Initially, bibliotherapy was used to address emotional issues in adults. However, in the second half of the 19th century, its theoretical and practical foundations expanded significantly. Nowadays, bibliotherapy is recognized as an effective strategy for treating clinical problems. The purpose of this study is to examine the impact of an  experimental Bibliotherapy for resilience, and so investigate the effect of twelve archetypes on teenagers with cancer at Behsat Hospital, Hamedan.

 This research employed a semi-experimental design, utilizing a pre-test and post-test approach. The target population consisted of teenagers aged 10 to 14 undergoing chemotherapy for cancer at Besat Hospital in Hamedan. 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.

The banking is one of the most influential areas in the economy in terms of financing, liquidity control and improving the business environment. The banking has faced many restrictions in recent years. Strengthening this sector has an important role in the development of the economy. The study seeks to strengthen this area with a resilient approach. Research

This research is exploratory from the perspective of purpose and has multi-method quantitative methodology due to the use of quantitative methods. The population of research is experts of the banking system. The sampling method was judgmental. The sample size was 15 people. Binominal test, Dematel and Codas were used for primary screening, secondary screening and final prioritization, respectively.

22 factors influencing the banking system's resilience were initially identified. The desired factors were screened using Binominal test. 13 factors with a significance coefficient above 5% were excluded and the remaining 9 factors were analyzed using the dematel. 5 factors were evaluated as effective. Finally, the 5 factors were prioritized using the Codas.

Future thinking, strategic partnership with fintechs and the existence of a risk analysis system have the highest priority in banking resilience. proposals were developed based on these factors.

Due to its positive effects, bibliotherapy can be one of the services of public libraries for all sections of society. The purpose of this study was to determine the effect of experimental intervention of book "therapy" by implementing trolley-book plan on "productivity" and life expectancy of adolescents with cancer in Be'sat Hospital in Hamadan.

This study is a quasi-experimental research using a pretest-posttest on two groups, i.e. an experimental group and a control group. For the experimental group, several bibliotherapic sessions were held while no intervention more than the usual practices in the research environment. The research sample included 30 children with cancer, aged 10 to 14 who were in an initial stage of the disease and had completed at least one course of chemotherapy. The research instrument consists of two questionnaires: Conner's perseverance and Schneider's life expectancy. Data analysis was done using an independent t-test and a covariance analysis in SPSS software.

Results of the independent t-test showed that there is a significant difference between the mean scores of the two variables of resilience and life expectancy in the control and experimental group. Furthermore, the effect of this kind for bibliotherapy on the life expectancy in the children with cancer was 43.6% and its effect on resilience was 64.1%.

There is a significant relationship between book therapy sessions with resilience and life expectancy in the study population. In other words, book therapy has an effect on both cases and concluded that resilience and life expectancy both mean and book therapy has an effect on both groups.

Bibliotherapy was originally used to treat emotional problems in adults, but during the second half of the 19th century, the theoretical and practical foundations and instructions for its use grew widely. Now, bibliotherapy is a prominent strategy that is not only used to treat clinical problems, but also is cosidered a method that can be effective in guiding clients by using the book to meet their needs. The aim of this study is to determine the effect of experimental intervention of group bibliotherapy on the Resilience and life expectancy of children with cancer in Besat Hospital in Hamadan in the process of improving their health status.

This research is a quasi-experimental study using a pretest-posttest on two groups, i.e. an experimental group and a control group. For the experimental group, several bivliotherapic sessions were held while no intervention more than the usual practices in the research environment were made. The research sample included 30 children afflicted with cancer, aged 10 to 14 who were in an initial stage of the disease and had completed at least one course of chemotherapy. The research instrument consists of two questionnaires: Connerchr('39')s perseverance and Schneiderchr('39')s life expectancy. The experimental group underwent a group bibliotherapic intervention in eight sessions. Two books, namely Living with Chronic Pain: An Approach Based on Accepting the herapistchr('39')s Guide and Patient Workbook by Kevin Wells and John Sorrell (2011) and Practical Pain Management Handbook: A Positive Attitude Toward Adapting to Chronic Pain by Michael Nicholas (2008), were the researcherschr('39') guide in this bibliotherapy. Data analysis was done using an independent t-test and a covariance analysis in the SPSS software.

Results of the independent t-test showed that there is a significant difference between the mean scores of the two variables of resilience and life expectancy in the control and experimental groups. Furthermore, the effect of this kind of bibliotherapy on the life expectancy in the children afflicted with cancer was 43.6% and its effect on resilience was 64.1%. Moreover, all the assumptions related to the analysis of covariance have been fulfilled

Originality/value:

 The current research is the first research carried out on the effect of group bibliotherapy on the level of resilience and life expectancy of children afflicted with cancer, while considering the positive effects of bibliotherapy, it can be one of the services of public libraries for patients.
