Background and Objectives: The present study examines the mediating role of resilience in the relationship between co-dependency and interpersonal cognitive distortions with addiction readiness in adolescents.
Methods: This research employed a descriptive-correlational design and utilized path analysis. Using a multistage cluster sampling method, 200 male high school students aged 15–18 years from Abadan City, Iran, were selected. Research instruments included the Weed and Butcher addiction readiness scale (1992), Connor-Davidson resilience scale (2003), Hamamci and Büyüköztürk’s interpersonal cognitive distortions questionnaire (2004), and Spann and Fischer co-dependency questionnaire (1990).
Results: Path analysis revealed that both co-dependency and interpersonal cognitive distortions had significant positive relationships with addiction readiness. Additionally, resilience demonstrated a significant negative relationship with addiction readiness. Indirect effects analysis showed that resilience significantly mediated the relationship between co-dependency and addiction readiness, but did not mediate the relationship between interpersonal cognitive distortions and addiction readiness.
Conclusion: Co-dependency and interpersonal cognitive distortions may act as risk factors for addiction readiness in adolescents. Moreover, resilience can attenuate the effect of co-dependency on addiction readiness. These results can inform the design of preventive programs aimed at enhancing resilience and addressing maladaptive interpersonal beliefs among adolescents.
