The statistical population of the study included substance-dependent individuals referring to the Medium-Term Residential Recovery Center in the city of Astara in the first quarter of 2020. Among them, 20 people were selected by convenience sampling method and were randomly assigned to experimental (n = 10) and control (n = 10) groups. The research measurement instruments were the stages of change readiness and treatment eagerness scale and the levels of self-criticism scale. To analyze the data, the descriptive statistics and multivariate analysis of covariance were used.
