A comparative study of drug addicts and Non-Drug addicts on Seif-Esteem, Self-Efficacy, and Stress-Resistant Personality Kyaw Naing Lin This paper is a report concerned with a comparative study of drug addicts and non-drug addicts on self-efficacy, self-esteem, and stress-resistant personality. A group of 46 drug addicts were recruited through Mandalay Drug Treatment Hospital and Care Myanmar Group to participate in a questionnaire study. 100 community members who live in Mandalay were also recruited as a control group of non-drug addicts to participate in a questionnaire study. Participants of both groups were asked to complete Mandalay general self-efficacy scale, self-esteem scale, and stress-resistant personality inventory. The mean differences of responses on each scale between drug addicts group and non-drug addicts group were examined by using t test. There were no differences between drug addicts and non-drug addicts on general self-efficacy and hardiness. However, the results of the present study showed that drug addicts were lower in self-esteem and optimism and more cynical than non-drug addicts. 2009 http://hdl.handle.net/20.500.12678/0000000537 https://meral.edu.mm/records/537
