youth. 2. High functioning alcoholics often set drinking patterns and arrange their lives so that their problem can remain hidden for years. 3. Alcoholics in general tend to constantly search for ways to make their lives more exciting. 4. Society and the media do not glorify drinking. 5. High functioning alcoholics can drink without any overt consequences.
4 6. Male high functioning alcoholics tend to drink more because of relationship issues. 7. The American Psychiatric Association reports that one of the biggest controversies of the 1990s in the U.S. alcohol treatment field involved the Moderation Management movement. 8. Being sober and being in recovery are the same. 9. After examining varying perspectives, it is clear that there are many paths to recovery. 10. In the SMART Recovery program, addictive behavior is viewed as a maladaptive habit rather than a disease. 11. In the SMART Recovery program, the word "alcoholic" is not used. 12. Most high functioning alcoholics do not report that their families were in denial of their alcoholism. 13. The alcoholic often chooses alcohol over his or her friends, loved ones and children.
5 14. Sober alcoholics do not fear sharing their inventories with another person. 15. Telling the truth can actually bring relief. 16. Long-term recovery is different for each individual. 17. A characteristic of long-term recovery is that being sober does not decrease alcohol cravings. 18. Although extensive addiction research has been conducted, there is not just one established relapse rate. 19. Relapse is considered by many to be part of recovery from an addiction. You have now completed the exam. Please answer the following evaluation questions. Your answers do not affect your test score: 20. I have completed all the requirements for this home study course without any assistance from others. 21. The content of this course was appropriate for my profession. 22.
