Abstract: (161 Views)
The present study aimed to determine the effectiveness of acceptance and commitment therapy on psychological capital, hyperemotion, and family functioning of mothers of autistic children. The present study was a quasi-experimental study with a pretest-posttest design and a control group. The statistical population of the study included mothers of autistic children in Isfahan in 20 AH, from which 30 were selected using convenience sampling and randomly assigned to two groups (15 in the experimental group and 15 in the control group) as experimental and control groups. The measurement tools included the Lutens Psychological Capital Questionnaire (PCQ, 2004), the Mittmannsgraber et al. Metaemotional Scale (MEQ, 2009), and the Epstein Family Functioning Questionnaire (FFQ, 1983). The experimental group underwent an acceptance and commitment intervention for 8 sessions, 90 minutes each, once a week, and the control group did not receive any intervention. Multivariate analysis of covariance was used to analyze the data. The results of the analysis of covariance showed that by controlling for the effect of the pretest between the means of psychological capital, metaemotion, and family functioning in the experimental and control groups, there was a significant difference at the 0.05 level. From the above findings, it can be concluded that acceptance and commitment therapy is effective in improving psychological capital, metaemotion, and family functioning of mothers with autistic children.
