Abstract:
This interdisciplinary study examines the phenomenon of loneliness in divorcing couples from three psychological perspectives. The quantitative findings of the original study show that marital boundaries with a correlation coefficient of -0.71 and psychological distress with a coefficient of 0.66 have a significant relationship with loneliness. These results have been analyzed in more depth through the theoretical frameworks of Hilgard, Schultz, and Eric Berne.

2-Methodology This research is of a descriptive-correlational type and was conducted with the aim of examining the relationship between marital boundaries and psychological distress with the feeling of loneliness in couples seeking divorce.
This methodology, by combining quantitative approaches and psychological theories (Hillgard, Schultz, Berne), provides an appropriate framework for analyzing the factors affecting loneliness feelings after divorce.
Psychological distress and hypnosis: Anxiety and depression resulting from divorce can be similar to negative self-hypnotic states, where the individual gets stuck in a cycle of negative thoughts about loneliness and failure.
Table 1- Pearson correlation analysis results {Refer to the attached table file} The variables in these tables clearly show that marital boundaries and psychological distress are significantly related to the feeling of loneliness and can be considered important predictor factors.
Table 2- Regression analysis results {Refer to the attached table file} Based on Table 1, psychological distress has a positive and significant relationship with the feeling of loneliness in couples seeking divorce.
