Introduction: Increasing drug use among adolescents has reached an epidemicThis study aimed Causal Modeling of Tendency to Addiction Based on Anxiety Sensitivity Mediated by Mediation Difficult in Emotion Regulation in Male Adolescents.
Materials and Methods: The method of this study was descriptive-correlational. The whole students studying in Parsabad city in the year 2019 formed the statistical population of this study. Two hundred thirty-one of them were selected through cluster sampling from above statistical population and they were asked to respond to questionnaires of anxiety sensitivity, tendency to addiction and Difficulties in Emotion Regulation. Data were analyzed by Pearson correlation coefficient and structural equating modeling (SEM) using SPSS-25 and Lisrel 8.8software.
Results: The results showed that anxiety sensitivity was directly and indirectly associated with tendency to addiction (with difficulty mediating emotion regulation). The research model is well-fitted with difficult mediation in emotion regulation. Model fit indices also confirmed the association between anxiety sensitivity to addiction tendency and difficulty in emotion regulation.
Conclusion: The results showed that anxiety sensitivity as an independent variable and difficulty in emotion regulation as mediator variable are important factors in predicting addiction tendency. Which can be useful in planning prevention interventions and workshops to manage and control emotion and anxiety adjustment strategies.

Introduction: Considering the harmful and irreparable effects of addiction to prevent serious harm to students, it seems that measures should be taken in this regard. The aim of this study was to compare the effectiveness of group schema therapy and planned behavior training on student addiction of teachers at Farhangian University of Mashhad. Materials and Methods: The design of the present study is quasi-experimental in three groups with pre-test and post-test. The study population was all student teachers in the campuses of Khorasan Razavi province in the academic year of 2019-2020. Forty-five student-teachers were randomly assigned to three groups: schema therapy (n=15), planned behavior training (n=15), and control (n=15). The intervention groups underwent 11 sessions of 60-minute schema therapy and 8 sessions of 90-minute planned behavior training, respectively, and the control group did not receive treatment. Data by scale Goldsmith Addiction (2006) It was collected during three stages and analyzed by repeated measures analysis of variance. Results: The research findings showed that group schema therapy and planned behavior training are effective in reducing student-teacher addiction . This effect after one month follow-up in both groups was durable (P <0.01). There was also a significant difference between the two interventions (p < 0.01). Conclusion: Both schema therapy and planned behavior training can be effective in preventing youth addiction.

Background & Objectives: According to the increasing opioids abuse between women and pathophysiological effects of chronic exposure of opioids on mothers which might indirectly affect their offspring, herein, consequences of chronic morphine consumption and its withdrawal before the gestation was investigated on spatial memory, avoidance memory and vulnerability to morphine intake in offspring of first generation.
Materials & Methods: Twelve female Wistar rats were randomly divided into two groups. Morphine mothers group received morphine solution (0.4 mg/ml) for two months. Control mothers group received tab water. One month after stopping morphine consumption, mating was occurred. After the parturition, offspring was divided in separated male and female groups and was used as the target groups of the study. Spatial memory through Water Maze, avoidance memory through Shuttle Box and vulnerability to morphine intake through voluntary consumption of morphine solution were investigated.
Results: Mean of morphine solution consumption in male and female offspring of morphine mothers was significantly higher in compare to male and female offspring of control mothers (P<0.05). Results of learning in Water Maze revealed that male offspring of morphine mothers significantly spent more time and distance to find the platform in compare with male offspring of control (P<0.01). Also, in retention test, male offspring of morphine mothers cross the location of platform significantly fewer than male offspring of control (P<0.001). There was no significant differences in avoidance learning between experimental groups (P<0.05).
Conclusion: Our study revealedchronic morphine consumption before the gestation causesdamage of spatial memory in male offspring and also increases vulnerability to opiate intake of male and female offspring.

Background and purpose: Addiction is a dependence on the drug that makes him the physical and psychological dependence on drugs and will affect all his personal and social behavior and has been attacked as an important social pathology of human society. Therefore, the aim of this study was Effect of a given exercise program on quality of life and self steam of addicts.
Methods and materials: The study was quasi-experimental. Between drug addiction in the center of the 60 Congress, 60 of whom were purposefully selected and divided into two groups. The first group, There were 30 people after detoxification and drug treatments did not participate in exercise programs and advice received, the second Group, There were 30 people on drug treatment and counseling after detoxification were involved in sports programs. In two pre-test and post test subjects responded to questionnaires about quality of life and self steam.

Background: Aerobic exercise stimulates the release of β- endorphin and other endogenous opioid peptides that are induced influences of morphine and other receptors agonist’s opioid peptides. Therefore, it may be reduced withdrawal sign and benefit in withdrawal period.
The purpose of this study was investigated acute effects of swimming exercise on common behavior following withdrawal syndrome in morphine-dependent rats.
Method: in this experimental study Male Wistar rats (250±20 g, N=24) in two group (control addiction, exercise trained addiction) were addicted by morphine sulfate 0.4 mg/ml (for 21 days) and animals were submitted to swimming training for 8 weeks;they initially swim 60 min for 3 weeks, then 90 min 2 weeks, finally 120 min for 3 weeks. At the end of each stage of exercise protocol we inject naloxan hydrochloride (3mg/kg.ip). Behavioral symptoms (such as jumping, tearing, teeth chattering, diarrhea, and body tremors) were measured based on 45-minute in addicted animal. Analysis of variance with repeated measures (with the software SPSS) was used to analyze the data.
Results: Our data showed that swimming exercise after 5 and 8 weeks acutely decreased withdrawal sign (p
