A healthy and vibrant society depends on the presence of citizens with a positive and motivated spirit. Achieving such a society requires that social well-being be realized as a form of mental, individual, and social health in today's communities. Given the novelty of the concept of social well-being, there is yet to be full consensus among researchers on its dimensions and indicators. The widespread interest in social well-being in Iran and globally stems from its conceptual attractiveness as it can delineate prevailing social conditions and serve as a valuable analytical tool for scholars and policymakers in this field. Disorders in social health, such as anxiety, depression, addiction, divorce, and suicide, are crucial issues in contemporary society that warrant extensive study. By investigating their causes and consequences, strategies can be proposed for their prevention and reduction. This study begins with defining the key concepts of social health and the abnormalities resulting from disorders within it. It proceeds to provide statistical insights into these disorders worldwide and in Iran, utilizing keywords such as social health, social disorders, depression, anxiety, addiction, divorce, and suicide, as found in recently published books and articles. The components and indicators of social problems are reviewed, and solutions are proposed for the prevention and mitigation of each social disorder. Research findings indicate that among mortality and disability factors in Iran, depression ranks 4th and anxiety 7th and there is a close relationship between the occurrence of depression, stress, and anxiety in individuals. Globally, 2% of the population suffers from substance use disorders, and the daily smoking rate in Iran is estimated at 10.7%. Moreover, the divorce rate in Iran is reported at 14%, with the highest rates in Alborz, Mazandaran, Semnan, Tehran, and Markazi provinces. Suicide rates in Iran show Ilam, Hamadan, and Kermanshah provinces as having the highest rates. Ilam province is one of the most dangerous regions in Iran, where 28.94 deaths occur due to suicide in every hundred thousand cases. The results indicate significant overlap among these social harms in many aspects, where the occurrence of one can pave the way for another. Thus, preventing social problems such as anxiety and depression can effectively contribute to preventing other social issues such as addiction, divorce, and suicide, thereby enhancing social Health. Therefore, conducting national surveys in this area and making evidence-based decisions can substantially aid in preventing social harm.

Divorce is one of the stressful experiences of the family, which can lead to conflicts and incompatibility among family members, especially women. This research was conducted with the aim of determining the effectiveness of compassion-based therapy on social isolation, psychological flexibility and happiness of divorced women.

The present research is practical in terms of research purpose. This research was based on the semi-experimental data collection method with a pre-test and post-test design with a control group and a follow-up period. From the number of 5400 divorced women referring to counseling centers in the 2nd district of Tehran in 2013-2014, 30 women were selected purposefully and randomly replaced in two groups (treatment based on compassion and evidence). The research tools were Gilbert's compassion-based treatment model (2010), social isolation questionnaire by Chalabi and Amir Kafi (2013), cognitive flexibility questionnaire by Martin and Rubin (1995) and happiness questionnaire by Argyle Velo (1990). The data was analyzed using mixed variance analysis.

The results of repeated measurement variance analysis showed that compassion-based therapy reduces social isolation and increases psychological flexibility and happiness of divorced women (p≤001) and this effect was sustained over time according to the follow-up test (p≤001).

In order to improve social isolation, psychological flexibility and happiness of divorced women, it is suggested to use compassion-based therapy.

In total, 54 people (27 couples) were selected by the purposeful sampling method and randomly (by drawing lots by throwing dice) divided into three groups (9 couples in each group). Members of both experimental groups received their treatment, respectively, in 8 and 10 sessions of 1.5 hours; however, the control group did not receive any treatment. The measurement tools were Hoffman et al.'s interpersonal emotion regulation questionnaires and Gottman's emotional divorce. Data were analyzed by analysis of covariance and bonferroni's post hoc test.

The results of covariance analysis showed that cognitive-behavioral couple therapy 55.39±4.64 and emotion focused couple therapy 55.94±5.03 compared to the control group 43.33±4.56, increased interpersonal emotion regulation in couples after the test (p<0.001).  The effect of these two treatments on increased interpersonal emotion regulation at posttest was not different (p>0.05).

It seems that cognitive-behavioral couple therapy and emotion-oriented couple therapy can increase the interpersonal emotion regulation of couples, so they can probably be a useful therapeutic strategy for improving couples' relationships.
