The participants of this study were selected among 30 mothers of children with cancer and using sampling method in Yazd hospitals. The participants divided randomly into two groups: experimental and control. Participants in both experimental and control group completed questionnaires on Beck Anxiety Inventory and Beck Depression Inventory before and after training.
The results showed that the index of depression and anxiety in control and experimental groups are 32.3, 6.63, 7.4 and 6.75, respectively.

儿童癌症诊断会给父母带来高度压力和焦虑，他们可能会缩短预期寿命。本研究调查了洛夏墨迹心理测验疗法对癌症患儿母亲焦虑和抑郁的影响。
本研究采用半实验方法，设立对照组和实验组，进行前测和后测。洛夏墨迹心理测验疗法培训共进行9次，每次90分钟。本研究的参与者从亚兹德医院的30名癌症患儿母亲中选取，采用抽样方法。参与者随机分为两组：实验组和对照组。实验组和对照组的参与者在培训前后均完成了贝克焦虑量表和贝克抑郁量表问卷调查。
结果显示，对照组和实验组的抑郁和焦虑指数分别为32.3、6.63、7.4和6.75。因此，在洛夏墨迹心理测验疗法培训干预后，实验组的水平有所下降，前后测阶段出现显著差异。结果表明，洛夏墨迹心理测验疗法对降低癌症患儿母亲的焦虑和抑郁有显著效果（p<0.05）。
鉴于这种方法在减轻母亲焦虑和抑郁方面的有效性，建议在其他癌症治疗的同时采用这种治疗方法，以便她们能以更好的情绪和心态接受治疗过程。
