Background: Opioid relapse remains one of the major challenges in the treatment of addiction. Effective therapeutic methods can play a significant role in reducing relapse rates. This study aimed to compare the effectiveness of cognitive-behavioral group therapy (CBT) and mindfulness-based cognitive therapy (MBCT) in reducing relapse rates among individuals with opioid dependence.
Method: A quasi-experimental design with pre-test, post-test, and control groups was employed. The statistical population included individuals with opioid dependence who attended an addiction treatment center in Sarpol-e Zahab during the first half of 2017. Among eligible volunteers, 36 participants diagnosed with opioid dependence were randomly assigned to three groups of 12 (CBT, MBCT, and control). Data were collected using the Relapse Prediction Scale. The MBCT intervention consisted of eight 2-hour sessions, while CBT was delivered in twelve 90-minute sessions.
Results: Analysis revealed significant differences between the three groups in terms of their effects on craving intensity (η²= 0.36, p< 0.001), likelihood of substance use (η²= 0.41, p< 0.001), and the linear combination of craving intensity and likelihood of use (η²= 0.77, p< 0.001). The MBCT group showed significantly lower scores in craving intensity and likelihood of substance use compared to the CBT and control groups.
Conclusion: Both CBT and MBCT are effective in reducing relapse among individuals with opioid dependence. However, MBCT demonstrated superior effectiveness, highlighting the importance of incorporating mindfulness-based interventions in addiction treatment programs.
