The two groups mean variations were compared by implementing t test for independent groups. Results revealed that factors measuring emotion-al stability were altered in the study group. Significant incease in the study group score of factors: C (emotional stability versus instability), H (Parmia versus Threctia) and the reduction in score of factors: O (Guilt-proneness versus untroubled adequacy) and Q4 (high ergic tension versus low ergic tension) made apparent the effectiveness of the methods of intervention in emotional stability and achieving a healthy life style.
