Abstract

The present study aims to examine the mediating role of active well-being in the relationship between optimism and family efficacy. The research method employed in this study was descriptive and correlational. The statistical population consisted of all married men and women over 18 years old residing in Qom in the year 2024. Based on the Tatchinick and Fidel rule, a sample of 132 participants was selected through convenience sampling from this population. Data were collected using the Family Efficacy Questionnaire by Safoury Parizi, the Islamic Optimism Questionnaire by Nouri, and the Oxford Happiness Questionnaire. Descriptive statistics were used to describe the data, while Pearson correlation and linear regression tests were employed to analyze the results. The findings indicated a positive and significant relationship between optimism and family efficacy. The results also showed a positive and significant relationship between active well-being and family efficacy. Furthermore, the results indicated that active well-being serves as a mediating variable in the relationship between the two variables of optimism and family efficacy. These findings emphasize the importance of active well-being in enhancing family efficacy based on optimism.
