description The present study aims to determine the effect of the developed parallel process model on the resilience of spouses of post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) veterans. This quasi-experimental investigation comprised 30 spouses of veterans diagnosed with PTSD, segregated into two distinct groups during the year 2023: an intervention group, consisting of 15 individuals, and a control group of equal size. To gather data for this study, a demographic questionnaire capturing information on age, veteran percentage, education level, and occupation, alongside the Connor-Davidson Resilience Scale (CD-RISC), was utilized. Preceding the intervention, the intervention group exhibited a mean resilience score of 45.06 (SD=3.82), which increased to 61.13 (SD=4.92) after the intervention, indicating a statistically significant difference as determined by the paired t-test (P<0.01). Conversely, in the control group, the resilience rate was 46.53 (SD=5.71) before the intervention and 47.00 (SD=6.20) after the intervention; however, the paired t-test did not reveal a significant difference (P=0.7). In sum, the implementation of educational methodologies grounded in theoretical frameworks and cognitive models emerges as a pivotal factor in augmenting the adaptation and resilience levels of spouses of veterans grappling with PTSD.
