Abstract
Background and Purpose: Birth and child is associated with pressure and difficulty for the mother, but if
this child has a physical or mental disability, it will lead to consequences and reactions. Accordingly, the aim
of this study was to investigate the structural pattern of resilience, optimism and life expectancy with posttraumatic
growth in mothers with autistic children with the mediating role of religious beliefs.
Materials and Methods: The present research is of the correlation type. The statistical sample included
225 mothers with autistic children who were selected by purposive and available sampling from educational
centers and the Autism Spectrum Children Association in 2019. The tools used in this research were
Religious Attitudes Questionnaire (Serajzadeh, 1998), resiliency scale (Conner-Davidson,2003), optimism
questionnaire (Scheier-Carrer, 1985), life expectancy Scale (Miller, 1988) and post traumatic growth
questionnaire (Tedischi & Calhoun, 1996), and Pearson correlation coefficient, path analysis and bootstrap
method were used to analyze the data.
Result: The analysis of the findings showed that the structural model has a good fit and all predictor and
mediator variables can predict 0.41 of the dependent variable changes. Thus, religious beliefs mediate the
relationship between Resilience and hope and post traumatic growth, but do not mediate the relationship
between optimism and post traumatic growth.
Conclusion: According to the findings, it can be said that religious beliefs can mediate the relationship
between resilience and life expectancy with post-traumatic growth, but in the relationship between optimism
and post-traumatic growth, religious beliefs do not play a mediating role.
