Introduction: intellectual disability is one of the problems faced by families in different societies. The presence of a child with intellectual disability can endanger the physical and mental health of the family. The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of ROY adaptation model on the resilience of mothers of children with intellectual disability.
Methods: This experimental study was carried out on 50 mothers of children with intellectual disability of 6-14 years old in Gonbad-Kavoos city in 2017Sampling was done by random allocation method. The mothers were assigned to two groups of intervention and control. Demographic data questionnaire and CD-RIS resiliency questionnaire were completed. The intervention group completed five training sessions of 45 minutes. Two months later, both groups completed the questionnaires again. Data analysis was done by using independent t-test, paired t-test and covariance test using SPSS 21 software.
Results: The pre-interventional resiliency in the control group was 67/16 ± 12/54 and after the intervention was 65/56 ± 11/68. In the experimental group, before the intervention, 72.32 ± 17.37 and after the intervention 82.72 ± 12.92. Independent t-test between the intervention and control groups before and after the intervention showed no significant difference (p = 0.12), but after intervention, there was a significant difference (P <0.01). Also, the paired t-test before and after the intervention in the test group showed a significant difference in the test group (P = 0.004) and control group (P = 0.01). Also, covariance test showed a significant difference between pretest and control groups before and after the intervention (P <0.01). The coefficient of ITA 39.0 indicated that the effect of intervention was 39% on the level of restraint.
Conclusion: Using Roy adaptation theory, as an effective and low-cost intervention can    improve the resilience of mothers of children with intellectual disability.
