Effectiveness of psychological reconstruction after divorce on feelings of inferiority, emotional empowerment, and distress tolerance in divorced men with child custody
The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of psychological reconstruction intervention after divorce on feelings of inferiority, emotional competence, and distress tolerance in divorced men with child custody. This research was quasi-experimental with a pretest-posttest control group design. The statistical population included divorced men with child custody in the city of Isfahan in the first half of 1403 AH. Using purposive sampling, 30 of these men were selected and randomly assigned to two groups: experimental (15 people) and control (15 people). The data collection tools included the Khodadadi and Bahrami Inferiority Feelings Questionnaire (2012), the Mars Emotion Self-Regulation Strategies Questionnaire (2000), and the Simmons and Gaher Distress Tolerance Questionnaire (2005). The Fisher and Alberti (2017) divorce reconstruction package was implemented on the experimental group over 8 sessions of 90 minutes. Data were analyzed by analysis of covariance using SPSS-22 software. The results showed that there was a significant difference between the two groups in the research variables and that psychological reconstruction intervention after divorce was effective in reducing feelings of inferiority and increasing distress tolerance and emotional competence in divorced men with child custody (P≤0.05) .
