Abstract :
The purpose of this study was examining the effect of self-efficacy group training on psychological well-being, and social adjustment in maladaptive adolescent boys.The research design was pre-test and post-test with control group. The sample of this study consisted of 33 maladapted male students of a cultural and educational boarding hub selected by purposeful sampling. First, the pre-test questionnaires were implemented, including the short form of Ryff’s Psychological Well-being Questionnaire (1989) and the short form of the California Social Adjustment Questionnaire (1939). Subjects were then randomly assigned to experimental and control groups. Then the experimental group received self-efficacy group training, but the control group not received intervention. After the intervention sessions, post-test was administered for two groups. Data were analyzed using univariate analysis of covariance. The results of analysis of covariance showed significant difference between the post-test hope scores (P<0.001); and social adjustment (P< 0.001) of the two groups of malevolent adolescent boys.
