Research of anticipation consistency in the families of drug addicts

Abstract

The article studies the influence of a family and of personal specific features of parents on the formation of anticipation inconsistency of drug addicts. A theoretical analysis of the concepts of the anticipation consistency, predictive competence, predictive abilities and stochastic forecasting concepts was carried out. The results of empirical research of predictive abilities (anticipation consistency) of drug addicts and their parents are provided, which was carried out within the anticipation concept of neurosogenesis by V.D. Mendelevich. It was stated that the strategy of parents forecasting is one of the factors of predictive competence formation with children. It was also revealed that a stable pathogenic pattern determining the maladaptive forms of behavior (including the dependent ones) exists in the families of drug addicts. © IDOSI Publications, 2014.
