The Effectiveness Of Emotion Regulation Training On Resilience And General Health Of Bullied Students

Abstract

The purpose of this study was to investigate the effectiveness of emotion regulation training on the resilience and general health of bullied students. The design of the semi-experimental research was pre-test-post-test and one-month follow-up with a control group. To select the sample, 60 students were selected from the bully students and randomly assigned to the experimental and control groups. Both groups were evaluated using Connor and Davidson's resilience scale and Goldberg's general health questionnaire. Emotion regulation training interventions were conducted in the experimental group for 8 ninety-minute sessions. The results of covariance analysis showed that the average post-test scores of resilience and general health of the experimental group were significantly higher than the average post-test scores of the control group. Based on the findings of the research, it can be said that emotion regulation training is effective in increasing the resilience and general health of bullied students.
