Introduction: Adolescents are among the groups that are most vulnerable due to puberty symmetry and corona prevalence. The aim of this study was to evaluate the effectiveness of acceptance and commitment therapy matrix training on reducing Internet addiction and the perception of family social support of adolescent girls during the outbreak of corona.
Methods: Quasi-experimental research method and pre-test-post-test design and one-month follow-up were performed with the control group. The statistical population of this study includes all high school girls in Bojnourd who were studying in the academic year 1399-1499. Out of 220 volunteers entering the research, 30 were purposeful and based on the criteria for entering the research, ie a score higher than the cut line (46) in the Internet addiction test and a score less than one standard deviation from the average of the normal sample (13.40) They were selected as a statistical sample on the family social support scale. Then they were replaced randomly by a simple lottery in two groups of 15 experimental and control. The experimental group received 90 minutes of educational interventions for 8 sessions and the control group did not receive any training. The research instruments were the Young Internet Addiction Questionnaire and the Procidano and Heller Family Social Support Questionnaire. Data analysis was performed using multivariate analysis of variance with repeated measures.
Results: The findings showed that Acceptance and Commitment Therapy Matrix training had a significant effect on reducing Internet addiction and increasing the perception of family social support of adolescent girls (P < 0.001).
Conclusions: According to the findings of the present study, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy Matrix training is effective on reducing Internet addiction and increasing the perception of family social support of adolescent girls.
