Abstract
The aim of this study was to investigate the effectiveness of giving meaning to suffering education based on integrated monotheistic treatment on increasing the resilience of mothers with children with disabilities. This study was conducted with a quantitative approach and a quasi-experimental method using a pre-test-post-test design with a control group. The statistical population consisted of all mothers with one or more disabled children in Yazd. Using the available sampling method, 30 people were selected as a sample and allocated in two groups of 15 (experimental and control). Participants answered the Connor-Davidson Resilience Questionnaire in the pre-test and post-test stages. Meaningful training in suffering with an integrated monotheistic approach was provided to the members of the experimental group in 8 sessions of 90-120 minutes. Finally, the research data were analyzed by analysis of covariance. The results showed that teaching meaning to suffering, based on the Islamic view, and with the approach of integrated monotheistic treatment has been effective in increasing the resilience of mothers with disabled children. Based on the research results, it is suggested that medical centers and institutions pay attention to this training in promoting resilience of mothers.
