Objective: The present research aimed to elucidate a model for predicting the tendency of adolescents toward substance use disorder based on family quality of life, mediated by emotion regulation styles. Method: This study employed a descriptive-correlational design using the structural equation modeling (SEM) approach. The statistical population comprised all 10,647 students in the theoretical, technical, and vocational branches of the second-grade secondary school. A sample size of 374 individuals was determined and selected using multi-stage cluster random sampling. Data were collected using the substance abuse tendency questionnaire, the family quality of life questionnaire, and the emotion regulation scale. Results: The results indicated that family quality of life had a significant, direct, and negative relationship with the tendency toward substance use. Furthermore, cognitive reappraisal, as one dimension of emotion regulation, played a significant mediating role in the relationship between family quality of life and the tendency toward substance use. In contrast, emotional suppression, the other dimension of emotion regulation, did not exhibit such a mediating role. Conclusion: Based on the findings of this research, managing emotion regulation styles and improving family quality of life can be beneficial in ameliorating the inclination of adolescents toward substance use disorder.
