Abstract

The current research aims to determine the effectiveness of the self-talk method in reducing emotional divorce among married university students. The recent study is a quasi-experimental design with an initial test, a post-test, and a follow-up test, with two groups (experimental and control), and the basic research sample consisted of (40) male and female students. According to the scores obtained from the emotional divorce scale, the scale was distributed to the students three times: the pre-test, the post-test, and the follow-up test (less than 60 days). The results of the study showed the effectiveness of the counseling method in reducing emotional divorce among married university students and the presence of statistically significant differences. Between the ranks of emotional divorce scores between the experimental and control groups for the posttest, and when comparisons were made, differences were found in favor of the experimental group. According to the current research results, the researcher reached several conclusions, recommendations, and proposals.
