Abstract: (1238 Views)
Background: Marital infidelity is one of the most destructive issues faced by couples and is one of the most difficult challenges to intervention. Objective: The present research was conducted to determine different methods and models of intervention and psychological interventions in marital infidelity. Method: The type of study is a systematic review. The target population of this research is the published articles related to extramarital relations or marital infidelity between the years 2018 and 2018. For this purpose, all the articles published in Farsi databases, including the Information Bank of the country's publications (Magiran) and the database of the Scientific Information Center of Academic Jihad (SID), and English databases including Google Scholar, ScienceDirect, PubMed, with a time interval of the last 10 years, were extracted. became. From the total of 117 articles obtained, after a more detailed examination, 25 articles were included in the study. Findings: The obtained results showed that group therapy methods are most effective in the intervention of infidelity and this was shown in the follow-up scores of several months. Also, couple therapy is more effective than individual therapy due to its effects on interpersonal relationships and its stability even after a long period. After that, in individual interventions, integrated approaches showed better results in less time, and it is next in rank after emotional therapy. Conclusion: By reviewing the articles on different intervention methods for infidelity, it was concluded that seeing people who have a common pain with them is effective in the intervention process (group therapy) and when couples participate in intervention together. It will be effective due to receiving sympathy from the betrayer. Also, integrated therapy, due to the combination of methods, and then emotion-oriented individual therapy, due to the high level of negative emotions, play a role in infidelity.
