Purpose: The family is the most important fundamental unit of a society. A healthy and vibrant society depends on healthy families. The consequences of any threat to the family center are visible in society. Extramarital affairs are considered one of the most important factors threatening the performance, stability, and continuity of a marital relationship, which can threaten the foundation of the family and lead to disruption of balance and ultimately divorce. This study aimed to explain the effectiveness of supportive psychodynamics on self-differentiation and Kinship Center Attachment in women affected by their husband's extramarital affairs. Method: The present study was applied in terms of purpose and quasi-experimental in terms of method (pre-test, post-test with control group). The statistical population included 120 women affected by their husband's extramarital affairs in Qom. From the population, 60 people were selected by simple random sampling and and the Self-Differentiation and Kinship Center Attachment questionnaires were distributed among them. Then, 30 people who had obtained lower scores were selected as a sample, and out of these 30 people, 15 people of them were randomly assigned to the experimental group and 15 people to the control group. The measurement tools in this research question were the Self Differentiation Questionnaire by Skorn and Friedlander (1989) and the Kinship Center Attachment Questionnaire (KCAQ) - Child Attachment in the Middle Ages by Halpern and Kappenberg (2006). In order to examine and analyze the data collected in this study to achieve the research objectives, descriptive statistics (frequency calculation, percentage) and inferential statistics (Levin's test for homogeneity of variances and analysis of covariance) were used, and all calculations were performed with the help of SPSS version 26 software. Results: The findings showed that supportive psychodynamics had a significant effect on self-differentiation and Kinship Center Attachment in women affected by their husband's extramarital affairs (P<0.05). The results indicated that supportive psychodynamics was able to significantly strengthen self-differentiation and Kinship Center Attachment in women affected by their husbands' extramarital affairs. Conclusion: Supportive psychodynamic therapy was able to significantly improve self differentiation and Kinship Center Attachment in women affected by extramarital relationships. These findings indicate the need to pay attention to supportive psychotherapy interventions and expand further research in this area.
