Abstract
History of substance abuse is associated with increased opiate medication misuse independent of differences in reported opiate effectiveness. Self-attributions regarding opiate treatment related to need for higher doses, dose control, and addiction potential, may be important mediators of this relationship and interact with anxiety to produce heightened risk of opiate misuse.
