Abstract

Introduction: INFERTILE COUPLES are faced with multiple psychological problems. This semi-experimental study aimed to examine the effect of the FORDYCE HAPPINESS model on HARDINESS and marital ADJUSTMENT in INFERTILE COUPLES.Methods: In this quasi-expremental study, the population was consisted of INFERTILE COUPLES in Quchan and Faruj cities in 2015. Twenty COUPLES (n=40) were voluntarily selected and randomly assigned into the experimental (10 COUPLES) and control (10 COUPLES) groups. COUPLES in the experimental group received a psycho-educational program on HAPPINESS according to the FORDYCE HAPPINESS model in 14 sessions (90 minutes). Data instruments included HARDINESS and Spanier's Dyadic ADJUSTMENT Scales.Results: Repeated measures analysis of variance showed that an interactive effect of the group and time of the test was significant on each of the dependent variables (hardiness and marital ADJUSTMENT) (P<0.01). Thus, the FORDYCE HAPPINESS model was significantly effective on the HARDINESS and marital ADJUSTMENT among the COUPLES. Also, the mean difference between pre-test and post-test to measure both variables was significant (P<0.01) and this was statistically significant in favor of the post-test. The mean difference of the post-test and follow-up was not significant in any of the dependent variables (P>0.05), but the difference between the mean values of the pre-test and follow-up in all two dependent variables was statistically significant (P<0.01).Conclusions: This study shows that the FORDYCE HAPPINESS model training has a stable effect on HARDINESS and marital ADJUSTMENT. Therefore, we offer implementation of this method in improving the lives of INFERTILE COUPLES in nursing infertility centers.
