The subjects were evaluated, using a demographic questionnaire, Bar–On's emotional quotient inventory, andSpielberger’s State-Trait Anxiety Inventory (STAI). The intervention group was trained in six sessions by an expert. In the final session,the questionnaires were completed by the participants and analyzed.
