The study was a quasiexperimental research and conducted through the pre-test, post-test, and follow up design with control group. By using purposeful sampling method, 3 centers were selected in Autumn and Winter 2015 and from among them 30 foster care adolescent girls were selected based on inclusion criteria and assigned to the experimental and the control group randomly (15 persons each group). The experimental group received 10 sessions of 90 minutes’ positive group intervention, but the control group received no intervention. All subjects completed the Psychological Well-being Scale (Riff), Resilience Scale (Connor& Davidson) and Oxford HAPPINESS Inventory (Argyle, Martin & Crosland) at the pre-test and post-test as well as after 45 days at the follow-up stages, The results of multivariate covariance indicated significant and considerable increase in the psychological well-being, RESILIENCY and HAPPINESS in the experimental ‘as compared with the control group at the post-test stage. These results were maintained in the 45days’ follow-up stage, too. Based on the results of the present study, POSITIVE INTERVENTION can be used for improvement of psychological well-being, RESILIENCY, and HAPPINESS in foster care adolescent girls.
