Objective: To investigate the effectiveness of value-based emotional self-regulation training on impulse control, adaptive assertiveness, and attributional style in individuals referring to addiction treatment centers in East Azerbaijan Province. Method: This was a quasi-experimental study with a pretest-posttest design and a control group. Thirty individuals were selected through purposive sampling and randomly assigned to experimental and control groups (15 each). The experimental group received 10 sessions of 45 to 60 minutes of training, while the control group received no intervention. The instruments included the Impulsiveness Questionnaire, the Attributional Style Questionnaire, and the Adaptive and Aggressive Assertiveness Scale. Data were analyzed using multivariate analysis of covariance (MANCOVA) with SPSS version 26. Results: After controlling for the effect of the pretest, there was a significant difference between the two groups in impulse control, adaptive assertiveness, and attributional style; the training led to improvement in these variables in the experimental group compared to the control group. Conclusion: Value-based emotional self-regulation training, by emphasizing awareness and acceptance of emotions and choosing behaviors consistent with personal values, is effective in improving impulse control, adaptive assertiveness, and attributional style, and can be considered alongside other psychological and rehabilitation interventions.
Keywords: value-based emotional self-regulation, impulse control, adaptive assertiveness, attributional style, addiction treatment.
