A full sample of Study included 157-Female students with physical impairments (M_age=19.50; SD=1.46). The participants completed measures for self-regulation and quality of university life by self-regulation scale (SRS) and quality of university life scale (QULS), in 2022 in Saudi Arabia. We randomly selected 54 Female students with disabilities (M_age= 19.76; SD= 1.33): the intervention group (N= 27), and wait-list group (N= 27).
