Abstract: (757 Views)
Background: Studies have reported that negative experiences in the families of veterans and martyrs may lead to a decrease in mental health. Therefore, interventions that can increase the crisis of meaning and psychological well-being to face the challenges and get rid of the absurdity and futility in this society are of great importance. But there is a study gap in the field of application of these treatments in this society.
Aims: This study was conducted to investigate the impact of education based on time perspective on psychological well-being, sense of meaning in life, and vitality of wives of martyrs and veterans.
Methods: The method of this study was quasi-experimental with a pretest-posttest design along with a control and experimental group. Using available sampling, 28 wives of martyrs and veterans of Shiraz participated in this study and were randomly assigned to the control group (n=14), and experimental group (n=14). Ryff Psychological well-being Questionnaire (Ryff, 1995), Meaning of Life Questionnaire (Steger, 2005), and Vitality Questionnaire (Rayan and Fredrik, 1997) were used to collect data. Time perspective intervention was performed in 6 sessions. Data were analyzed using a multivariate analysis of covariance.
Results: Overall, the findings showed that time perspective intervention affects the meaning in life (p˂0.05). However, it had no significant effect on the vitality and psychological well-being scores (p˃0.05).
Conclusion: It can be concluded that time perspective intervention can be considered as a method to improve the sense of the meaning of life in the spouses of martyrs and veterans. More studies are needed to generalize the findings of the study.
