Background and purpose: The impact of parental divorce on children always has consequences that threaten their lives and future. Therefore, the aim of the research was to formulate an efficient parenting model in divorced mothers and its effectiveness on the psychological capital of teenagers.
Research method: The current research was a semi-experimental type and was conducted with a pre-test-post-test design with two control and experimental groups. The statistical population of this research included divorced mothers with teenage children who referred to counseling and psychology centers in Tehran. The sample size was determined through the G*power software in such a way that the study has the necessary power to detect a difference of at least 1 unit in the level of anxiety sensitivity between the experimental group and the control group. Assuming the probability of the first type of error is 5% and the probability of the second type of error is 20%, and assuming a standard deviation of 0.9, the number of samples equal to about 15 people for each group was obtained. Therefore, among the statistical population, 30 qualified volunteers were randomly entered into the study and randomly divided into two experimental and control groups (each group contains 15 people). The implementation method was that after selecting the people of the sample group and before starting the treatment program, Lutans et al.'s psychological capital questionnaires (2007) were distributed between both groups. After that, the effective parenting training program for divorced mothers was implemented on the experimental group (in the form of a 90-minute session and each session once a week) and the control group was not subjected to any treatment program. At the end, the post-test was done again from both groups. Also, after the end of the research, in order to maintain the ethical standards in the research, the treatment programs implemented in this research were also implemented on the control group. The criteria for entering the research include: the criteria for entering the research include 1- being a divorced mother, 2- having a teenage child, 3- at least a diploma level of education, 4- not participating in other therapeutic interventions at the same time, and the criteria for exiting the research also include 1- absenteeism more than Out of three sessions, 2- it was non-observance of group therapy rules.
Also, when participating in the research, the participants were free to withdraw from the research at any time and provide individual information. They were assured that the information would remain confidential and this was fully respected. Data analysis was carried out in two parts: descriptive statistics and inferential statistics. At the level of descriptive statistics of frequency, percentage, mean and standard deviation and at the level of inferential statistics in order to check the normality of the data using the Kolmogorov Smirnov test and to check the homogeneity of variances using the Lone test and also the assumption of homogeneity of the slope of the regression lines by checking the effect Group-pretest interactions were used in the regression model. Finally, univariate analysis of covariance was used. Data analysis was done in SPSS software version 24 and the significance level of the tests was considered to be 0.05.
Findings: The findings of the research showed that the effect of efficient parenting model in divorced mothers on adolescent psychological capital was significant (P<0.001).
Conclusion: It can be said that an efficient parenting model for divorced mothers is a suitable method for increasing the psychological capital of teenagers.
