Making decision for separation from the spouse is one of the crises which are followed by unpleasant feelings such as self-criticism in the people. The purpose of the present study was to investigate the effectiveness of compassion-focused therapy (CFT) on self-criticism of the women applying for divorce.
The research design was quasi-experimental with pretest, posttest, and control group type. The population included all the women applying for divorce who referred to an intervention-in-crisis center under the supervision of the organization of well-being in the city of Tehran in 2019. It had the convenient sampling method where the subjects were accommodated into two groups of fifteen women both in the experimental and control groups. The present study had the convenient nonrandom sampling method and the statistical population included 30 women from whom 15 women were accommodated into experimental group and so were 15 in the control group. Sampling method was in available, nonrandom type wherein 15 women were accommodated in the experimental group and so were 15 women in the control group. The experimental group participated in eight 90-min sessions of CFT and the control group did not receive any intervention. Before and after practical experimental administration, both the groups were assessed through self-criticism questionnaire by Smart . (2016). The statistical method used in the data analysis was ANCOVA.
The results showed that at the error level of 0.5, after controlling the effect of pretest scores as a covariance factor, the mean of the experimental group was significantly lower than the mean of the control group, which shows that CFT approach has been effective in reducing self-criticism.
As a result, CFT approach can help the people who face the crisis of making decision for divorce and self-criticism to be able to confront this issue effectively and achieve mental health.
决定与配偶分居是人们会经历的危机之一,随之而来的是诸如自我批评等不愉快的情绪。本研究的目的是调查以慈悲为中心的疗法(CFT)对申请离婚女性的自我批评的有效性。
研究设计为准实验性,采用前测、后测和对照组类型。研究对象包括2019年在德黑兰市幸福组织监督下,前往危机干预中心申请离婚的所有女性。采用便利抽样法,将实验对象分为实验组和对照组,每组各15名女性。本研究采用便利非随机抽样法,统计人群包括30名女性,其中15名女性被纳入实验组,15名女性被纳入对照组。抽样方法为现有非随机类型,实验组和对照组各有15名女性。实验组参加了八次90分钟的CFT治疗,对照组未接受任何干预。在实际实验实施前后,两组均通过Smart(2016)的自我批评问卷进行评估。数据分析中使用的统计方法是协方差分析。
结果表明,在0.5的误差水平下,在将前测分数的影响作为协变量进行控制后,实验组的平均分显著低于对照组的平均分,这表明CFT方法在降低自我批评方面是有效的。
因此,CFT方法可以帮助面临离婚决定危机和自我批评的人能够有效地应对这个问题并实现心理健康。
