Modeling addiction susceptibility in Secondary School Students in Shahrekord

Specialists and researchers in the field of substance abuse prevention prefer to assume the beginning of drug use in adolescence and base their plans on the characteristics of this period.This research was carried out with the aim of modeling the addictive potential based on perceived stress, life skills, family functioning, sensationalism and religious attitude of male students of the second secondary level of Shahrekord.The statistical population of the research included all male students of the second grade of Shahrekord secondary school in the academic year of 2017-2018, who were selected as a cluster sampling of 384 people, and the research questionnaires included addiction susceptibility (Zargar, 2015), perceived stress (Cohen et al., 1983), sensation seeking (Zuckerman, 1978), religious orientation (Allport, 1967), family functioning (Epstein et al., 2003) and life skills short form (Bahari Fard, 2011). Data were analyzed through path model and mediation regression.After modifying the proposed conceptual model, the fit indices indicate that the model is desirable (P = 0.337). In addition, it was found that all the paths drawn in the proposed model, except for the paths of sensation seeking towards life skills and perceived stress and the path of religious attitude towards life skills, which were removed from the model due to lack of significance, had the required significance (0.05). >P). It was also found that family function explained 18% of the variance of life skills, family function, religious attitude and life skills explained 22% of the variance of perceived stress, family function, sensation seeking, religious attitude, life skills and perceived stress on each other accounted for 35% of the variance. They have explained the susceptibility to addiction. On the other hand, it was found that life skills played the role of a partial mediating variable between family functioning with addictive potential and perceived stress between religious attitude and addictive potential (P<0.01).
