Abstrakt: Background and Purpose: The present study is designed to evaluate the effect of individual psychoeducation intervention based on integrated self-awareness and self-determination theories (i-SEAZ) toward self-efficacy among opioid-dependent patients in methadone treatment (MT). Methodology: 75 opioid-dependent participants who were on MT under Ministry of Health Malaysia from five Methadone Clinics in Klang Valley were evaluated on the effectiveness of the i-SEAZ intervention. The experiment group comprised 38 participants, who received ten sessions of individual i-SEAZ alongside MT, while 37 participants of the control group only received MT. The effectiveness of the intervention was assessed by the General Self Efficacy Questionnaire (GSE), with ten items. The assessment was performed two times; the first was two weeks before the initiation of i-SEAZ (as pretest), and the second was two weeks after i-SEAZ was completed (as posttest). Findings: The extracted data were analysed by ANCOVA using SPSS-20. The findings showed there was a significant improvement in the i-SEAZ scores between experiment and control groups at posttest (p = 0.000). It is concluded that the intervention of i-SEAZ is associated with a significant increase in self-efficacy among substance-dependent patients in Methadone Clinics. Contributions: This study is hoped to contribute to the psychologists and counselors at addiction clinics, treatment institutions and communities in adopting the i-SEAZ module to improve self-efficacy among patients in substance abuse treatment.
