In comparison with the control group, the opiate abuse group experienced more items of life events (P0.05), more frequently (P0.05) and more intensively in perception either in scores of individual (P 0.01)or sum (P0.01) of 14 items; the scores of coping style were higher (P0.01) but there was no significant difference in scores of family function between two groups (P0.05).
