Background and Objectives: Problem-solving is formed as one of the most important branches
of life skills in the socialization process and several factors are effective in adopting its types. The
purpose of the present study was to explain the sociological factors related to social problem-solving
strategies in girls and boys ready for marriage who refer to Baharenko Counseling Center in Shiraz.
Methods: The present study was based on the survey method, in which 912 ready-to-marry
men and women referring to Baharenko pre-marital Education and Counseling Center were
selected as a statistical sample by cluster random sampling. The research tool was a questionnaire
whose validity was confirmed by experts and its reliability was assessed using Cronbach’s alpha
coefficient method. Data were analyzed using t-test, F-statistic, correlation coefficient, and
stepwise regression.
Results: There was a positive and significant relationship between logical problem-solving
strategy and spiritual health (existential and religious). Also, all dimensions of social well-being
(acceptance, adaptation, prosperity, cohesion, and contribution) had a significant and positive
relationship with problem-solving. The results of stepwise regression also showed that spiritual
health and social well-being can predict 0.21 of the logical problem-solving variable in couples
ready for marriage.
Conclusion: The social and spiritual health of individuals was an important explanatory factor
in predicting the dependent variable. The more people value themselves and enjoy social and
spiritual health, the more likely they are to be part of society and experience a more meaningful
life, the more likely they are to use a rational problem-solving strategy
