Abstract
The aim of this study was to develop a conceptual model of Psychopathological Self-Maximizing syndrome in Islamic sources and to evaluate its validity. According to the purpose, the qualitative and quantitative mixed method has been used. In the qualitative part, first using the method of semantic domains (Trier, 2019) with 35 related words, 481 religious propositions were collected using purposive sampling based on the principle of saturation and using the method of qualitative content analysis by the method of inductive content analysis. (2004) were analyzed by three steps of open, axial and selective coding. Then, in the quantitative part, the validity of the findings was evaluated using the method of evaluating the opinions of experts by 11 experts by calculating the content validity index. Findings showed that the Psychopathological Self-Maximizing construct has 3 axes and 14 symptoms. The first part of the desire-oriented components (insatiability of desires, desire to be more than enough for oneself, intense interest in collecting and maintaining wealth), the second part of emotion-oriented components (suffering from not achieving desires, dissatisfaction, longing for life, grief) , Lack of comfort, humiliation in front of others due to requests) and the third part are the components of behavior-oriented (self-hardening in life, excessive excuse for not giving, not paying divine rights, acquiring and keeping property through wrongdoing, not being able to reject their demands). The results of the syndrome of this construct have provided a suitable background for diagnosis, scale design and formulation of therapeutic interventions of this structure.
