The present study was conducted to determine the effectiveness of the meaning therapy program on the general well-being, resilience, and quality of life of patients with multiple sclerosis. The research method was semi-experimental with a pre-test-post-test design with a control group. The statistical population included all the patients with multiple sclerosis of the Raad Mehrabani Charitable Institute in Arak City in 2021, who were selected through the available sampling method and based on the entry and exit criteria, 30 people were randomly selected into two groups of 15 people, experimental and alternative evidence. became The measurement tools in this research were Dapuy's general well-being questionnaire (1972), Connor and Davidson's resilience (2003), and the World Health Organization's quality of life (1998). The experimental group underwent the meaning therapy program for 14 sessions of 45 minutes, and the control group did not receive any intervention. Statistical data analysis was done using the multivariate covariance analysis method. The findings showed that by controlling the effect of the pre-test, there is a significant difference between the post-test of the experimental group and the control in the general well-being, resilience, and quality of life of patients with multiple sclerosis (p=0.01). Based on the results of the research, it can be said that meaningful therapy is a suitable intervention method to improve the general well-being, resilience, and quality of life of patients with multiple sclerosis.
