After the intervention, the mean resilience score of mothers in the control group was (55.89±3.58) and in the experimental group was (69.46±5.78), which was a significant increase compared to before the intervention (p = 0.001). After the intervention, the mean satisfaction score of mothers in the control group was (78.63±6.32) and in the experimental group (79.70±7.19), which was not significantly different from before the intervention (p=0.54).
