“…For the example, the results are consistent with the results of Ghasemi who found that quality of life group therapy combined of the positive psychology and the cognitive-behavior approach enhanced indices of mental health and mental well-being [13]. Likewise, Toghyani et al indicated that the quality of life therapy can increase positive affection and decrease negative affection and as a result can enhance male adults' mental health [14].

Introduction: The present study sought to examine the effectiveness of quality of life therapy on increasing happiness among patients with major depression. Methods: The research followed an experimental research design with an experimental and a control group. To this end, among the statistical population of the study that consisted of all individuals with major depression disorder, 30 individuals were randomly selected and placed in two groups (experimental and control). The experimental group individually received an intervention with a trend based on quality of life improvement for 10 sessions. The control group received no such treatment. Beck's Depression Inventory and Oxford Happiness Questionnaire were used in two occasions of pretest and posttest. Data analysis was performed using descriptive statistics and multivariate analysis of covariance. Results: The results revealed that quality of life therapy reduced depression and increased happiness among the subjects on the posttest (p < 0.01). Conclusion: This research found two important results. First, it was revealed that quality of life therapy had high efficiency in treating depression considered as a resistant disorder to treatment. Second, it was indicated that focus on happiness in the treatment of major depression disorder can significantly help patients recover.

“…In line with the results of research by Frisch (1992) who found that quality of life can reduce depressive symptoms in college students.

In another setting, it was found that quality of life can improve well-being in clients who have chronic illnesses (Rodriguez et al, 2005;.…”

The purpose of this study is to find a general picture of quality of life in students and to find the relationship between quality of life and burnout. Quality of life of students explains the level of satisfaction of student life and is a predictor of academic success. This relates to evaluating the satisfaction of life domains (health, self-esteem, spiritual, money or standards of living, work, play, helping, friendship, sibling relationships, spiritual, learning, creativity, family, neighborhood and community). Burnout is defined as a condition where individuals experience emotional exhaustion, depersonalization and reduce self-efficacy. The study used a cross-sectional design with a sample of 469 students. Data was collected using Quality of Life Inventory and Student Burnout Scale. Data analysis techniques used the Pearson correlation method to determine the relationship between quality of life and burnout among students. The F-Test technique is used to compare differences in quality of life based on gender. The results showed no significant difference in the quality of life of men and women. The highest life domain is family. While the lowest life domain is love, the relationship between quality of life and burnout was found to be negatively correlated. The burnout dimension consisting of emotional exhaustion, depersonalization and reducing academic efficacy was found to be negatively correlated with quality of life, based on the results of the study needed for the development of counseling interventions to improve the quality of life to reduce burnout in students.

“…In the simplest terms, QoL is defined as: inner subjective personal satisfaction across 4 basic 51 domains; physical, emotional, social and vocational (Frisch, 2006). QoL interventions from a 52 positive psychology point of view, aim at promoting a life satisfaction in which humans identify, 53 pursue, and fulfill their most cherished goals, desires and wishes across all valued areas of life 54 (Toghyani et al, 2011). In the context of ASD, QoL Clinical Practice (QoLCP) normalizes the life of 55 patients and their families so that it does not fall below a predetermined cutoff threshold (Morsi 56 et al, 2016) 1 offers a strategy for management of 16 areas of life over 8 65 therapeutic sessions (Frisch, 2006, Toghyani et al, 2011.…”
