This study was of a descriptive-correlation type and the statistical population included married women of Tabriz city. 321 samples were selected using a convenience sampling method and the link of the questionnaires was provided to them. The tools of this research included: Rees et al.'s self-compassion scale (2011), Abdollahi and Allen's (2022) romantic perfectionism scale (self-centered and other-centered), and Busby et al.'s (1995) marital quality measurement scale. . After entering the data into the computer, the data were analyzed using SPSS26 and PLS3 software using the structural equation modeling method. The results showed that self-compassion has a significant relationship with the quality of married life (P<0.001,β=0.384),on the other hand self-centered romantic perfectionism has a significant relationship with the quality of married life (P<0.001,β=0.361),also other-centered romantic perfectionism has a significant relationship with the quality of married life (P<0.001,β=-0.713). Self-compassion played a moderating role between self-oriented perfectionism and marital life quality, but it did not play a moderating role in relation to other-oriented perfectionism and marital life. According to these findings, the importance of getting to know the dimensions of romantic perfectionism and teaching the skills of self-compassion in pre-marriage and post-marriage counseling, both in preventing the decrease in the quality of marital life and in increasing the quality of marital life, doubles.

Abstract
| Autism spectrum disorder (ASD) significantly affects family dynamics and can impact parental mental health. The present study aimed to examine differences in self-compassion and emotion regulation between parents of adolescents with ASD and parents of typically developing adolescents to identify their effects on parental mental health.This research employed a causal-comparative design, with a purposive sample of 200 parents (100 parents from each group) selected from clinical centers in Tehran. Data were collected using the Self-Compassion Scale, the Toronto Alexithymia Scale, and the SCL-90 questionnaire to assess mental health. Data analysis was conducted using multivariate analysis of variance (MANOVA).The results indicated that parents of adolescents with ASD had significantly lower self-compassion and experienced greater emotion dysregulation compared to parents of typically developing adolescents. Furthermore, these parents exhibited higher levels of psychological distress, including anxiety, depression, and stress.The findings highlight the unique psychological challenges faced by parents of adolescents with ASD and emphasize the necessity of designing effective interventions to enhance self-compassion and emotion regulation. Strengthening these factors may contribute to improved parental mental health and help mitigate difficulties associated with raising children with ASD. |
