Women dependent on drugs face greater challenges in accessing treatment services, and the use of psychological interventions to improve the skills necessary for substance abstinence in women has been overlooked.

This study aimed to investigate the effectiveness of schema therapy on brain-behavioral systems, emotional dysregulation, and abstinence self-efficacy among women.

The research employed a semi-experimental design with a pre-test-post-test- follow-up approach with a control group. The statistical population included all women dependent on drugs in Tehran in 2023. A purposive sampling method was used to select 30 participants, who were randomly assigned to either the schema therapy group or the control group. Schema therapy was conducted over 20 sessions based on the protocol by Young et al. (2003) and Young & Kloss (2003). Data were collected using the Behavioral Inhibition System/Behavioral Activation System (BIS/BAS) scale by Carver and White (1994), the Difficulties in Emotion Regulation Scale (DERS) by Gratz and Roemer (2004), and the Drug Abstinence Self-Efficacy Scale (DASES) by Martin (1995). Data analysis was performed using SPSS.v24 software, employing repeated measures ANOVA and Bonferroni post hoc tests.

The results indicated that schema therapy was effective in improving the overall score of the brain-behavioral system and its components of behavioral inhibition and activation, with the results remaining stable at the follow-up stage. Additionally, schema therapy significantly impacted the overall emotional dysregulation score and the components of non-acceptance, goals, awareness, and strategies, with this effectiveness also persisting at follow-up. Furthermore, schema therapy was effective in enhancing the overall abstinence self-efficacy score and the components of problem-solving, decision-making, communication, and self-assertion, with effects continuing to the follow-up stage.

Based on the obtained results, the use of schema therapy is recommended as a complementary intervention alongside other therapeutic measures to improve brain-behavioral systems, emotional dysregulation, and abstinence self-efficacy among women dependent on drugs.

 Before the Safavid era, the use of substances such as opium as a medicine was common. But in this era, all kinds of drugs for pleasure spread and different classes of people, soldiors, ministers and even the king himself turned to it and tried to use them to advance their political goals. So that it’s improper use, the society was caught in a problem called addiction. The literature of this period was not far from the effects of addiction and it was clearly reflected in the poets' poems. Accordingly, the present study seeks to address the issue of addiction through the lens of poetry of Safavid poets and to answer the question that from the poets' point of view, how did drug addiction spread and what was their reaction as a group of intellectuals in society to this issue?

 This research is descriptive-analytical and the method of collecting data is library and historical research.

Ethical Considerations:

 In this research, the ethical aspects of library study, including the authenticity of texts, honesty and trustworthiness have been observed.

 The findings indicate that people turned to drugs with the intention of stimulating taste, pleasure, sadness and happiness, stimulation of sexual desire and therapeutic use. But due to its destructive effects, they wanted to quit and while condemning the use of such substances, they also suggested gradual quitting them.

 In the poets’ works of the Safavid period, types of drugs were mentioned 85 times. Opium and tobacco are the most used and poppy and hemp are the least used. Many examples of terms related to drugs, how to prepare and use these drugs, condemning the sufferers and presenting various suggestions to get rid of addiction, in the poets’ poems of this period indicate the prevalence of drugs in those days.

Prevention of drug abuse and crimes is one of the biggest problems of countries in the world, including Iran.Therefore, it is necessary to investigate the most effective methods of dealing with drug crimes in the society, which is one of the most influential categories of Quranic teachings. The current research has been done with the aim of designing a model of successful reintegration and social health of men who committed drug crimes with the approach of the teachings of the Quran.

This research has been conducted using qualitative research method (foundation data), interviews with 21 experts in the field of drug crime recidivism and social health. It is done by relevant specialists.

The successful social health and recovery model of drug offenders with the approach of Quranic teachings includes 11 selective codes of building public trust, economic support, creating protective shields, creating stable employment, social and psychological support, creating motivation, improving social relations, environmental health, The monitoring and follow-up of the prisoner is to achieve relative independence and create a sense of satisfaction with life, which were used to design the model of this research.

Addiction to drugs and drug trafficking is a social issue and causes many social harms and family and individual disorders. And the most important solution to get rid of this woman-burning problem is to resort to the teachings of the Quran, through which we can deal with the successful acceptance and social health of people who commit drug crimes.

Not only can the experience of pain be a factor for drug use, but it can also be a motivation to use drugs again during and after treatment.

The purpose of the present study was to compare the effectiveness of acceptance and commitment-based therapy and mindfulness-based therapy on chronic pain in People with drug addiction.

The research method was semi-experimental with a pre-test-post-test design and a control group with one-month follow-up. The statistical population included people suffering from drug abuse who referred to addiction treatment clinics in Arak city in 2021. Using available sampling method, 60 people were selected and randomly put/ placed in experimental and control groups (20 people in each group). The research tool included the revised McGill Pain Questionnaire (2009). Mindfulness therapy was implemented in 8 sessions (90 minutes each session) and acceptance and commitment based therapy was also implemented in 8 sessions (90 minutes each session). Data were analyzed using SPSS-25 statistical software and covariance analysis.

The results of covariance analysis for chronic pain in the post-test and follow-up phase showed/ demonstrated a significant difference (P=0.001). Both treatments had a significant effect on the improvement of chronic pain, and it is worth noting that this effect was greater for the treatment group for whom the treatment was based on acceptance and commitment (P=0.01).

Treatment based on acceptance and commitment showed more effectiveness in improving chronic pain compared to mindfulness. Therefore, the use of acceptance and commitment-based therapy is recommended to improve chronic pain in people suffering from drug abuse.

 One of the social problems of the Safavid period was widespread addiction to opioids; the occurrence of deviations and social harms was considered one of its serious consequences. Although this phenomenon was considered common among common people and courtiers and each of them was affected by this disease in some way, it was more visible among the poets of this era. This research aims to investigate the causes of their tendency to drugs while investigating the use of opiates among the poets of the Safavid era.

 This research has been carried out using a descriptive-analytical method, relying on library studies and referring to the written sources of the Safavid era, especially the tazkireh texts.

Ethical Considerations:

 In this research, honesty and trustworthiness in the use of historical sources have been fully respected.

 The findings of this research show that the use of various drugs such as opium, poppy, hemp, flonia, Kokonar, charas and barsh was widespread among the poets of the Safavid era, and many liked it. Death has taken place.

 The results of this research show that the broad wave of poets' desire for drugs in the Safavid era was to strengthen their imagination to write their poems. This finding is strengthened when we know that the poetic style of the Safavid era was an Indian style that needed imagination in order to use far-fetched themes. In this way, it can be said that poets have looked at these materials as a tool to improve the quality of their work. In addition, the prohibition of intoxicants as a general factor has not been ineffective in this trend. However, the spread of this condition had created many problems for the health of these poets.

The keywords used in searches , regardless of time limit, were substance abuse, diagnosis and drugs diagnosis and drugs. Duplicate and irrelevant items were excluded from the study after the initial screening. The content was classified based on laboratory samples. Ethical standards were observed in all stages of the research and no bias was made by the researchers in the stages of the review.

76 English and Persian articles were retrieved, of which 24 related studies were reviewed. According to the findings, the amount of substance remaining in the body and the time of the test were considered the two important principles for the rapid and accurate diagnosis of substance abuse. Urine, blood, exhaled breath, saliva, sweat, nails, and hair are biological samples that are commonly used to diagnose substance abuse in laboratories. The choice of each depends on factors such as cost, ease of sample collection, risk of fraud, type of test (immediate or laboratory), drug abuse time frame (acute or chronic),the last time of using and the use of each to diagnose of drugs and consumption have advantages and disadvantages.

No laboratory methods have been found with 100% diagnostic accuracy to detect drug abuse and various laboratory methods are always at risk of false-positive or false-negative results. However, accurate and rapid diagnosis of drug abuse in various areas of law enforcement, such as traffic police, crime detection, and forensics, is important, and studies are ongoing.

Drug addiction is a recurring chronic mental illness associated with severe motivational disorders and loss of behavioral control.

In addition, a positive history of ischemic heart disease (P=0.007) and psychiatric disorders (P=0.02) were the diseases related to drug use.

The prevalence of drug use was high in the study population. There is an urgent need for intervention and preventive measures to solve this complex social problem.

Considering that informal settlements are mostly accompanied by aggressive occupation or unauthorized construction and lack the necessary safety, they reproduce social damage within the family institution. Adaptation and compatibility in the outskirts of cities is very low, and families who are forced to live in the outskirts of big cities due to different cultures and different attitudes, often live side by side with each other, not with understanding, but with hostility, and it is natural. It is that they do not feel safe and their families and children suffer the most damage in the outskirts of the cities. By conducting the present research, the effect of informal settlements on addiction and drugs is investigated.

The current research is an applied research in terms of its purpose. In terms of method, it is a descriptive research and it will be done as a survey; Because the required information is obtained from the current state of the statistical sample using a questionnaire.

In the present study, the minimum sample size required through Cochran's formula was 384 members of 4 informal settlement districts of Kermanshah city (Daulatabad neighborhood, Shatarabad neighborhood, Koliabad neighborhood, Jafarabad neighborhood), and this number was the basis of the analysis. The number was chosen by random-cluster method.

Addiction damage, as an individual and social problem, is considered a serious social damage in households with informal accommodation in Kermanshah city. So that some unemployed young people and even teenagers have chosen buying and selling drugs as their profession and earn a living in this way. The ease of access to drugs in some neighborhoods causes a tendency to commit special crimes, including drug trafficking and drug use among families living in these settlements.

According to the results of the final fitted model and the significance level related to the predictor variable, it can be said with 95% confidence that informal settlements have an effect on the amount of drug consumption of people living in the informal settlement areas of Kermanshah city. has meaning; That is, with the increase of informal settlements, the amount of drug consumption by family members increases.

One of the social problems of societies is the phenomenon of crime and delinquency that arises as a result of social problems such as poverty, unemployment, economic and social crises, changes in laws and social patterns, weakening of religious beliefs and the general imbalance in the social order. Among these, one of the factors and harms that lead to delinquency is drugs.

With regard to the production and use of drugs, it should be noted that the use of these drugs is very closely related to the health status of the international community. This feature causes a lot of sensitivity to them in the legal field. The production and use of drugs directly threatens the right to health. The right to health is also considered as one of the examples of the right to life. On the other hand, the right to life is a general title in the international human rights system, which is a subset of fundamental human rights.

 In order to organize this research, while observing the authenticity of the texts, honesty and fidelity have been observed.

Stateschr('39') obligation to ban the production and use of narcotics are described as "commanding" because of their close association with the "right to health" and the "right to life." As a result, in the context of international responsibility law, it is possible for state to adopt a pattern of aggravated responsibility (or responsibility for breach of mandatory rules).

Today, drug abuse as a multifaceted phenomenon has become one of the main problems in societies and has taken different forms.

The present study aims to examine the relationship between the duration and the rate of drug use and explicit/ implicit memory bias among opium and stimulant addicts.

The study design was a casual-comparative study. The statistical population included all opium and stimulant addicts in Takab city in 2018, that 30 opium addicts and 30 stimulant (methamphetamine) addicts were selected by available sampling and were homogenized in terms of some demographic variables. The research instruments included a computerized explicit memory, a computerized word base completion test, an unstructured clinical interview, and a demographic information questionnaire. Statistical data were analyzed by descriptive statistics, Pearson correlation coefficient, t -test and SPSS-17 software.

The results showed that there is a relationship between the drug use duration and explicit/ implicit memory bias in opium (r=+0.68) and stimulant addicts (r=+0.79) and also between rate of drug use and explicit/ implicit memory bias in opium (r=+0.73) and stimulant addicts (r=+0.81, P<0.05). In other words, with an increase in the duration and rate of drug use, the opium and stimulant addicts showed signs of higher explicit/ implicit memory bias even though stimulant addicts showed greater memory bias than the opium addicts (P<0.05).

Emphasis on cognitive processes including memory bias among drug addicts, is one of the solutions to consider in prevention and clinical treatment interventions.

One of the most fundamental problems of societies is the phenomenon of crimes and offenses that arises as a result of social problems such as poverty, unemployment, economic and social crises, changes in laws and social patterns, weakening of religious beliefs and in general imbalance in the social order. Committing drug crimes is also affected by social factors, so it is very important to investigate such factors and provide ways to prevent them. The purpose of this research is the criminological explanation of drug-related crimes and social factors affecting crime in Isfahan province.

This research was conducted as a survey research and its statistical population is among the prisoners of Isfahan province, 135 prisoners, both men and women, were available to fill the questionnaire. Specifically, 85 questionnaires were distributed to Isfahan Central Prison (Dastgerd) for men and 50 questionnaires were also delivered to women's prison. In order to clarify the subject of the research, after completing the questionnaires among the statistical population, information was entered and then the data was analyzed through the software, and the results of the questionnaires and hypotheses were analyzed using statistical tests of correlation and analysis of variance.

 In order to organize this research, while observing the authenticity of the texts, honesty and fidelity have been observed.

The results showed that the majority of drug offenders in Isfahan province grew up in poor families with moderate to low economic and social status. Also, the majority of criminals had friends with a history of drug crimes, and so the majority of them lived on the outskirts of cities and villages, and their access to drugs was high.

Social factors such as poor family, bad friends and living on the outskirts of the city and easy access to drugs play an important role in the tendency of people to commit drug crimes. It is necessary with the efforts of the government (to support vulnerable families), and special attention to parents (educating them to socialize their children and proper control over their children's association with others) and the cooperation of educational and cultural officials and the mass media to prevent the occurrence of such crimes in the society.

 Individual factors, as one of the factors affecting people's tendency to addiction, play an important role. The aim of this study was to investigate the role of healthy lifestyle and self-efficacy in preventing drug abuse among students.

 The present study is a review study based on search in search engines and valid scientific and academic databases using keywords such as drug abuse, lifestyle, causes of tendency to drugs among the students community and the role of society and family in preventing the use of drugs in Persian and English in prestigious databases such as PubMed, Wiley, Elsevier, Science Direct and SID from 1980 to 2019. The articles were selected and reviewed.

 Research has shown that people's tendency to addiction is influenced by various factors, including individual and family factors. The influence of the family is definite through inheritance and upbringing on its members and plays an important role in shaping children's behaviors. If the family resists multiple problems, this trait is also passed on to children and they, too, will deal effectively with stressful situations. Family is the most important factor.

 Most people in the community believe that substance abuse is masculine, while women are progressing alongside men in this area, with statistics indicating an increasing number of infected women. The purpose of this study was to determine the effectiveness of enriching couples relationships on tolerance of distressed women who were drug abusers

This is a quasi-experimental study with pre-test, post-test and follow-up test with control group. Initially, 40 women were selected from the study and 20 were randomly assigned to the experimental group and 20 to the control group. Subjects were then assessed using a distress tolerance test (Simmons & Gahr, 2005). Experimental group participants participated in enrichment sessions based on Doba, Graham, Britz and Minatra (2009) choice theory and control group subjects remained on the waiting list. A follow-up test was taken after three months. Multivariate analysis of variance with repeated measures was used to analyze the data. The above analyzes were performed with SPSS V. 24 software

 The results indicated that there was a significant difference between the mean of pre-test, posttest and follow-up scores of distress tolerance scales in the experimental and control groups. (P<0.05). The mean distress tolerance in the experimental group increased from 34.533 to 42.80 in the pre-test phase and reached 42.533 in the follow-up phase. Also, the significant interaction between the stages with the experimental group in the mentioned variable indicates that in the post-test and follow-up stages, the mean of the experimental groups was significantly higher than the control group.

 Due to the increasing trend of addiction in women, proper education is one of the essentials. Therefore, it is recommended to take effective steps to improve couple distress tolerance training by enriching couple relationships
