Abstract

Objective: Spiritual therapy is recognized as an effective treatment for most psychological problems. This study aimed to investigate the effectiveness of group spiritual therapy on resilience and coping styles of families of addicts quitting drugs.
Method: The research method was quasi-experimental with a pre-test-post-test and a control group design. The statistical population included all families of addicts who were quitting in a camp in Shahreza city. The statistical sample consisted of 30 families of these addicts who were selected through a purposeful sampling method and randomly assigned into experimental and control groups. The instruments used in this study were the Connor and Davidson Resilience Scale, and the Moss and Billings Coping Styles Questionnaire. Spiritual group therapy was held in 11 sessions of 90 minutes for the experimental group. Covariance analysis was used to analyze the collected data via SPSS-21 software.
Results: The results showed that group spiritual therapy increased the resilience (p≤0.001) and problem-focused coping style (p≤0.001) of the subjects in the experimental group and decreased their emotion-focused coping style (p≤0.001).
Conclusion: The results indicated that spiritual group therapy could explain the high rate of change related to the resilience and coping styles of families of addicts under treatment.
