Introduction: Defensive styles, attributional styles, and cognitive emotion regulation are automated regulatory processes that can be helpful in how threatening events are perceived. The aim of this study was to compare defense styles, attributional styles and cognitive emotion regulation in women memorizing and non-memorizing the Quran in Zanjan.
Methods: The method of this research was descriptive-comparative. The statistical population of the study was all women memorizing the Quran in the years 1393-1397 of the Holy Quran Society in Zanjan. The sample of the study was 112 people (memorizer and non-memorizer of Quran) who were selected by convenience sampling method and entered the study. Data collection tools included demographic questionnaire, "Defense Style Questionnaire", "Attributional Style Questionnaire" and "Cognitive Emotion Regulation Questionnaire". The validity of the instruments was not measured due to time constraints, but the reliability was assessed by internal consistency method by calculating Cronbach's alpha coefficient. Data collection in two groups was done virtually. Data were analyzed in SPSS. 16.
Results: Matching study between the two groups showed that there was no significant difference in terms of age, marital status, education and occupation. The components of refocusing on planning (P-Value <0.002), positive reappraisal (P-Value <0.001) and putting into perspective (P-Value <0.042) are higher in Hafez women. Also, despite the difference of 0.45, the mean total score of cognitive emotion regulation between women memorizing and non-memorizing the Qur'an was not significantly different.
Conclusions: Women memorizing the Qur'an performed better than women who did not memorize the Qur'an in terms of defensive styles, documentary styles, and cognitive emotion regulation; Therefore, it is recommended to participate in Quran recitation and memorization classes to improve the status of defense styles, documentary styles and cognitive emotion regulation for non-Quran memorizing women.
