Abstract: Emotion dysregulation, negative affect (anxiety, depression), and opioid craving were explored in persons with OUD (n=76). Regression analyses suggest that emotion dysregulation explains the associations between depression, anxiety, and craving. Specific dysregulation subscales were also run in these models. A lack of emotional clarity was associated with depression and craving.
