Evaluation of alcoholism treatment effectiveness needs to be based on the healthy goals that alcoholics themselves identify as important. This research uses ethnography and grounded-theory methods to develop a model of recovering alcoholics' goal progression. The author spent 28 days in a treatment center, engaging in all patient activities, and observed and interviewed 42 participants to determine what they wanted from treatment. The research indicates that recovering alcoholics' goals develop through four stages. Certain kinds of behavior must be accomplished for an alcoholic to move from one stage to another. Behavior that facilitates and inhibits goal progression is identified.
