| Sumario: | Introduction: The aim of this study was to determine the role of mental disorders in predicting the treatment seeking (Treatment seeking and non-treatment seeking) among people with substance abuse disorders.
Methods: The research method was analytical and cross-sectional. The statistical population of this study was people with opioid substance abuse disorder in Meybod City. The participants of the study included two groups of people with non-treatment seeking substance abuse disorders (n = 40) and the treatment seeking group (n = 40) who were selected by available sampling according to the specific conditions of these individuals. The data collection tool in this study was the Millon Mental Disorders Test and the data were analyzed using logistic regression analysis with using SPSS software version 23 .
Results: The findings of the present study showed that mental disorders could predict the status of people with substance abuse disorders in whether they are treatment seeking or non-treatment seeking. The results showed that non-treatment seeking group had a higher score in narcissistic personality disorder (B= 0.27; Exp(B) = 1.31), which was a statistically significant difference, but the treatment-seeking group had a higher score in antisocial personality disorders (B=-0.18; Exp (B) =0.83) and delusional disorder (B=-0.50; Exp (B) = 0.61). This difference was also statistically significant.
Conclusion: Therefore, according to the findings, it can be concluded that there are different mental disorders between the two groups of treatment seeking and non-treatment seeking that should be considered by therapists. The findings of this study could pave the way for future research on comorbid substance abuse disorders and provide new research pathways for the researchers in the field of addiction treatment. |
