The statistical population of this study included all the mothers with autistic children in Shiraz in 1400-1401, 30 of whom were randomly selected by available sampling into two experimental groups (15 people) and a control group. (15 people) were replaced. The research tools included Dennis and Vanderwaal's (2010) Cognitive Flexibility Questionnaire and Wilson's Valuable Life Scale (2010). Data analysis was done using multivariate and univariate analysis of covariance in SPSS-24 software.

According to the eta square, the average increase of each cognitive flexibility and value of life was 71% and 74%, respectively, affected by the emotion regulation training intervention.
