- Abstract
Objective: To analyze the relationship between stress and impulsive behavior in individuals with mental disorders related to substance use and abuse. Method: Cross-sectional analytical study. Assessments were performed using the Childhood Trauma Questionnaire and the Barratt Impulsiveness Scale. Results: Linear regression demonstrated a significant predictability of the total impulsiveness score explained by the total Childhood Trauma Questionnaire, emotional abuse and physical abuse (p<0.05). Motor impulsiveness was significantly predicted by total Childhood Trauma Questionnaire, emotional abuse, physical abuse and sexual abuse (p<0.05). Positive correlations between emotional and physical abuse and the impulsiveness score were identified. In linear regression models, emotional and physical abuse were the main variables influencing impulsiveness. Conclusion: Emotional and physical abuse in drug users influences the manifestations of impulsiveness, so it is pertinent to create strategies aimed at reducing the impacts of impulsiveness and underlying factors.
