Abstract (English): The aim of this study was to examine the association between social interaction variables and premature cessation of treatment, psychological adjustment and quality of life, as a function of co-existing diagnoses of personality disorders. The sample was composed of 95 individuals who commenced treatment for cocaine addiction. Of the sample, 53.7% had personality disorders diagnoses. The results highlight the relevance of addressing dysfunctional coping styles during early stages of treatment, especially coping styles linked to emotion processing as they associate with lower levels of self-efficacy, lower perceived quality of life, poorer psychosocial adjustment and higher risk of treatment dropout. These deficits are significantly more prominent in individuals with personality disorders, who present lower levels of self-efficacy, self-esteem, optimism, self-control and social skills.

Abstract (Spanish): El objetivo de este estudio fue conocer la relevancia y relación de variables de interacción social con el riesgo de abandono prematuro del tratamiento, el nivel de ajuste psicológico y la calidad de vida, analizando las diferencias que puedan deberse a la presencia de trastornos de la personalidad. La muestra estuvo compuesta por 95 personas que iniciaron el tratamiento por su adicción a la cocaína. El 53.7% de los pacientes presentaban trastornos de la personalidad. Los resultados evidencian la importancia de prestar suficiente atención en fases iniciales del tratamiento al estilo de afrontamiento de los problemas, particularmente al centrado en la emoción porque se relaciona con menores niveles de autoeficacia, calidad de vida autopercibida, menor nivel de ajuste psicológico y mayor riesgo de abandono del tratamiento. Estas deficiencias se observan significativamente más en pacientes con trastornos de la personalidad, entre los que se aprecian además menores niveles de autoeficacia, autoestima, optimismo, autocontrol y habilidades sociales.
