AbstractThe main purpose of this study was to explain the positive attitude towards addiction through a mechanistic model based on variables such as label, exclusion and feeling the need to use drugs. From a methodological point of view, this quantitative study was an explanatory survey. The statistical population was all the women undergoing treatment in addiction treatment centers of Golestan province in 2021, and 187 valid questionnaires were collected by available sampling method. The test of the research model was done by relying on the structural equation model (Amos26).The results of the hypothesis process showed that the social label directly leads to an increase in social exclusion, then social exclusion has a significant effect on the feeling of needing to use drugs. Furthermore, the feeling of needing to use drugs has a strong influence on the positive attitude towards drugs. In general, the mentioned variables explain 0.69% of the variance of the positive attitude towards drugs. Therefore, a positive attitude towards addiction is a function of feeling the need to use drugs, which itself is a function of exclusion and social label.

The present article studies the perception of geriatricians about the phenomenon of aging. This research has been done with a qualitative phenomenological approach. The statistical population includes all professors and researchers who have worked in the field of aging and demography. Eighteen people were selected as the sample size based on the saturation rule by purposive sampling. Data collection tools were in-depth interviews and reading theoretical texts on aging in social work of the elderly, which were finally analyzed using thematic analysis technique. From the analysis of the findings, three main themes were extracted about the needs, consequences of aging and its problem-solving, which indicates that the elderly have economic, social and health needs and the aging of the population has various consequences in economic, social and It has a culture in the structure of the country that has both positive and negative aspects. Also, population aging is considered as not only a challenge but also an opportunity for both the country and the elderly if it is done through planning, strengthening the active population and positive replacement. The results showed that the elderly have many needs and the aging of the population has consequences that are not only negative and social workers as one of the main forces to prevent the aging of the crisis and use it as an opportunity to structure the country. .
