چکیده
خلأ معنا در زمره علل برخی از کژکاری هاست؛ از این رو معنادرمانی کمک به کشف معنای زندگی و خروج از خلأ هستی شناختی می باشد (براز، ساطع و فلسفی، 1402، ص39). دراین باره، گان و همکاران (2018) نشان دادند آموزش خودآگاهی مبتنی بر رویکرد معنادرمانی موجب افزایش میزان امید به زندگی در مبتلایان به سرطان سینه می شود؛ همچنین آگیونالدو و گازمن (2014) در پژوهش خود دریافتند معنادرمانی موجب افزایش هدفداری زندگی بیماران می شود. معنادرمانی از فنون قصد متضاد، بازتاب زدایی، اصلاح نگرش، حساس شدن، فراخوانی و گفتگوی سقراطی استفاده می کند. معنادرمانگران در غرب به دو گروه اصلی وجودگرایی و روان شناسی مثبت تقسیم می شوند. هر دو گروه با انتقادات جدی چون معناجویی منفعت طلبانه، غیرواقعی و سکولار (حسینی، 1402، ص ه) روبه رو هستند؛ همچنین دو رویکرد شاخص در ایران، توحیددرمانی و درمان معنوی خداسو به علت ساختارنایافته بودن (شریفی نیا، 1392، ص200) و طولانی بودن (اوصیاء، 1399) مورد انتقاد می باشند. با توجه به آنکه مبنای معنادرمانی انسان شناسی است؛ اگر انسان حی متأله (زنده خداجو) می باشد، پس حیات و خداباوری با هم گره خورده اند و درمان براساس ذات انسان که متأله است و براساس جایگاه وی (بندگی) شکل می گیرد (سلیمانی امیری و محمدی احمدآبادی، 1399، ص140)، اما اگر انسان موجودی محصور در بدن و مجبور در سرنوشت باشد، کاری جز خوراک، خواب و تلاوت تکرار ندارد (صفایی حائری، 1401، ص264). با توجه به تحقیقات انجام شده و گستره انتقادات به معنادرمانی های موجود، کشف مؤلفه های مبتنی بر دیدگاه آیت الله صفایی حائری به علت ابتنا بر انسان شناسی اسلامی و قرابت با فرهنگ ایرانی ضروری دانسته شد. افزون بر این، آیت الله صفایی حائری در زمان حیات خود مراجعان بسیاری داشته که توانسته است آنها را از بی معنایی رهانیده و به زندگی آنها حیاتی دوباره ببخشد؛ در این راستا پژوهش حاضر با هدف تدوین الگوی معنادرمانی مبتنی بر دیدگاه آیت الله صفایی حائری و اعتباریابی آن به انجام رسید. روش: پژوهش پیش رو به لحاظ هدف از نوع بنیادی و براساس ماهیت تحقیق از نوع ترکیبی مبتنی بر آمیختگی تحلیل محتوای قیاسی استقرائی بود. آثار آیت الله صفایی حائری با تحلیل محتوای قیاسی و از زاویه معنادرمانی به صورت دقیق مطالعه و براساس آن مؤلفه های ناظر به ابعاد معنادرمانی شناسایی شد. واحد تحلیل داده ها از نوع تحلیل مضمون بود. داده ها در یک فرایند کدگذاری منظم در طبقات جایگذاری شدند. با توجه به دیدگاه های بدیع آیت الله صفایی حائری از روش استقرائی نیز استفاده شد؛ از این رو طبقات جدید تشکیل و پس از بررسی نهایی و اعمال نظر اصلاحی متخصصان روان شناسی و علوم اسلامی، مؤلفه های معنادرمانی و بسته آموزشی مبتنی بر آن تدوین شد. جامعه آماری، تمامی آثار مکتوب از آیت الله صفایی حائری بود. نمونه، هفت جلد از آثار ایشان (رشد، مسئولیت و سازندگی، انسان در دو فصل، حرکت، صراط، نامه های بلوغ و عوامل رشد، رکود و انحطاط) و کتاب اندیشههای پنهان که نگاه سیستمی به آثار ایشان دارد به صورت هدفمند انتخاب شد. اعتباریابی بسته معنادرمانی در دو مرحله انجام شد؛ در مرحله نخست، کاپا با رقم 78/0 در محدوده خوب تعیین گردید و در مرحله دوم، جهت به دست آوردن شاخص نسبت روایی محتوا از دیدگاه یازده تن از اساتید روان شناسی و علوم اسلامی استفاده شد. ضریب یادشده برای کلیه تکالیف بالای 63/0 به دست آمد و 22 فعالیت حذف شد. بسته آموزشی معنادرمانی حاضر در نُه جلسه 90 دقیقه ای به صورت خلاقانه و براساس روش های مداخلاتی معنادرمانی تنظیم شد. نتایج: آیت الله صفایی حائری زمینه های معنایابی را وسعت می بخشد و هشت طبقه اصلی را معرفی می کند که عبارت است از: 1. استعداد؛ 2. حرکت؛ 3. درک ترکیب؛ 4. درک وضعیت؛ 5. مرگ؛ 6. تنهایی؛ 7. رنج و 8. آرامش.Design and Validation of a Meaning-Therapy Package Based on the Viewpoint of Ayatollah Safāie Hāeri
Introduction and Objectives: Existential vacuum is among the factors underlying various dysfunctions; hence, meaning-centered therapy assists individuals in discovering the meaning of life and escaping ontological emptiness (Braz, Saate & Falsafi, 2023, p. 39). Gan et al. (2018) demonstrated that self-awareness training grounded in meaning-centered therapy increased hope for life among women with breast cancer; similarly, Aguinaldo and Guzman (2014) found that meaning therapy enhanced the sense of purpose in patients’ lives.
Meaning therapy employs such techniques as paradoxical intention, dereflection, attitude modification, sensitization, evocation, and Socratic dialogue. Western meaning therapists fall into two main groups: existentialist and positive-psychology-based, both of which have been criticized for utilitarian, unrealistic, and secular conceptions of meaning (Hosseini, 2023, p. … ). In Iran, two notable approaches—Tawhidi therapy and God-centered spiritual therapy—have been criticized for lack of structured frameworks (Sharifinia, 2013, p. 200) and excessive length (Ossia, 2020).
Since meaning-centered therapy is rooted in anthropology, one’s view of the human being matters: if the human is a living, God-seeking creature (ḥayy-e-muta’allih), then life and God-consciousness are intertwined, and therapy must be based on the divine nature and servanthood of the human being (Soleimani-Amiri & Mohammadi-Ahmadabadi, 2020,
140). Conversely, if the human is seen as merely confined to the body and trapped in fate, life degenerates into feeding, sleeping, and repetitive recitation (Safaie Haeri, 2022, p. 264).
Given prior research and criticisms of existing meaning-therapy approaches, it appeared necessary to identify therapeutic components based on the Islamic anthropology of Ayatollah Safaie Haeri, which is culturally close to Iranian society. Moreover, during his lifetime, Ayatollah Safaie Haeri guided many clients out of meaninglessness and revitalized their lives. Accordingly, the present study aimed to develop and validate a meaning-therapy model grounded in his viewpoint.
Method: This study was fundamental in purpose and mixed-method in nature, relying on an integration of deductive-inductive content analysis. The writings of Ayatollah Safaie Haeri were examined from a meaning-therapy perspective, and relevant components were extracted through theme analysis and systematic coding. Because of the originality of his ideas, an inductive approach was also employed to identify new categories. The preliminary set of components was reviewed and refined with feedback from experts in psychology and Islamic studies, leading to the development of a structured meaning-therapy package.
The population included all written works of Ayatollah Safaie Haeri. The sample—selected purposively—included seven of his major books (Growth, Responsibility and Construction; Man in Two Chapters; Movement; Path; Letters of Maturity; and Factors of Growth, Stagnation, and Decline) plus Hidden Thoughts, a book that offers a systemic overview of his writings.
Validation of the package was carried out in two stages:
In the first stage, Cohen’s kappa was 0.78, indicating good agreement.
In the second stage, Content Validity Ratio (CVR) was calculated based on evaluations by eleven experts in psychology and Islamic sciences; all items achieved a CVR above 0.63, leading to the removal of 22 activities.
The final meaning-therapy training package comprised nine 90-minute sessions, designed creatively around established meaning-centered interventions.

Discussion and Conclusion: The study identified eight components of meaning-centered therapy based on Ayatollah Safaie Haeri’s thought and examined their connections to prior research. The concepts of potential and maturity highlight the human role in shaping destiny and thus resonate with the perspectives of Mulla Sadra (Hatami, 2005, p. 190), Janbozorgi (2019, p. 48), and Sharifinia (2013, p. 239). The concept of movement aligns with Sadrian philosophy (Hatami, 2005, p. 168; Akhavat, 2015, p. 226; Janbozorgi, 2019, p. 528). The theme of awareness of one’s situation relates to responsibility as discussed by Sharifinia (2013, p. 240) and Janbozorgi et al. (2023, pp. 547–557). The affirmation of purposive creation resonates with Sharifinia (2013, p. 239).
However, Safaie Haeri’s understanding of human needs (within the theme of composition) and freedom (within potential) differs from Glasser’s notion of needs (2019, pp. 50–65) and Fromm’s concept of freedom (2006, p. 11), and his concept of growth is distinct from Rogers’ idea of growth and self-actualization (Zarshenas, 2008, p. 100). Since life does not end with death, it is rational to regulate all worldly affairs in light of the afterlife; such self-regulation orients life toward resurrection (ma‘ād). By contrast, in positive-psychology models such as Seligman’s (Abdolkarimi-Natanzai, Shahandeh & Tavakkolipour, 2021, p. 89), because death is seen as the end of life, people strive for maximum productivity and happiness.
Therefore, the meaning-therapy package based on Ayatollah Safaie Haeri’s view, aside from its ideological aspect,
offers a practical method for prevention, therapy, and personal growth.
A limitation of the present study was the scarcity of prior research extracting meaning-therapy components from Safaie Haeri’s works. The developed package can serve as a useful resource for curriculum development, addressing adolescents’ issues, and inspiring future studies.
