Introduction: Students are the human capital and intellectual wealth of a society, and the present study aimed to determine the effectiveness of metacognitive therapy on feelings of frustration and self-blame in students with social media addiction.
Methods: The study was a quasi-experimental study with a pre-test and post-test design with a control group, and its statistical population included all female students with social media addiction who had referred to counseling centers in Qom in 2023–2024. A sample of 30 people was selected using convenience sampling, and 15 people were randomly assigned to each group. In the experimental group, a protocol of group metacognitive therapy sessions was held in ten sessions. Data were collected with the frustration questionnaire scale and the self-blame scale in pre- and post-test and analyzed using multivariate analysis of covariance.
Results: There was a significant difference between the post-test of the experimental and control groups in feelings of frustration (P<0.05, F=25.499) and self-blame (P<0.05, F=40.433). Metacognitive therapy was effective on feelings of frustration and self-blame in students with social media addiction.
Conclusion: Given the effectiveness of metacognitive therapy, it can be suggested that this therapy be used for students involved in problems related to social media addiction.
