Abstract

The study investigated differences of personality traits and religious orientation in addicted and normal people. 109 addicted people and 109 normal people were randomly selected and fill out NEO Personality Inventory (NEO-FFI) and Alport's E/I religious orientation. Mean scores were compared with T independent tests. Analysis of means indicated addicted people scored higher on Neuroticism, Openness to experience and External religious orientation, and lower on Extroversion, Agreeableness and Conscientiousness than normal people. Attentions to internal religious orientation and personality traits can help the psychologists to diagnose and reduce the psychological problems during drug treatment and increase efficacy of treatment methods.
