Introduction: Emotional problems, psychological distress and cravings are some of the side effects of substance abuse. The aim of this study was compare the effect of transcranial direct current stimulation and Methadone Maintenance treatment on craving reduction, emotion regulation and distress tolerance in people with opioid use disorder. Method: The present study was a quasi-experimental. The statistical population of this study was all people admitted to addiction treatment clinics in Hamedan in 2019, which 40 patients were selected by available and voluntary sampling in two experimental groups of methadone therapy (n = 13), electrical brain stimulation (n = 13) and a control group (n = 14). Subjects completed the Emotion Regulation Difficulty Scale, Distress Tolerance Scale, and measure the temptation of substances after leaving. Data were analyzed by analysis of covariance. Results: The results showed that electrical stimulation had a significant effect on craving, emotion regulation and distress tolerance (p <0.05). Methadone therapy was effective in craving reduction and emotion regulation, but had no effect on distress tolerance. In comparison between the two experimental groups, no significant difference was observed in craving reduction (p> 0.05), but the effect of electrical stimulation on emotion regulation was greater. Conclusion: Due to the greater effect of transcranial direct current stimulation on emotion regulation and distress tolerance, it can be used as an effective and complementary treatment, along with the usual treatments for substance use disorder and the emotional distress it caused.

Method: This study was of descriptive-correlational type in which 300 (181 boys and 119 girls) bodybuilding athletes of Khuy city were selected via cluster sampling, and filled out Exercise Addiction Inventory, BIS/BAS Scales, Difficulties in Emotion Regulation Scale. Data were analysed using descriptive statistics (mean and standard deviation), Pearson correlation coefficient, and structural equation modelling. Findings: The results depicted that there exists a significant and positive relationship between behavioral activation system and emotional regulation difficulties with exercise addiction. The proposed model benefits from a favorable fit with data, and behavioural activation system with direct effect (β = 0.19, pConclusion: The findings of this study indicated the need to consider the behavioral activation system as a fundamental biological variable and emotional regulation difficulties as a mediator in the vulnerability of athlete’s bodybuilders in exercise addiction.

Participants completed the Emotion Regulation questionnaire in the baseline, the end of the treatment and follow-up. Conner's Inventory was answered 2times within the treatment and brain waves activity was recorded in the neurofeedback group before and after the treatment.
