Based on the multiple regression analysis, the three predictors explained 11% of the variance (R(2) = 0.
The hypotheses were tested using the Pearson's correlation method and regression analysis.Īccording to the results of the current study, the highest correlation was between alexithymia and the cognitive awareness subscale (r = 0.305 P < 0.01).There was no significant correlation between alexithymia and body image. The metacognitive strategy questionnaire (MCQ-30), physical self-description questionnaire (PSDQ), and Toronto alexithymia scale (TAS-20) were used for data collection. Participants were selected by random sampling. The research sample included addicts (males and females aged 10 to 70 years) who referred to the addiction treatment and counseling centers of three Iranian cities of Zahedan, Sari, and Neyriz. The aim of this study was to determine the role of metacognition and body image in predicting alexithymia in substance abusers. It stunts the growth of society and causes various problems such as reduction in public health, increase in mortality, rise in social and domestic traumas, loss of educational and occupational opportunities, involvement with the judicial system, and development of the substance-abuse cycle. Substance dependency is one of the biggest problems and worries of the world.
