EFEKTIVITAS KONSELING KELOMPOK DENGAN TEKNIK PENGKONDISIAN AVERSI DALAM MENGATASI PERILAKU ADIKSI

Abstract

One technique in counseling is aversion conditioning, which is used to change emotional
responses to harmful or undesirable behavior in behavior therapy. This research uses a one
group pre-test post-test design. A pretest was carried out on a group of research subjects, then
treatment was given, and followed by a posttest using the same measurements. The method
used in the research was observation, documentation and distribution of questionnaires to
clients at the Palembang Ar-Rahman Drug Rehabilitation Center Foundation. The calculation
results from the pre-test before the treatment was given were 60.53 and after the treatment
was given and the post-test was carried out the results were 124.53. So it can be concluded
that there has been an increase in the level of self-control of former drug addicts. The
conclusion of this research is that before being given group counseling using aversion
techniques, clients at the Ar-Rahman Palembang rehabilitation foundation lacked self-control
in overcoming addictive behavior. There was an increase in overcoming addictive behavior
after being given group counseling with aversion techniques to clients at the Ar-Rahman
Palembang rehabilitation foundation. There is a difference in the effectiveness of group
counseling and aversion techniques in overcoming addictive behavior.
