Therefore, the aim of the current research was the effectiveness of cognitive-behavioral stress management training on anger, depression and anxiety control skills in martial arts beginners of the second year of high school.
Methods: The present study was a quasi-experimental type. The implementation method was as follows: 50 male martial arts subjects (Taekwondo, Judo and Wushu) were asked to complete questionnaires related to anger, depression and anxiety control as a pre-test, then the experimental group under training. Cognitive-behavioral stress management was performed during 10 sessions (the control group did not receive any training). The statistical analysis of the current research was done using multivariate analysis of covariance, and using spss software.
Results: The results of the present study showed that the cognitive-behavioral stress management training in the experimental group led to a significant difference in the variable of anger and anxiety control skills (P<0.05). Also, the results indicate that cognitive behavioral stress management training in the experimental group did not lead to a significant difference between the scores of the experimental and control groups in the depression variable (P=0.87).
