Abstract

Substance use disorders (SUD) are now a major global problem, including substance abuse, addiction, and relapse. Numerous studies have demonstrated the significance of self-efficacy in the treatment of addiction as well as the prevention of relapse. Self-efficacy is defined as an individual’s perception that he or she is capable of carrying out behaviors that produce desired effects. The level of patients with substance use disorders’ perceived self-efficacy is influenced by a variety of factors in the reality of society, and the outcome expressed in terms of addiction and relapse rates can also be influenced by personal and social factors. In addition, the level of patients’ perceived self-efficacy is influenced by many different factors. However, self-efficacy remains highly correlated with addiction and relapse rates over time. The study of self-efficacy in SUD is beneficial for the clinical prevention and treatment of SUD, as well as for the provision of appropriate social support. This paper illustrates the current theoretical and practical research on self-efficacy and makes suggestions for future research on self-efficacy.
