Abstract:
Background
In recent years, addiction such as drug dependence has increased in Afghanistan. Since the lack of scientific study of personality traits and emotional intelligence of addicts can lead to the ineffectiveness of prevention methods.
Aims
the purpose of this study was to investigate and compare the personality traits and emotional intelligence of drug addicts [heroin and methamphetamine] in 293 addicts as experimental group with 293 non-addicted people as control group living in Kabul city who were matched in terms of demographic characteristics.
Method
The research method was a retrospective case-control study. DSM-5 criteria were used to diagnose drug dependence, the MMPI-2 test was used to assess the personality traits and the Bar On test was used to assess the emotional intelligence. One-way analysis of variance and Tukey test were used to test the research hypotheses.
Results
The findings of the study showed that the mean of drug addicts in all indicators of MMPI-2 test were higher than those of normal people(p<0/001). Regarding emotional intelligence, the mean scores of healthy subjects in all bar-test criteria were also higher than those who were addicted to drugs such as heroin and methamphetamine.
Conclusions
The normal people had better personality characteristics and emotional intelligence than addicted people.
