Due to the young population texture of Iran, drug abuse has involved its special complexity. Therefore, its explanation and identification would be necessary for the development of suitable solutions and interventions.

The main research tools included Dehkordi`s addiction tendency questionnaire, mental health questionnaire (GHQ), and Personality Main Five Factor questionnaire (NEO). Data were analyzed based on Structured Equation Modeling (SEM) and Amos 2.0 software. Findings: The direct and indirect effects of Five Personality Factors on addiction tendency were studied and it was noted that mental health factor was the most influential variable (β = 0.38). The next influential variables are as follows: Neuroticism (β = 0.20), Extraversion (β = 0.13) and Deontology (β = 0.13), Appetence for new experiences (β = 0.05). Discussion and Conclusion: The characteristics of Five Personality Factors and psychological health provide a clear prediction of addiction tendency augmenter and depressor factors.
