description Background: Due to the increase in substance use disorders and its adverse consequences on individual and social issues, it is necessary to use effective interventions. Much research has been done on the effectiveness of different therapeutic approaches on emotional maturity, but research that examines the effectiveness of mindfulness and acceptance and commitment therapies on emotional maturity in people with substance use disorders has been overlooked. Aims: The purpose of this study was to Comparison of the efficacy of MBCT and ACT on emotional maturity in people with substance abuse disorders. Method: The research design was a quasi-experimental pretest-posttest with a control group. The statistical population was 300 men with substance abuse who referred to addiction treatment centers under the supervision of Ardabil General Welfare Office in 2018. 45 people were selected by available sampling and then randomly assigned 30 people in the experimental groups and 15 people in the control group. The experimental group received training in eight sessions of 90 minutes of Teaching Cognitive Therapy Techniques based on Segal, Williams and Teasdale Mindfulness Therapy (2002) and Wilson, Gifford and Beten Acceptance and Commitment Therapy Techniques (2014) and the control group did not receive any intervention. The instrument of the present study was the emotional maturity questionnaire (1974) and data were analyzed by analysis of covariance and LSD post hoc test with SPSS 25 software.
