چکیده

House wives hold a specific position at home, as it is known to everyone. However, the presence of some known issues including their financial dependence to the husband, has made them a vulnerable group in the society, whatever is its development status. This study aimed at investigating the effect of virtual English language teaching on Iranian house wives’ emotional regulation, anger control. In so doing, a quasi-experimental pre-test post-test control group design was used. The target population of this study included all Iranian house wives. From the population, about 60 Iranian house wives from different cities of Iran were selected through available sampling. The participants were randomly divided into two groups namely, the experimental and control groups. The required data were collected through the following instruments: The Persian version of Anger Control Questionnaire, developed and validated by Buss and Perry (1992);; and the Persian version of the Emotional Regulation Questionnaire (Garnefski et al., 2003). Data analysis was conducted running descriptive statistics, Kolmogorov-Smirnov normality test, Leven test, and one-way Analysis of Covariance (ANCOVA). The findings confirmed a significantly positive impact of virtual English language teaching on Iranian House wives’ emotional regulation, anger control . The findings have implications for top-level educational authorities, social emergency administrators, and future researchers.
