Incoherence of research, lack of accumulation, and inattention to the deeper layers of the subject in areas of addiction and family necessitate offering integrated data from research and identifying studies gaps. Thus, this study seeks to combine and compare research findings in the field of addiction and family, identify common points among studies and obtain consistent results from the scattered findings in this field. This article uses meta-analysis methods and comprehensive meta-analysis (CMA2) software. Of 67 related studies, 26 studies which had necessary information for meta-analysis were selected as the final sample. The results showed that flexibility in the family, family disputes, presence of parents at home, family support, communication between family members, sexual violence, divorce, and death of a spouse are the important factors with an impact on addiction. This research showed that insufficient attention has been paid to factors affecting family and the existing studies are not consistent with the needs in this field.
