Acceptance and commitment therapy is one of the approaches in improving sexual problems. This study aimed to investigate the effect of acceptance and commitment group counseling on sexual self-efficacy and sexual quality of life in reproductive-age women. This study was conducted on 58 women referred to selected clinics in IRAN who were randomly divided into the experimental (N = 29) and the control group (N = 29). The experimental group received eight sessions of acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT). The data was collected by sexual self-efficacy and sexual quality of life questionnaire before, after, and one month after the intervention. In the intervention group, the average score of sexual self-efficacy and sexual quality of life was significantly higher than the control group after the intervention (8 week) and follow-up period (12 week)(P > 0.005). It seems that counseling based on the ACT is effective in promoting sexual self-efficacy and the sexual quality of life of reproductive-age women.
接纳与承诺疗法是改善性问题的方法之一。本研究旨在探讨接纳与承诺团体辅导对生育期妇女性自我效能感和性生活质量的影响。这项研究是在伊朗选定的诊所中对 58 名妇女进行的，她们被随机分为实验组（n=29）和对照组（n=29）。实验组接受了八次接纳与承诺疗法（ACT）。在干预前、干预后和干预后一个月，通过性自我效能感和性生活质量问卷收集数据。在干预组中，与对照组相比，干预后（8 周）和随访期（12 周）的性自我效能感和性生活质量的平均得分显著更高（P＞0.005）。基于 ACT 的咨询似乎对提高生育期妇女的性自我效能感和性生活质量有效。
