A sample of 30 cancer-afflicted teenagers was randomly selected, ensuring homogeneity in terms of age, duration of illness, socioeconomic status, and other variables. The sample was divided into two groups: a control group of 15 individuals and an experimental group of 15 individuals. The research utilized two questionnaires to measure resilience (Conner and Davidson, 2003) and life expectancy (Schneider, 2006). The resilience questionnaire had 25 items that are scored on a five-level Likert scale from completely agree to completely disagree. The validity of this questionnaire was confirmed by six experts and its reliability was obtained using Cronbach's alpha coefficient of 0.89. The life expectancy questionnaire has 12 items and 3 components and is implemented as a self-assessment. Out of these 12 items, four items measure operative thinking, four items measure strategic thinking, and four items contain deviant questions. This questionnaire includes two subscales of factor and strategy, and its purpose is to evaluate the level of life expectancy in people. The scoring method of this questionnaire is based on a five-level Likert scaleThe experimental group participated in eight sessions of bibliotherapy intervention using a storytelling skill plan. The therapist researchers used three books as guides: "Living with Chronic Pain: An Acceptance-Based Approach" and its therapist's guide and patient workbook by Kevin Wells and John Sorrell (2013), "Pain Control Practical Guide: A Positive Attitude to Adapting to Chronic Pain" by Michael Nicholas (2014), and "The Hero's Awakening" by Patricia Addson (2014). Data analysis was conducted using independent t-tests and analysis of covariance in SPSS statistical software.

 The results of the independent t-tests revealed a significant difference in mean scores for resilience and life expectancy between the control and experimental groups. Moreover, the bibliotherapy intervention had a 43.6 percent effect on life expectancy and a 64.1 percent effect on resilience among teenagers with cancer.

(1979) and Goldberg et al. (1979) Psychological Health Questionnaire. Their validity was tested through convergent validity testing, while their reliability was confirmed by calculating Cronbach’s alpha. Data were analyzed using SPSS software version 21, and research hypotheses were examined step by step using Pearson correlation matrix and regression tests.

The results showed that all relationships were significant. Based on the results, between the two variables of job satisfaction and mental health (r = -0.44) at the level of 0.01 is significant, it can be concluded that there is a relationship between these two variables in employees of public libraries in Hamadan province. There is a significant inverse, and this inverse relationship is significant between its subscales (payroll system, job type, development opportunities, organizational climate, leadership style, and physical condition) and employee mental health. In other words, the higher these variables in the staff of public libraries in Hamadan province, the less their psychological problems (physical symptoms, anxiety, social dysfunction and depression) will be, and vice versa. Therefore, the hypothesis is confirmed. Among the six subscales of job satisfaction (payroll system, job type, career opportunities, organizational climate, leadership style and physical condition), two variables of payroll system and leadership style were more able to predict employee mental health changes, i.e., with more power.

Job satisfaction is a set of feelings and beliefs that people have about their current jobs. In this study, it was found that variables such as payment system and leadership style of managers in departments and organizations can greatly predict the mental health of employees. It seems that material problems and concerns and managers' attention to meeting these needs in their employees can reduce their psychological damage and create the ground for the growth and development of the organization and increase productivity. Also, leadership style based on respect, acceptance and value can greatly improve the mental health of employees in the workplace. Therefore, considering that job satisfaction has an important role in employees 'mental health, and without a doubt, employees' satisfaction with their job will increase their efficiency, customer satisfaction with the organization and increase production and productivity of the organization, which will undoubtedly result in organizational success. And the satisfaction of the employees of this department has an important role in attracting people to libraries and promoting the culture of reading and promoting the literacy of individuals. The prevalence of psychiatric morbidity in the workplace is high. The severity of psychological distress is negatively associated with job satisfaction. Early detection of psychiatric morbidity through self-administered screening questionnaires, as well as implementation of organizational mental-health promotion programs, is recommended to improve employees’ mental health and job satisfaction.
