The samples comprised of 49 female candidates for assisted reproductive technique of intrauterine insemination, with the least Anxiety Score of eight from Beck Anxiety Inventory.  Based on this inventory, participants were homogenized in terms of different levels of anxiety and were randomly assigned into intervention and control groups. For intervention group, the problem-solving skills were trained for three sessions of 2-2.5 hours. Then, Beck's Anxiety Inventory was filled in both intervention and control groups, one day and 9 weeks after the end of the intervention. The data was analyzed in SPSS version 16, using the descriptive and analytical statistics (Mann-Whitney, Wilcoxon, and Paired t-test).
Results: There was no significant difference in the anxiety score among the two intervention and control groups before intervention, whereas the anxiety score indicated a significant difference between the two groups (P=0.001) one day and 9 weeks after the end of the intervention. Training problem-solving skills significantly reduced the anxiety of the intervention group one day after the intervention, and the decrease also remained stable at 9 weeks after the end of the intervention (p = 0.001).

Abstract
Background: Heart failure (HF) is a chronic condition requiring effective self-care to improve clinical outcomes and quality of life. Psychological factors such as anxiety and depression, as well as religious attitudes, may influence self-care behaviors, but evidence remains inconsistent. Thus, this study aimed to examine the relationships among self-care, religious attitudes, anxiety, and depression among patients with HF.
Methods: This cross-sectional study involved recruiting 114 HF patients through convenience sampling at two educational hospitals affiliated with Ahvaz Jundishapur University of Medical Sciences in Iran in 2023. Participants completed a demographic questionnaire, the European Self-Care Behavior Questionnaire (ESCBQ), the Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale (HADS), and a Religious Attitude Questionnaire. Data were analyzed using SPSS v.22 running t-tests, one-way ANOVA, Chi-square tests, Pearson correlations, and multiple and simple regression analyses.
Results: Participants had a mean age of 55.47±13.90 years, and hypertension was the most common comorbidity (15.8%). The mean self-care score was 38.92 ± 7.86 (moderate level; higher scores indicate poorer self-care). Their anxiety (9.83±4.22) and depression (9.61±4.75) were at moderate levels, while their religious attitudes averaged 69.05 ± 10.08. Self-care behaviors were significantly negatively correlated with both anxiety and depression (p<0.05), but not with religious attitude. Multiple regression analysis revealed anxiety as the only independent predictor of self-care (β=0.50, p<0.001).
Conclusion: Anxiety is a key determinant of self-care in patients with HF, whereas depression has an indirect effect, and religious attitudes show no significant influence. Interventions focusing on anxiety reduction and psychological support may prove effective in enhancing self-care behaviors and improving clinical outcomes in this population.
