Discussion
The results of statistical analysis in the previous chapter showed that both schema therapy and cognitive-behavioral treatments were significantly effective in reducing the anger of women with marital conflicts, compared to the control group. In schema therapy, emotions and emotional regulation are completely related to the concept of schema state. This concept is the basic and most complex aspect of the theoretical model presented by Yang et al. (2007) (16). A mood is a dominant disordered emotional state that is thwarted by thought, emotional, and behavioral patterns based on a set of specific needs. Usually, states are activated by internal or external stimuli and may include both adaptive and maladaptive responses (16).
In particular, a dysfunctional state is manifested by maladaptive schemas or coping responses that manifest in uncomfortable emotions, avoidance responses, or self-destructive behaviors, and it affects a person's behavior and controls his emotional functioning. The basic concept of state theory in schema therapy is that different mental states have different goals and are related to different needs. The therapist's first goal in schema therapy is to understand and conceptualize the client's performance model. This work is done for simplification and helps the clients to understand their performance method. There are four macro classes of mode (17).
Schema therapy emphasizes moment-to-moment changes in awareness of emotions and feelings and helps clients to identify their negative emotions (including anger) and express them in the right way. In the meantime, the therapist also intervenes and defends the state of the vulnerable child and helps the clients to communicate with the damaged child through a healthy adult, and a dialogue is formed between them and helps the damaged child to understand the events that happened during Remember that they are related to this excitement and look at them with the perspective of a healthy adult (13). Therefore, it can be concluded that regulating emotions such as anger, through identifying and changing ineffective states and transforming them into efficient and healthy states, will reduce anger and manage it more.
