Abstract

Drug treatment is one of the most challenging problems faced by clinical specialists. This study aimed to investigate the role of Childhood Abuse, negative emotionality and Impulsivity in the therapy outcomes of Substance users; Emotional self-regulation was mediated. The method of this study was descriptive-correlational. The whole people with substance dependence referring to Ardabil centers of addiction treatment in the second half of 2019 comprised statistical population of this research. Two hundred and twenty people were selected from this population through multistage random cluster sampling and they were asked to respond to questionnaires of craving, Dependence intensity, relapse, Childhood Abuse, negative emotionality, Impulsivity, behavioral regulation of emotion. Data were analyzed using descriptive statistical indicators, Pearson correlation coefficient and structural equation modeling using SPSS 25 and Lisrel 8.8 software. The results of correlation coefficient indicated that Craving with a total score of childhood abuse, negative emotionality, impulsivity and their components has a positive relationship and it has a negative relationship with the overall score of positive behavioral regulation of emotion and has a positive relationship with negative regulation of emotional behavior. Positive behavioral regulation of emotion is negatively associated with the variables of childhood abuse, negative emotionality and impulsivity and negative behavioral regulation of emotion is positively associated with variables of childhood abuse (other than physical abuse), negative emotionality (other than Emotional sensitivity and worry) and impulsivity (P< 0.001). Model fitness indicators also confirmed the effect of childhood abuse, negative emotionality and impulsivity on therapy outcomes (cravings, Dependence intensity and relapse) by mediating behavioral regulation of emotion. Model mediated regulation of emotional behavior is a good fit. Given the role of childhood abuse, negative emotionality and impulsivity in predicting therapy outcomes for drug use mediated by behavioral regulation of emotion, the findings of the present study can be said to have the potential to inform about prevention and intervention programs.
