Abstract :
This study has examined the effectiveness of brief strategic family therapy (BSFT) on improving the environment of families with addicted member. 30 male participants were selected among people who were under therapy in an outpatient health care center. They were 20-30 years old and single who lived with their parents. They used opiate, analeptic and combined drugs. 15 people along with their parents were assigned in a brief strategic family therapy (BSFT) group and 15 people in a control group who received Methadone maintenance therapy (MMT) as a usual therapy of the center. They were assigned randomly in these two groups. The participants replied to Family Environment Scale (FES) in the pre-test, post-test and a follow up test 2 months after termination of the treatment. The results of the variance analysis with repeated measures demonstrated that cohesion, conflict, organization and control in two groups had a significant difference. BSFT was found to be effective in reducing relapse rate. The results represent that BSFT model along with the usual treatment of the language centers are more effective in improving aspects of family environment and reducing relapse rates.
