Abstract

The purpose of this study was to determine the effectiveness of self-control training on the resilience and self-efficacy of mothers of mentally disabled students. To examine this, 36 mothers of mental retarded students in Qom city were selected through purposive sampling. Participants were divided into two experimental and control groups and tested in In the form of a quasi-experimental design. The experimental group received 10 sessions (weekly two sessions) in the self-control training program, while the control group was engaged in normal activities during this time. The Persian version of Rosenbaum's self-control scale (1980), the Connor –Davidson Resilience Scale (2003) and Sherer Self-efficacy Scale (1982) were used to collect information in pre-test and post-test phases. The results were analyzed using Analysis of covariance (ANCOVA). At first, it was found that self-control training led to improvement of self-control performance of participants in the experimental group (F = 84.394, p≤ 0.01), In fact it turned out that the training was done correctly. The results of ANCOVA also indicated a significant increase in resilience in the course of self-control learning (F = 38.188, p≤ 0.01). Finally, it was found that self-control training had no significant effect on self-efficacy of participants (F = 1.542, p > 0.05).
