BACKGROUND: Happiness is among the factors that promote mental health in mothers with unplanned pregnancy. The present study aimed to determine the impact of attachment skills training on happiness among women with unplanned pregnancy. MATERIALS AND METHODS: This clinical trial was conducted on 84 women with unplanned pregnancy referred to three prenatal clinics in Shiraz in 2018. The participants were randomly divided into an intervention group and a control group using permutation block. At first, the participants were requested to sign written informed consent form, demographic information form, and mental health questionnaire. Then, they were asked to complete Oxford Happiness Questionnaire and Cranley's Maternal-Fetal Attachment Scale. The intervention group received attachment training through six 90-min sessions, while the control group underwent the hospital's routine care. The two groups were required to fill out the study questionnaires once more after 4 weeks after the intervention. After all, the data were analyzed using Chi-square test, Fisher's exact test, independent t -test, and ANOVA. RESULTS: There was a significant difference between the two groups' pretest and posttest mean scores of happiness ( P = 0.0001). The results showed that in the experimental group, pretraining and posttraining period mean scores were 89.64 (7.2) and 93.13 (6.09), respectively; while in the control group, pretraining and posttraining period mean scores were, respectively, 91.69 (9.96) and 91 (8.82). The difference between the two groups was statistically significant. No significant relationship was observed between happiness and the couples' occupations, number of pregnancies, and number of miscarriages in the two groups ( P > 0.05). CONCLUSION: The mean score of happiness increased after the training, being significantly different from that in the control group. Therefore, happiness is a changeable feature that can be promoted among pregnant women via interventional methods.

Therefore, it is imperative to change curricula goals, teaching materials and content, teaching methods and tools, and in general, all teaching and learning processes in order to keep pace with recent innovations. Transformational teaching is a kind of educational practice that can transform teachers, present them with new challenges, and may even give them new perspectives (Luyten and Bazo, 2019). Transformational teaching usually takes place in an educational setting where knowledge is passed on from a teacher to learners. In this approach, students can simply adapt themselves to their teacher to learn new
