Objective: The objective of this study was to develop a structural model for predicting psychological well-being based on mindfulness, with the mediating role of resilience, in women on the verge of divorce in Isfahan.
Methods and Materials: This research utilized a descriptive, correlational approach with structural equation modeling (SEM) as the primary analytical technique. The statistical population included all women who visited counseling centers in Isfahan in 2022. A sample of 302 participants was selected based on Morgan's table. The data were collected using standardized questionnaires, including Ryff’s Psychological Well-Being Scale, the Five Facet Mindfulness Questionnaire (FFMQ), and the Connor-Davidson Resilience Scale (CD-RISC). The model’s fit was assessed using Amos-24 software after verifying the assumptions of normality, missing data, and outliers.
Findings: The findings demonstrated that mindfulness is significantly related to psychological well-being in women, with resilience playing a significant mediating role in this relationship. The structural model showed a good fit with the data, with mindfulness explaining 33.2% of the variance in resilience and both mindfulness and resilience together explaining 82.5% of the variance in psychological well-being. The direct effect of mindfulness on psychological well-being was significant, as was the indirect effect mediated by resilience.
Conclusion: The study concludes that mindfulness is a strong predictor of psychological well-being in women on the verge of divorce, and resilience significantly mediates this relationship. The findings suggest that enhancing mindfulness and resilience could be effective strategies for improving psychological well-being in this population.
