Summary

Parents of children with special needs often experience high levels of stress and difficulties in emotional regulation, which may negatively affect both their well-being and parent-child interactions. This study aims to evaluate the effect of a Comfort Theory-based yoga and values clarification intervention on emotional regulation, comfort, and perceived stress levels in these parents.

This randomized controlled study will include three groups: a yoga intervention group, a values clarification group, and a control group. Participants will be randomly assigned to groups. Data will be collected using the Emotion Regulation Scale, Perceived Stress Scale, and General Comfort Questionnaire.

The intervention is expected to improve emotional regulation and comfort levels while reducing perceived stress among parents of children with special needs. The findings may contribute to the development of effective nursing interventions to support caregiver well-being.
