The aim of the present study was to investigate the effect of treatment program based on psycho -social model on improving life quality in individuals affected by PTSD resulting from burn. Methods: The research method was quasi-experimental with pretest-post-test design with control group. The statistical population included all patients referring to Tehran Shahid Motahari Burn Hospital in 2017. 30 patients with PTSD diagnosis were replaced in two experimental and control groups using a simple randomized sampling method. The research tools were as follows: a diagnostic structured interview based on DSM-5, post-traumatic stress disorder checklist (PCL-5) and World Health Organization Quality of Life Questionnaire (WHOQOL-26). The treatment program was conducted during 12 sessions and was followed up after two months of the experimental group. The results were analyzed using multivariable analysis of covariance and paired-samples T Test. Results: The results of multivariate covariance analysis showed that the F value was significant for dimensions of life quality including physical dimension (F=4.398), mental dimension (F=4.810), social dimension (F=8.120), and then, physical environment (F=10.49) (p≤0.05). Therefore, the treatment program based on psycho-social model is effective on the dimensions of the life quality. The results of dependent t-test were significant to investigate the survival rate of the treatment program. Conclusion: The psycho-social treatment program can be used as an effective and special treatment to improve the life quality of individuals with post-traumatic stress disorder due to burns.
