Addiction is associated with neural degeneration and brain morphological changes that effects cognitive functions. The purpose of this study was to compare executive functions in drug-dependent and drug-independent men. 50 drug-dependent men with convenient sampling selected and matched with 50 drug-independent men in age, intelligence and education and compared in neuropsychological tests. For the data analysis, MANOVA was used. The results showed that drug-dependents individuals performed significantly weaker than drug-independent in components of working memory, attention, and response inhibition, while there was no significant difference in the ability to plan. According to the results can be said that the deficit in executive function due to drug dependent should be consider in treatment of this person.
