Abstract: (370 Views)
The aim of this study was to investigate the effectiveness of Intensive Short-Term Dynamic Psychotherapy (ISTDP) on stress among female seventh-grade students with social anxiety in District 3 of Tehran. The present study was applied in terms of purpose and employed a quasi-experimental design with a pretest-posttest and a control group. The statistical population comprised all female seventh-grade students with social anxiety in schools of District 3 of Tehran during the academic year 2025. The sample consisted of 20 students (10 in the experimental group and 10 in the control group) selected based on the cut-off score (50) of the Connor et al. (2000) Social Anxiety Scale and in coordination with school counselors, and were then randomly assigned to the two groups. Data collection instruments included the Connor et al. (2000) Social Anxiety Scale, the Lovibond and Lovibond (1995) Depression, Anxiety and Stress Scale (DASS-21), and the ISTDP intervention protocol based on Davanloo's (1990) approach. Data were analyzed using SPSS software version 26 at both descriptive (mean, standard deviation) and inferential (analysis of covariance) levels. The results of analysis of covariance indicated that Intensive Short-Term Dynamic Psychotherapy had a significant effect on reducing stress in female students with social anxiety, and the results of the Bonferroni post hoc test showed that the mean stress scores of the experimental group in the posttest phase were significantly lower than those of the control group.
