Abstract:
Objective:To explore the relationship between relapse tendency and psychological craving in fe-male methamphetamine(MA)-dependent young adults,focusing on the roles of self-control and future time per-spective.Methods:A total of 340 MA-dependent young adults from two women's compulsory isolation drug reha-bilitation centers in Sichuan Province were included.Participants were assessed with the Relapse Tendency Ques-tionnaire(RTQ),Obsessive Compulsive Drug Use Scale(OCDUS),Drug Abuser Self-Control Ability Question-naire(DASAQ)and General Future Time Perspective Scale(GFTPQ).The moderated mediation model was ana-lyzed by using the SPSS macro program PROCESS(version4.2).Results:The RTQ scores were positively correla-ted with the OCDUS scores(r=0.45,P<0.001).The DASAQ scores partially mediated the relationship between the scores of OCDUS and RTQ,accounted for 37.91%of the total effect.The GFTP scores moderated the relation-ship between the scores of the OCDUS,DASAQ and RTQ(β=-0.18,0.19,P<0.001).Conclusion:The influ-ence of psychological craving on relapse tendency in female MA-dependent young adults exhibits a moderated me-diating effect,suggesting the potential of enhancing self-control and future time perspective for preventing relapse and improving detoxification efficiency.
