Abstract

Aim: The aim of this study was to determine the differences in the effectiveness of schema therapy, acceptance-based therapy, commitment and skill seasons on reducing depression and rumination in women with cancer.
Materials and Methods: This study was a quasi-experimental study with pre-test-post-test and control groups. The statistical population included all women with cancer referred to the Omid Foundation of Namazi and Saadi Hospitals in Shiraz in 2020, from which a sample of 100 womens was selected by random sampling, which was randomly divided into three experimental groups and a control group. Data collection tools were Beck 21-item questionnaire and Nolan Hoxma and Marlowe ruminant test. The first experimental group received schema therapy intervention, the second experimental group received acceptance-commitment therapy and the third experimental group received skill-based therapy in 12 sessions of 90 minutes, and the control group did not receive any intervention.
Results: The results showed a significant difference in the scores of depression and rumination in the experimental and control groups. All three treatment approaches were effective in reducing depression and rumination (P <0.05). Also, the results of Benfroni post hoc test showed that therapy-based treatment therapy had a much greater effect on depression and mental rumination than the other two treatments.
Conclusion: The use of interventions based on schema therapy, acceptance and commitment therapy and seasonal skill in cancer treatment centers can be considered as a treatment along with medical treatments to reduce depression and rumination in patients.
