Abstract

Introduction: psychological interventions have received a special place in the treatment of ADDICTION. The current study was done with the purpose of investigating the effectiveness of Meta cognitive therapy and positive-oriented therapy on decreasing the intensity of CRAVING in male METHAMPHETAMINE users.Material & Methods: In A quasi-experimental design with pre-test, post-test and control group, 45 patients(the age range of 18-29 and with average age of 24.2) under Residential treatment center (TC) were selected with Purposive sampling and were assigned randomly into three groups, two experimental groups (n=15) and one control group (n=15). Participants of experimental groups received group Meta cognitive and positive-oriented treatment programs for 8 weeks and participants of control group only received the routine treatment of the center. The index of severity of CRAVING was evaluated in two stages before treatment and two weeks after finishing the treatment.Data were analyzed using univariate variance analysis and Test-Tukey.Results: Results showed there is a significant difference between these two therapeutic groups and group meta cognitive treatment was more effective in reducing CRAVING compared to positive oriented treatment(p<0.01). Also, both treatments showed significant difference compared to the control group(p<0.05).Conclusion: These findings, more than ever, show the inefficiency in the executive functioning of METHAMPHETAMINE users and make the need to apply the therapeutic approaches based on the changing the mental process rather than modifying inefficient beliefs.
