This study is a randomized controlled counseling intervention with pre-test, post-test and control groups. After obtaining informed consent from 80 women affected by domestic violence that referred to the health centers of the villages covered by Al-Kooh Mashhad Health Center (Mashhad Al-Kooh Health Center, Michan, Mosleh Abad) and Mashhad Al-Kobeh Health Center, and are eligible to enter Rct are. A woman who has been subjected to domestic violence is someone who has obtained at least one score on the (cts2) questionnaire .

Then, these people are randomly divided into two groups of intervention (n = 40) and control (n = 40). The members of the intervention group in groups of 10 are treated in 8 sessions of 90 minutes once a week based on "acceptance and commitment treatment" based on Hayes (2006) approach by a trained consultant (researcher) in Mashhad AL-koubeh Health Center. The control group also receives 8 counseling sessions once a week by the same "health education" consultant in groups of 10 at the same center. One week after the end of the eighth session and one month later, the questionnaires are completed again by trained questioners for both groups.

The instruments studied in this study include demographic questionnaire, conflict resolution tactics questionnaire (cts 2) and resilience questionnaire (Connor-Davidson). Data analysis is performed using descriptive and inferential statistics with SPSS software version 23.

Sampling:

In this project, (80 people) eligible women (with at least one score from the CTS2 questionnaire) are selected through available health centers in the villages covered by Mashhad-e-Kobeh Health Center and Mashhad-e-Koboeh Health Center by available sampling method. They are randomly divided into intervention and control groups.

Randomization type:

Randomization is blockchain. 20 blocks with a volume of 4 are used, two allocations for the control group and two allocations for the intervention group. Random sequencing is done using a web-based random site (https://www.sealedenvelope.com).

Sequence Hiding: Sequence hiding is when someone outside the research team has a random assignment list. As soon as a person is eligible to participate in the study, the sampler contacts the person who has a random assignment sequence and he / she gives the code to the participants to enter the study according to the sequence list.

Acceptance and commitment therapy sessions are held by a researcher who has learned the workshop before starting the project. In the evaluation phase, one week and one month after the intervention, the questionnaires are completed by trained questioners. The statistical consultant who will help analyze the data is unaware of the codes of the participants in the groups. Therefore, the study will be of the three-blind type.

Data collection method:

Questionnaires are completed by pre-intervention interviews by trained researchers and samplers and in the evaluation phase after the intervention and follow-up by trained interviewers. Before starting the study, questioners with high public and social relations are selected for sampling and during a session, the necessary training is given to them by the researcher. During the briefing, the objectives of the study and the work process, the sampling method, the confidentiality of customer information and the privacy of the participant, and all ethical principles related to domestic violence research are taught to the samplers.

Determining and comparing the mean resilience score in the intervention and control groups, before, one week after the intervention and one month after the intervention.

Functional purpose:

If the effectiveness of acceptance and commitment therapy in improving the resilience of women affected by domestic violence is confirmed, this intervention method can be used in counseling centers and its use can be taught to service providers, especially midwives.

Having experience of domestic violence by the husband for at least the last year.

Sequencing will be centralized in such a way that the list of random allocation sequences is provided to someone outside the research team. As soon as a person is eligible to participate in the study, the sampler contacts the person who has the random assignment sequence and he or she, according to the sequence list, gives the code to the participants to enter the study. Acceptance and commitment therapy sessions are held by a trained researcher. At the evaluation stage, one week and one month after the intervention, the questionnaires are completed by trained questioners. The statistical consultant who will assist in the data analysis will be unaware of the codes of the participants in the groups. Therefore, the study will be of the three-blind type.
