The statistical population of the study includes couples who committed adultery and have referred to counseling centers in Andishe city in 2018. 24 couples were randomly assigned to three groups (two experimental groups and one control group) by available sampling. The Subjects answered Connor and Davidson resilience questionnaire. Univariate analysis of covariance was used to analyze the data.
Results: The results showed that integrative couple therapy (F=13/489, 𝝶2=0/325) and integrative behavioral couple therapy (F=31/988, 𝝶2= 0/533) re effective in increasing the resilience of couples affected by infidelity. Subjects scores in the post-test Connor and Davidson resilience scale had a significant increase compared to the pre-test scores (p <0.05).
