Current research aims at identification and prediction of effective variables on success of addiction treatment among addicts of Alborz Province Addiction Treatment Centers in 2016.

The differences between groups’ means for all variables at p=0.01 and for acceptance variable at p=0.05 were reported to be significant.
Conclusion: Among 18 predictable variables seven of them which consist of social support, negative affections, alexithymia, spiritual attitude, extroversion, agreeableness, positive reassessment, remained in the model which with the ability of 86.8 per cent can predict the success of addiction treatment.
