Abstract

Introduction: The purpose of this study was to investigate the effectiveness of a cognitive therapy training program based on mindfulness for emotional regulation and resilience in individuals with drug addiction and frequent relapse.
Materials and Methods: The method of the present research was semi-experimental, employing a pre-test-post-test design with a control group. The statistical population consisted of individuals suffering from addiction, who formed a non-residential treatment community center (daily) in the Goshet Sohtgan corner of Kermanshah. From this community, 30 individuals were selected through voluntary sampling, and after random assignment, they were divided into an experimental group and a control group (15 individuals in each group). The data collection tool was the Emotion Regulation and Resilience Scale. The implementation process of mindfulness-based cognitive therapy training lasted for 8 sessions, with each session lasting 90 minutes; the control group did not receive any intervention. The results were analyzed using a multivariate covariance test.
Results: The results indicated a statistically significant difference between the average scores of the experimental and control groups in both the total score of the emotion regulation variable (F = 66.284) and the resilience variable (F = 19.602).
Conclusion: Consequently, this approach can be utilized in the education of individuals with drug dependence, as they represent one of the vulnerable groups in society, particularly in preventing relapse.
