The aim of this investigation was to study the factors responsible for drug addiction amongst the inmates of Tabriz and Qom prisons, to further understand the reasons for drug abuse particularly in the young and find improved methods for combating these widespread problems.
A multi-choice questionnaire was provided to inmates to potentially assess the reasons for their drug addiction psychiatric, personal, social, economical, and political factors were thought to be implicated. Two hundred drug addicted prisoners were individually interviewed randomly in both Tabriz and Qom prisons. A questionnaire including questions about the inmates' demographic characteristics and 49 multiple answers questions, was provided to identify the effects of different reasons for drug addiction for instance: psychiatric, personal, social, economical, and political factors. The collected data were analyzed by Student t-test and chi-squared test using SPSS software.
The results showed that the following factors could lead to drug addiction e.g. company with addicted friends and offenders, curiosity, imitation, illiteracy, family problems, crowded family, poverty, unemployment, and lack of self confidence. There were significant differences between Tabriz and Qom prisoners in relation to age, starting age of addiction, job, income, education, class of addiction, marital status, and hobbies. Mean age, mean starting age of addiction, poverty, alcohol drinking before addiction, marital status, heroin addiction, codeine and benzodiazepines abuse were significantly greater for Tabriz prisoners than those of Qom.
It is clear that the governmental programs for reducing unemployment, creation of safe hobbies, proper control on drug dispensing in the pharmacies, proper birth control programs, and encouragement to higher education could alleviate addiction problem in Iran.
本调查旨在研究大不里士和库姆监狱囚犯吸毒成瘾的相关因素，进一步了解吸毒尤其是年轻人吸毒的原因，并找到更好的方法来应对这些普遍存在的问题。
向囚犯提供一份多项选择题问卷，以潜在评估他们吸毒成瘾的原因，认为涉及精神、个人、社会、经济和政治因素。在大不里士和库姆监狱分别随机对200名吸毒成瘾囚犯进行单独访谈。提供一份问卷，其中包括关于囚犯人口统计学特征的问题以及49个多项选择题，以确定不同吸毒成瘾原因的影响，例如：精神、个人、社会、经济和政治因素。使用SPSS软件通过学生t检验和卡方检验对收集的数据进行分析。
结果表明，以下因素可能导致吸毒成瘾，例如与吸毒成瘾的朋友和罪犯交往、好奇心、模仿、文盲、家庭问题、家庭拥挤、贫困、失业和缺乏自信。大不里士和库姆的囚犯在年龄、开始吸毒年龄、工作、收入、教育、成瘾类型、婚姻状况和爱好方面存在显著差异。大不里士囚犯的平均年龄、平均开始吸毒年龄、贫困程度、吸毒前饮酒情况、婚姻状况、海洛因成瘾、可待因和苯二氮䓬类药物滥用情况均显著高于库姆的囚犯。
显然，政府减少失业的计划、创造安全的爱好、对药店药品配给的适当控制、适当的计划生育计划以及鼓励高等教育，可以缓解伊朗的成瘾问题。
