Abstract: (456 Views)
The present study aimed to determine the effectiveness of time perspective therapy on physical self-concept and psychological helplessness in postmenopausal women. This study was semi-experimental with a pre-test and post-test design with a control group. The statistical population was all postmenopausal women who were referred to the health-treatment centers of Meshgin Shahr in the second half of 2022, of which 36 people were selected as a sample using the available sampling method and were randomly divided into two groups of test (n 18) and control (n17). The experimental group participated in 90-minute sessions of Zimbardo's time perspective therapy (2012) for 6 weeks. Marsh's (1996) Physical Self-Description Questionnaire (PSDQ) and the Depression, Anxiety, and Stress Scale (DASS) (Laubiond and Laubiond, 1995) were used to collect data. The collected data were analyzed by multivariate analysis of variance test. The findings showed that by controlling the effect of the pre-test, there is a significant difference between the post-test mean of physical self-concept and psychological helplessness in the two groups of time perspective therapy and control at the level of 0.01. It can be concluded that time perspective therapy can effectively increase physical self-esteem and reduce psychological helplessness in postmenopausal women.
