Efficacy of resilience-based intervention on psychological capital and satisfaction with life among mothers of children with autism spectrum disorders
Purpose
Examine the impact of a resilience-focused intervention on psychological capital and overall life satisfaction of mothers who provide care to children with autism spectrum disorders.
Design and methods
A quasi-experimental design was executed at the Abdullah Altamimi Centre in Unaizah City, Qassim region. Eighty mothers of children with autism spectrum disorders participated, divided into intervention and control groups. Participants completed self-administered questionnaires, including the 24-item Psychological Capital Questionnaire and the five-item Satisfaction with Life Scale. The intervention consisted of eight weekly sessions on building resilience and psychological capital.
Results
The results revealed significant improvements in psychological capital and life satisfaction among mothers in the intervention group (p = 0.000). Specifically, mean scores for overall psychological capital increased from 62.7 to 100.7, while life satisfaction scores rose from 12.8 to 28.3. Additionally, strong correlations were found between psychological capital and life satisfaction post-intervention (p < 0.001), indicating that enhanced psychological resources were associated with improved life satisfaction.
Conclusion
The study found that resilience-based training can improve psychological capital and life satisfaction among mothers of children with autism spectrum disorder. This cost-effective method provides essential tools and resources for parents, particularly mothers, who play a vital role in their children's development.
Practice implications
By enhancing psychological capital—encompassing optimism, hope, self-efficacy, and resilience—healthcare providers can equip these mothers with effective coping strategies to manage caregiving challenges. Nurses and mental health professionals should consider developing tailored training sessions and support groups that focus on building resilience, which can significantly improve the well-being and life satisfaction of caregivers.
