Relationship between Addiction Memory and Abstinence Self-confidence among Female Drug Abusers:the Mediating Effect of Self-esteem
Objective To explore the relationship between addiction memory and abstinence self-confidence among female drug abusers,and to examine the mediating effect of self-esteem be-tween them.Methods 300 female drug abusers admitted to a compulsory drug rehabilitation fa-cility in Wuhan,Hubei Province were selected.The Confidence in Successful Detoxification Scale for Drug Abusers,the Addiction Memory Intensity Scale and the Rosenberg Self-Esteem Scale were used to assess abstinence self-confidence,addiction memory and self-esteem,respectively.A total of 295 valid questionnaires were collected.The mediating effect was analyzed using structural equation modeling.Results The total score of abstinence self-confidence and the scores of each di-mension were negatively correlated with the scores of addiction memory(r=-0.15～-0.29,all P＜0.01),and were positively associated with self-esteem levels(r=0.36～0.48,all P＜0.001);addiction memory and self-esteem were significantly negatively correlated(r=-0.19,P=0.001);addiction memory negatively predicted abstinence self-confidence(β=-0.17,P=0.002);self-es-teem levels partially mediated the relationship between addiction memory and abstinence self-con-fidence,with a mediating effect value of-0.09(95％CI=-0.15～-0.04,P=0.002).Conclusion Addiction memories of female drug abusers can play a direct role in abstinence self-confidence,as well as an indirect role through self-esteem.
