Abstract
The aim of the present study is to present a causal model of self-awareness based on visual-spatial transformation; The mediating role was mental balance. The design of the current research was practical in terms of purpose, and in terms of data collection, it included quantitative studies based on the correlation approach using path analysis. The statistical population included all patients suffering from multiple sclerosis in Borujerd city in 1402-1403, and 300 people were selected as a sample using the Krejsi-Morgan table using available sampling method. Visual-spatial transformation questionnaires, mental balance questionnaire and self-awareness questionnaire were used to collect data. The obtained data were analyzed using SPSS version 24 and AMOS software. The findings showed that the standard coefficients of the path of visual-spatial transformation to mental balance (P<0.001, β=0.60), the path of visual-spatial transformation to self-awareness (P<0.001, β=0.67) And the standard coefficient of the path of mental balance to self-awareness (P < 0.001, β = 0.57) is significant at the significance level of P < 0.01. Also, the findings showed that 34% of the variance of mental balance and 42% of the variance of self-awareness were explained by the current model. In addition, to investigate the significance of the mediating role of mental balance, the bootstrap maximization method was used in AMOS software, and the results showed that mental balance plays a role as a mediating variable in the relationship between visual-spatial transformation and self-awareness. slow Therefore, according to the obtained results, it is obvious that the increase in mental balance and consequently the increase in the level of visual-spatial transformation will improve the level of self-awareness in patients with multiple sclerosis, and it is suggested that the officials concerned with the role of mental balance as Mediator and promoter of visual-spatial transformation and self-awareness should be paid more attention.
