Is index used for constraint enforcement?

I'm using Oracle 8.1.7.

How can I determine if a given table index is required for enforcement of a constraint (e.g. unique or pk constraint)? Didn't find usefull information in USER_INDEXES or USER_CONSTRAINTS.

(Assuming the same name of index and constraint does not work since Oracle may use an existing index when creating an constraint and thus use different names.)
