摘要
Parenting stress can cause psychological changes such as anxiety and failure to assume the maternal role, which affects family satisfaction. The present study used a classic experimental design with a pretest and post-test and a control group. The convenience sampling method was employed to randomly select 40 individuals, who were then equally divided into experimental and control groups. The experimental group underwent fourteen sessions (90-minute sessions per week) of positive psychotherapy. The results indicated that positive psychotherapy had significant effects on the improvement of parenting stress and family satisfaction (p < 0.001) in the experimental group at the post-test stage.
