Objective: The present study aimed to determine the effectiveness of family empowerment with social-emotional learning on psychological disturbance and emotional expression in adolescents with substance abuse parents.
Method: The research method was semi-experimental with a pre-test-post-test design and a control and follow-up group. The statistical population consisted of teenagers with substance-dependent parents in Tabriz who had been referred to drug addiction treatment centers in Tabriz in the fall of 2021. Thirty people were purposefully selected and were randomly assigned into two experimental and control groups. Research data were collected using the depression, anxiety, and stress scale (DASS-21) by Lovibond and Lovibond (1995) and the emotional expression questionnaire (EEQ) by King and Emmons (1990) and were analyzed by variance analysis with repeated measurements.
Results: The results of the present study showed that family empowerment affects the emotional expression, depression, anxiety, and stress of adolescents with substance-dependent parents (P<0.01), and this effect was stable in the three-month follow-up (P<0.01).
Conclusion: According to the results, it can be concluded that empowering the family with a social-emotional learning program is one of the effective treatments for adolescents' psychological disturbance and emotional expression
