Abstract
Purpose: The aim of this study was to evaluate the effectiveness of spirituality-based acceptance and commitment therapy on depression and dysfunctional attitudes of patients with multiple sclerosis. Materials and Methods: For this purpose, in a quasi-experimental study with pre-test, post-test and control group, 30 patients with multiple sclerosis were selected by recall and available sampling method and randomly divided into control and experimental groups. Were replaced. The intervention was performed in 8 sessions and each session lasted 60 minutes on the experimental group. Groups were evaluated for depression and dysfunctional attitudes before and after the intervention. Findings: The results of analysis of covariance showed that acceptance and commitment treatment had a significant effect on increasing depression and dysfunctional attitudes in patients with multiple sclerosis (P <0.05). Conclusion: The results of this study support the effect of acceptance and commitment therapy in improving the level of depression and dysfunctional attitudes of patients with multiple sclerosis.
