Positive treatment sessions were performed on the test group during eight 90-minute sessions and the control group did not receive any intervention. The data obtained from the questionnaires were analyzed using repeated measures analysis of variance. Results: The results showed that there was a significant difference between the mean scores of pre-test and post-test and follow-up in the variables of Meaning level, Quality of Life, and Happiness.
