Abstract
The aim of this study was to investigate the effectiveness of group reality therapy counseling on procrastination and loneliness in Na addicts. The research method was quasi-experimental with pre-test and post-test design with control group. The statistical population of this study, including Na addicts in Tehran and sampling by simple random method, selected 30 people. The effective intervention counseling program was implemented in 8 sessions and a 60-minute session for the experimental group. Di Tomasso, Brennan & Best (2004), and Steel's pure procrastination questionnaire (2010) were used to collect information. To analyze the data, mean descriptive statistics and standard deviation and inferential statistics of Lon test, Kolmogorov Smirnov, analysis of covariance were used. The results of this study suggest that there is a statistically significant difference between procrastination and loneliness in Na addicts before and after the intervention. There is a significant difference in subscales of feelings of loneliness (romantic loneliness, family loneliness, social loneliness) (p <0.001). And in procrastination (p <0.001). Accordingly, holding reality therapy group intervention sessions is effective in delaying and feeling lonely in Na addicts.
