The study aimed to investigate the mediating role of boredom in the relationship between cognitive abilities and addiction readiness in students.

The present research employed a descriptive-correlational approach using structural equation modeling. 200 students from the second secondary school in Khorramabad city were selected using a multi-stage cluster sampling method. The tools used in this research included the cognitive abilities questionnaire, the multidimensional state boredom, and the addiction readiness scale. To analyze the research model, the structural equation model was employed using AMOS 24 software.

The findings showed that cognitive abilities had a significant direct effect on readiness for addiction, and boredom played a significant mediating role in this relationship. Overall, the results indicated that the model had a good fit.

It is suggested that educational systems take steps to enhance cognitive abilities and focus on relevant and effective structures. This approach can help reduce boredom and potentially decrease susceptibility to addiction.

The study aims to the relationship between parenting style and mental health with addiction readiness of Kerman students. The present research is of a descriptive-correlation type and the statistical population included all male and female students of the secondary school in the 2nd district of Kerman in the year 1400-1401. Using Cochran's formula, 360 male and female students have been selected. The sampling method in this research is based on multi-stage cluster sampling. To collect information, questionnaires on readiness for addiction, parenting methods and mental health have been used, and Spss24 software applied for data analysis. The findings indicate that the level of mental health shows a significant difference according to gender, and according to the average obtained, boys have lower mental health than girls (p<0.05). There is a significant relationship between parenting styles and mental health of male and female students with readiness for addiction (p<0.05). Also, in the prediction of the effect of independent factors on readiness for addiction in male and female students, it is found that the variable of paranoid thoughts is the most important variable affecting readiness for addiction in both groups of student.

The present study aimed to compare addiction readiness components among adolescents with attention deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) and normal peers.

This research was a descriptive, causal-comparative study. The statistical population consisted of all male high school students aged 13 to 18 years in the city of Tabriz in the academic year of 2022-2023. A sample of 97 people (49 students with ADHD and 50 normal students) were selected using purposive sampling. The data were collected through the questionnaire for identifying people at risk of addiction. Data analysis was performed using multivariate analysis of variance test.

The results showed that adolescents with ADHD scored higher on the total addiction readiness and its components, including depression and helplessness, positive attitude toward substance, anxiety and fear of others, and high sensation seeking, than normal adolescents.

It can be concluded that the presence of ADHD symptoms increases the addiction readiness context and level in adolescents and makes them vulnerable to addiction.

The present research was conducted to determine the relationship between attention-deficit/hyperactivity symptoms and addiction potential in individuals with substance dependence by examining the mediating role of executive functions and emotion self-regulation.

The method of the present research was descriptive-correlational of path analysis type. The statistical population of the study was all men referring to addiction treatment centers in the city of Mashhad in 2019. A total of 200 individuals were selected using a multi-stage random sampling method. The tools used in this research included the Adult Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder Self-report Scale, the Addiction Potential Scale, the Emotion Self-regulation Scale, and the Deficits in Executive Functioning Scale. The data were analyzed using Pearson correlation and path analysis.

The results showed that attention-deficit/hyperactivity symptoms had a significant direct and also a significant indirect effect via the subscales of self-organization/problem-solving of the executive functions and emotion self-regulation on addiction potential. In sum, the results showed that the model had appropriate fit.

These results show that symptoms of attention-deficit/hyperactivity have an important role in addiction potential by affecting the executive functions of self-organization/problem-solving, as well as emotion self-regulation. These results can have implications for designing preventive interventions against addiction in vulnerable individuals based on strengthening executive functions.

The present research aimed to determine the mediating role of academic avoidance in the relationship between school security and addiction readiness.

The method of the present research was descriptive-correlational of the structural equation modeling type. The statistical population of the research included all male students of the second secondary school in the city of Khorram Abad in the academic year 2022-2023. Among them, 200 people were selected by multi-stage cluster sampling method. To collect the data, the School Security Questionnaire, the Academic Avoidance Scale, and the Addiction Readiness Scale. The structural equation modeling method was used to analyze the research model.

The results showed that the school security variable had a significant and negative direct effect on addiction readiness. In addition, academic avoidance significantly mediated the relationship between school security and addiction readiness.

In a secure school, students can be emotionally and physically safe, and there is mutual respect and trust between school members, while violence, fighting, mugging, crime, academic avoidance, and substance use are seen in insecure schools. Therefore, it is suggested to minimize the tensions by providing a secure environment at school and to increase the positive interactions between the students and the worry-free interaction of the students with the school staff in such a way that the ground is provided to reduce academic avoidance, the result of which can be reduced addiction readiness.

The present research aimed to investigate the effect of psychosocial empowerment on distress tolerance in students with addiction readiness.

The current study was of a semi-experimental type with a pre-test-post-test design with a control group. The statistical population of the research included all male students of art schools in the city of Chalus in the academic year 2017-2018. Among them, 40 people were selected using random sampling method and randomly divided into two experimental (n=20) and control (n=20) groups. The experimental group received eight 90-minute sessions of the psychosocial empowerment program. The data were collected through the Addiction Readiness Questionnaire and the Distress Tolerance Scale. The data were analyzed by univariate analysis of covariance.

The results showed that psychosocial empowerment had a significant effect on distress tolerance in students with addiction readiness, and significantly caused an increase in distress tolerance in the students in the experimental group compared to the control group.

It can be concluded that psychosocial empowerment plays an important role in increasing distress tolerance in students with readiness addiction and causes to increase distress tolerance in this group of students.

The current research aimed to investigate the relationships of family communication patterns and psychopathic traits with addiction readiness by testing the mediating role of moral disengagement.

The research method was correlational of path analysis type. The statistical population included the students of Bojnord Azad University (2640 people) in the academic year 2021-2022, which 200 people were selected by convenient sampling method using an online questionnaire. Instruments consisted of the family communication patterns questionnaire, the psychopathic traits inventory, the addiction readiness scale, and the moral disengagement scale. Pearson's correlation coefficient and path analysis were used to analyze the data.

According to the model findings, the direct effect of the conversation orientation variable on addiction readiness was negative, and the effects of the variables of conformity orientation, psychopathic, and moral disengagement on addiction readiness were positive. In addition, the mediating role of moral disengagement in the relationships of family communication patterns and psychopathic traits with addiction readiness was confirmed.

It can be said that the presence of problems in family communication patterns (low conversation and high conformity) and psychopathic traits can bring about addiction readiness for individuals. Moreover, if moral disengagement is high and is associated with these two variables, we can see a high degree of addiction readiness in teenagers and young people. These results are an important step toward recognizing the effective factors in addiction readiness, and by identifying these causes, appropriate treatment and preventive programs can be applied.

The present study aimed to predict addiction readiness in students based on self-control, emotions, and self-compassion.

The method of this research was descriptive-correlational. The statistical population included all students of Tehran universities who were studying in 2020-2021. Among them, 279 people were selected using convenience sampling method and responded to the addiction readiness, self-compassion, self-control, and emotions questionnaires. Pearson's correlation coefficient and regression analysis were used to analyze the data.

The results showed that addiction readiness in students had a positive relationship with negative emotion and negative relationships with self-control, positive emotion, and self-compassion. In addition, regression analysis results showed that self-control, emotions, and self-compassion predicted 67% of the variance of addiction readiness in students.

According to the findings of this research, it seems that professionals who deal with substance-dependent individuals and are present in their treatment process, can consider factors associated with addiction such as self-control, emotions, and self-compassion, and simultaneously with addiction treatment, take steps to upgrade the levels of these variables as well.

The purpose of this study is based on a Structural Equation Model of Emotion Regulation and Addiction Preparedness in Social Injuries with the Mediating Role of Spirituality dimentions.  

The leading research method is regression and in particular the structural equation model. The statistical population was students of Tehran universities from which a sample of 384 was selected. For data collection, Spirituality Questionnaire (2009), Addiction Readiness Scale (1992), Scale of Difficulty in Regulating Emotion (2004), and Risk Behavior Short Scale (2022) were used.

The results showed that the model of explaining social harms based on the difficulty of emotion regulation and readiness for addiction with the mediating role of spirituality has a good fit and also the relationship between emotion difficulty and high risk behaviors, and readiness for addiction and high risk behaviors through spirituality. It is significant because the significance level of the Sobel test in both is less than 0.05 (P <0.01).

According to the results of the research, it is suggested that group therapy and group training in the field of spirituality and psychology of religion be done to promote the spiritual dimensions of a protective and preventive factor for social harm or high-risk behaviors.

The aim of this study was to investigate the effectiveness of psycho-social empowerment on self-control in students susceptible to addiction to addiction.

The present study was quasi-experimental with a pretest-posttest design with a control group. Participants were students of vocational schools (two vocational schools) at Chalous in 2017-2018. First, the addiction readiness questionnaire was distributed to students of the two vocational schools to select samples. Then, the students who scored high on the Zargar addiction readiness questionnaire, 40 students were randomly selected and assigned to the experimental group (n = 20) and the control group (n = 20). The experimental group was presented with 8 sessions of one and a half hours of psychosocial empowerment program. To collect data, Zargar addiction readiness questionnaire (1385) and the revised Grasmik, Title, Brasik and Emklo (1993) self-control questionnaire were used. Data were analyzed by univariate covariance test.

The results showed that psychosocial empowerment was effective on self-control in students with susceptibility to addiction and psychosocial empowerment caused a significant increase in self-control in students with addiction readiness of the experimental group compared to students with susceptibility to addiction in the control group.

It can be concluded that psychosocial empowerment has an important role to increase self-control in students susceptible to addiction.

The aim of this study was to determine the effectiveness of solution-based therapy on cognitive self-control and mental well-being in mistreated women with addiction readiness.

The research method was quasi-experimental with pretest-posttest design with a control group. The statistical population of the present study included all mistreated women referred to the Welfare Center of Tehran province in 2020. To screen mistreated women with addiction readiness, the Zargar Addiction Readiness Questionnaire was used, and out of 200 mistreated women who filled out this questionnaire, 30 were selected with the highest score (cut-off point= scores above 54) and randomly assigned into the experimental (n = 15) and control (n = 15) groups. The participants in the experimental group received 8 sessions of a solution-based program. Data were analyzed using multivariate analysis of covariance.

The results showed that the solution-based therapy training had a significant effect on cognitive self-control and mental well-being in mistreated women with addiction readiness. Mistreated women with addiction readiness in the experimental group had significantly less cognitive self-control and more mental well-being in the post-test than those in the control group.

Based on the findings of this study, it can be concluded that the solution-based intervention is an appropriate way to improve cognitive self-control and mental well-being in mistreated women.

The aim of this study was to predict students' readiness for addiction based on emotional intelligence and empirical avoidance.

The research method was descriptive-correlational. The statistical population of the present study consisted of all students of Iran University of Medical Sciences who were studying in the academic year 2016-17. The sample size was 150 students who were selected by purposive sampling. The instruments used in this study were the Iranian Addiction Readiness Scale (Zargar, 2006), the Cyber ​​or Schering Emotional Intelligence Questionnaire (1990) and the Experimental Avoidance Questionnaire (Hayes et al., 2004). Data analysis was performed from the implementation of questionnaires through SPSS20 software in two descriptive and inferential sections (Pearson correlation, multiple regressions).

The results of statistical analysis showed that the effect of emotional intelligence variable and its components on the regression equation was significant (p <0.01). There was also a significant positive correlation between experimental avoidance and readiness for addiction (p <0.01).

The data of the present study showed that students with low emotional intelligence showed a higher readiness for addiction than students with higher emotional intelligence.

The aim of this study was to investigate the mediating role of coping strategies in the relationship between family communication pattern and addiction potential in the youth.

The present study was descriptive-correlational of structural equation modeling type. The statistical population of the present study included members of the Youth Organization of the Iranian Red Crescent Society in 2019. 595 people were selected by multi-stage cluster sampling. Research data were collected using the addiction potential questionnaire, the family communication pattern questionnaire and the coping strategies questionnaire. Data were analyzed by Pearson correlation and structural equation modeling.

The results showed a good model fit. In this model, conversation orientation (negatively) and conformity orientation (positively) had indirect and significant effects on the addiction potential. Problem-oriented strategies significantly mediated the relations of conversation orientation and conformity orientation to addiction potential. Also, emotion-oriented strategies significantly mediated the relationship between conformity orientation and addiction potential.

It seems that family communication pattern, along with other factors such as coping style, plays a key role in addiction potential and substance use and it is necessary to pay attention to these factors in prevention programs.

The aim of this study was to predict addiction readiness based on health literacy in students of Payam Noor University of Amol in 2018-2019.

This study was descriptive-correlational. The statistical population of the present study included all students of Payam Noor University of Amol who were studying in the academic year 2018-2019. A total sample of 118 male and female students was selected using convenience sampling method. The addiction potential scale and the health literacy questionnaire were used to collect data.

The results showed that there were significant negative relationships between addiction readiness and health literacy components (access, reading skill, comprehension, evaluation, decision making, and information use). Also, the results of regression analysis showed that the total score of health literacy could significantly and negatively predict 18% of the variance of addiction readiness. Among the components of health literacy, comprehension and decision making and information use could significantly and negatively predict 21% of the variance of addiction readiness.

It can be said that health literacy is one of the variables related to addiction readiness in students which should be considered in the prevention and treatment of addiction.

The aim of this study was to investigate the mediating role of stressful life events in the relationship between personality traits and addiction readiness.

The research method was correlational descriptive of structural equation modeling type. The statistical population included all substance-dependent women referring to addiction treatment clinics in Yazd in 2019-2020. Among them, 120 individuals were selected by convenience sampling method. Participants completed the addiction potential scale, the stressful life events scale, and the NEO personality questionnaire.

The proposed model had an appropriate fit. Neuroticism, agreeableness, conscientiousness, and stressful life events had direct and significant relations to addiction readiness. Also, stressful life events mediated the relations of neuroticism, extraversion, agreeableness, and conscientiousness to addiction readiness.

The result of the present study, in addition to explain the internal and external factors affecting the addiction readiness in women, can be useful for the prevention and treatment of addiction.

The aim of this study was to determine the effectiveness of life skills training on resilience in students with addiction readiness.

The present study was a quasi-experimental with pretest-posttest design with a control group. The statistical population of the study consisted of all secondary high school students in Malayer in 2015-2016. Among them, one school was selected as convenience and 300 students of this school were screened by the addiction potential scale. Then, 34 students who scored higher than the cut-off point and had high addiction readiness were selected and randomly assigned to the experimental (n = 17) and control (n = 17) groups. The participants in the experimental group received 12 sessions of life skills program. The resilience questionnaire was used to collect data. Data were analyzed using univariate analysis of covariance.

Findings showed that life skills training was effective on resilience in students with addiction readiness and this training program significantly increased resilience in students with addiction readiness in the experimental group compared to the students with addiction readiness in the control group.

Therefore, it can be concluded that life skills training has an important role in increasing resilience in students with addiction readiness and teaching these skills can increase resilience in students with addiction readiness.

The purpose of this study was to predict readiness for substance dependence based on studentschr('39') positive psychological states in 2017-2018.

This study was a descriptive-correlational design. The statistical population was students of Amol Payame Noor University who were studying in the academic year of 2017-2018. Among them, 118 male and female students were selected through convenience sampling. The drug addiction readiness questionnaire and the positive psychological state questionnaire were used to collect data.

Statistical analysis using Pearson correlation coefficient showed that there was a significant negative relationship between readiness for substance dependence with the components of positive psychological states including trust in God (r= -0/349), conscientiousness (r= -0/252), feelings of control (r= -0/312), positive mood and happiness (r= -0/291), relaxation (r= -0/185), and forgiveness (r= -0/188). The results of regression analysis showed that among the components of positive psychological states, trust in God was the strongest predictor of readiness for substance dependence.

Based on the results of this study, it can be suggested that by strengthening positive psychological states by emphasizing trust in God, the possibility of addiction in students can be reduced.

The aim of this study was to compare the emotional failure and Dark Triad (DT) in women with and without addiction.

The research method was causal-comparative. The sample consisted of 120 women (60 with addiction potentiality and 60 with no addiction) who were selected from among women between 18 and 45 years old in Ardabil city using available sampling method. The research instrument was Ross emotional failure Inventory (1999) and Johnson and Webster’s Dark Triad (DT) Questionnaire (2010).

The results showed that there was a difference between emotional failure and Dark Triad (DT) among women with and without addiction. Emotional failure and Dark Triad (DT) characteristics in women with addiction tend to be higher than women without addiction.

It can be said that women with addiction tendency, experience more emotional failure and Dark Triad (DT) characteristic.

Given the prevalence of addiction and its adverse consequences in society, there is a need to conduct research to identify the effective factors on addiction. The purpose of this study was to investigate the role of schema modes and dark triad traits of personality in addiction potential.

A sample of 120 juvenile offenders convicted in Ardabil prisons in 2017 was selected by convenience sampling method. The subjects were analyzed by Schema Modes Questionnaire and dark triad traits of personality questionnaires and Addiction Potential Scale.

The results showed that the factors of schema modes, antisocial personality, narcissistic personality and machiavellianismhad the highest effect on addiction potential with 0.478, 0.442, -0.353 and 0.331, respectively. This impact is positive for schema modes, antisocial personality, and Machiavellianism, and negative for narcissistic personality factors.

Although schema mode components and dark triad personality traits have an effect on addiction potential, but considering the impact coefficient, dark triad traits of personality have a prominent role in addiction potential.

The present study aimed to determine the associations of alexithymia and emotion dysregulation with proneness to substance dependence in university students. This study was a correlational-descriptive design. The sample of this study consisted of 361 university students of Semnan Azad University in the academic year of 1396 selected by convenience sampling method based on Krejcie and Morgan table. Research tools were the Toronto Alexithymia Scale (1994), Gratz & Roemer Emotion Regulation Scale (2004), and Zarger et al. (1385) Addiction Proneness Scale. Data were analyzed using Pearson correlation test and stepwise regression. The results showed that there was a relationship between alexithymia components and proneness to substance dependence. Difficulty in identifying feelings and difficulty in describing feelings explained totally 18% of the variance of proneness to substance dependence. Also, the results showed that there was a relationship between the components of emotion dysregulation and proneness to substance dependence. Non-acceptance of emotional responses, difficulty in impulse control, and difficulty in engaging in goal-directed behavior explained totally 29% of the variance of proneness to substance dependence. Overall, the results indicated the importance and roles of emotional distress and emotion regulation in substance dependence, so paying attention to emotion regulation using appropriate strategies to prevent substance dependence is essential.
