Abstract

Background: All theorists try to provide solid foundations for future actions in meeting strategic needs and combating inequalities in all areas by empowering women through the promotion of new ideas, training skills for activities in the economic sectors, raising the awareness of all members of the society of women roles (especially Female-headed households), and improving their welfare, but the problem is that whether training some skills such as positivism can be effective in empowering these women? Aims: This study aimed to examine the effectiveness of Group positive psychotherapy on the Quality of life, Life expectancy, and Social adjustment of Female-headed households. Method: This study was a quasi-experimental design with pretest-posttest and two-month follow-up with control group. A sample of 50 women who met the inclusion criteria of the research were selected through convenience sampling and placed randomly into experimental (25 people) and control (25 people) groups. Group positive psychotherapy (Rashid, 2015) was administered on the experimental group at twelve 90-minute sessions once a week. In this research, the applied instruments were the Quality of life scale (World health organization, 1993), the hope scale (Snyder and et al, 1991), and the Social adjustment scale (Bell, 1961). Results: The findings confirmed the effectiveness of Group positive psychotherapy on the Quality of life (p=0/007), Life expectancy (p=0/002), and Social adjustment (p=0/0001) of Female-headed households and also this effectiveness was stable in follow-up stage on the Quality of life (p=0/005), Life expectancy (p=0/002), and Social adjustment (p=0/0001). Conclusions: positive therapy increased Quality of life, Life expectancy and Social adjustment of Female-headed households.
