This study aimed to investigate the effect of EMDR according to the AIP model based on seven factors of parenting stress among mothers of deaf children in Ahvaz, Iran, during 2018. Materials & Methods: This semi-experimental study was conducted based on a pretest-posttest design using a control group and follow-up phases. The study population included all mothers of deaf children who were studying at the primary level. In total, 30 mothers were selected using the convenient method and randomly assigned to experimental and control groups. The experimental group was individually placed under the intervention of EMDS for 10 sessions. Afterward, a posttest was administered to both experimental and control groups. After 45 days, a follow-up test was also conducted. The data were collected using Abidin's parenting stress questionnaire. Subsequently, the obtained data were analyzed through multi-factorial covariance and one-way covariance analyses. Ethics code: IR.IAU.AHVAZ.REC.1399.008 Findings: The results revealed the effectiveness of the EMDR based on the AIP model in the seven factors of parenting stress among the mothers of deaf children. Discussions & Conclusions: It can be claimed that EMDR is an effective but relatively short non-medication therapy for the reduction of parenting stress among mothers of deaf children. }, URL = {http://sjimu.medilam.ac.ir/article-1-6564-en.html}, eprint = {http://sjimu.medilam.ac.ir/article-1-6564-en.pdf}, journal = {Journal of Ilam University of Medical Sciences}, doi = {10.52547/sjimu.29.2.64}, year = {2021} }
