regarding the management of the patients, especially those with chronic diseases, since families and particularly mothers
cope with a high mental stress to confront the stressors, it is needed to teach an appropriate strategy so as to support
and adapt them so that they can improve their resilience and the ability to cope with stressful conditions and factors.
Thus, the present study aimed to determine the effect of the educational-psychological interventions on the resilience of
the mothers of the children with chronic liver disease leading to cirrhosis. The present study was conducted on 83
mothers who had children with chronic liver disease leading to cirrhosis (41 in the control and 42 in the intervention
group) in health centers affiliated to Shiraz Medical University, Shiraz, Iran, 2016. The mother’s resiliencies were
assessed using Conner Davidson questionnaires before, immediately and 1 month after the training. The training was
performed through six 45-minute sessions in 2 weeks. The data were analyzed using the SPSS statistical software paired
and independent t-test, chi-square, and repeated measure analysis of variance. The findings of this study indicated that
there was no significant difference between the mothers’ resilience scores before training (P=0.524). Moreover, it was
shown that there was no significant difference between resilience scores before training and one month after training in
the control group (P=0.339) while there was a significant difference between the average scores of the mothers’
resilience in the intervention group one month after training (P=0.000). this study indicated that providing necessary
trainings can increase the resilience level of the mothers of the children with chronic liver disease leading to cirrhosis
and improve the ability to cope with and confront stressful conditions.
