Abstract

Background and Objective: Life satisfaction is a construct of subjective well-being that refers to how individuals evaluate the quality of specific aspects of their lives, such as work, marriage, health, and recreation. This component is also related to the quality of more general aspects of life, such as happiness, enthusiasm for life, and peace of mind. Therefore, the aim of the study was to determine the effectiveness of a health-oriented behavioral intervention on the life satisfaction of people with physical - motor disabilities working in government offices in Yasuj.
Method: This study was a quasi-experimental pre-test-post-test study with a control group. The statistical population consisted of people with physical - motor disabilities working in government offices in Yasuj city, of which 40 individuals (20 in the experimental group and 20 in the control group) were purposefully selected as the research sample. The subjects answered the life satisfaction questionnaire in the pre-test and post-test. Then, 8 sessions of a 90-minute health-oriented behavioral intervention were held for the experimental group, while the control group did not receive any intervention. The data were analyzed using Spss version 26and analysis of covariance (ANCOVA)
Findings: The results obtained from the post-test comparison of the life satisfaction component (including satisfaction with family, friends, work environment, living environment, and self) in the two groups, controlling for pre-test scores, showed that the scores of the life satisfaction component of  people with physical - motor disabilities who participated in the experimental group increased significantly compared to those in the control group (P ≤ 0.05). The highest satisfaction in the experimental group after participating in health-oriented behavioral intervention was "satisfaction with the living environment."
Conclusion: It can be concluded that health-oriented behavioral intervention can be  an effective approach to  increasing life satisfaction among people with physical - motor disabilities. It is suggested that such research be conducted among people with sensory disabilities, such as the blind and deaf, and be included in the research priorities of relvant institutions.
