Abstract: (23 Views)
The present study aimed to determine the effectiveness of group-based Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) on reducing job anxiety and improving resilience among employees in oil-industry regions. The research employed a quasi-experimental design with a pretest–posttest and a control group. The statistical population consisted of male employees working at the Bandar Abbas Oil Refinery Company in 2024. From this population, 30 participants were selected through purposive sampling and were randomly assigned to an experimental group and a control group. Data were collected using the Job Anxiety Questionnaire (Osipow, 1987) and the Resilience Questionnaire (RQ; Connor et al., 2003). The experimental group received eight weekly group sessions of Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, while the control group received no intervention. Data were analyzed using multivariate analysis of covariance (MANCOVA). The findings indicated that, after controlling for pretest effects, there was a statistically significant difference between the experimental and control groups in posttest mean scores of job anxiety and resilience at the 0.01 significance level. Based on these results, group-based Acceptance and Commitment Therapy is an effective psychotherapeutic intervention for reducing job anxiety and enhancing resilience among employees in oil-industry regions.
Keywords: Group Based Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Occupational Anxiety, Resilience, Employees in Oil Regions.
