Abstract

 Objective: Patients suffering from psychosomatic disorders such as peptic ulcers struggle with many psychological and physical problems. This study aimed to compare the effectiveness of group mindfulness-based cognitive therapy (MBCT) with emotion-focused therapy (EFT) on cognitive emotional regulation of patients with peptic ulcer.
Method: This semi-experimental study was conducted with a pre-test-post-test-3-month follow-up design and a control group. For this purpose, 45 patients were selected through convenience sampling method among patients referred to specialized internal medicine clinics during Jan-March 2023. The participants were randomly assigned to three groups i.e. control (15 people), EFT (15 people), and mindfulness-based cognitive therapy (15 people). The intervention groups received eight sessions of mindfulness-based cognitive therapy/ emotion-focused therapy. The control group did not receive any treatment during the study. The participants completed the standard cognitive emotion regulation questionnaire of Garnefski and Kraaij before, after and three months after the interventions. The obtained data were analyzed by repeated measurement analysis of variance and Bonferroni test.
Results: Overall, the obtained results showed that EFT and mindfulness-based cognitive therapy are effective in the emotional regulation of patients with peptic ulcers (P=0.001). Comparing the effectiveness of mindfulness-based cognitive therapy with emotion therapy on adaptive (P=0.56) and maladaptive (P=0.22) emotional regulation showed no significant difference in patients with peptic ulcer.
Conclusion: Therefore, it can be said that both emotional therapy methods and mindfulness-based cognitive therapy have a positive effect on the emotional regulation of patients with peptic ulcers, and these two methods can be used for the improvement of emotional improvement in patients.

Abstract [Persian]

زمینه و هدف: بیماران مبتلا به اختلالات روان تنی مانند زخم معده با مشکلات روحی و جسمی زیادی دست و پنجه نرم می کنند. این مطالعه با هدف مقایسه اثربخشی شناخت درمانی مبتنی بر ذهن آگاهی (MBCT) با درمان متمرکز بر هیجان (EFT) بر تنظیم شناختی هیجانی بیماران مبتلا به زخم پپتیک انجام شد.
روش: این مطالعه نیمه تجربی با طرح پیش آزمون-پس آزمون-پیگیری 3 ماهه و با گروه کنترل انجام شد. بدین منظور، 45 بیمار به روش نمونه گیری در دسترس از بین بیماران مراجعه کننده به کلینیک های تخصصی داخلی در فاصله دی تا اسفند 1401 انتخاب شدند. شرکت کنندگان به طور تصادفی در سه گروه کنترل (15 نفر)، EFT (15 نفر) و ذهن آگاهی- قرار گرفتند. درمان شناختی مبتنی بر (15 نفر). گروه های مداخله هشت جلسه درمان شناختی مبتنی بر ذهن آگاهی/ درمان متمرکز بر هیجان دریافت کردند. گروه کنترل در طول مطالعه هیچ درمانی دریافت نکردند. شرکت کنندگان پرسشنامه استاندارد تنظیم شناختی هیجان گارنفسکی و کرایج را تکمیل کردند. قبل، بعد و سه ماه بعد از مداخلات. داده های به دست آمده با استفاده از آزمون تحلیل واریانس اندازه گیری مکرر و آزمون بونفرونی مورد تجزیه و تحلیل قرار گرفت.
یافته‌ها: در مجموع، نتایج به‌دست‌آمده نشان داد که EFT و شناخت درمانی مبتنی بر ذهن آگاهی در تنظیم هیجانی بیماران مبتلا به زخم گوارشی مؤثر هستند (001/0=P). مقایسه اثربخشی شناخت درمانی مبتنی بر ذهن آگاهی با هیجان درمانی بر تنظیم هیجانی سازگار (56/0=P) و تنظیم هیجانی ناسازگار (22/0=P) تفاوت معناداری را در بیماران مبتلا به زخم معده نشان نداد.
نتیجه‌گیری: بنابراین می‌توان گفت که هم روش‌های هیجان‌درمانی و هم شناخت‌درمانی مبتنی بر ذهن‌آگاهی بر تنظیم هیجانی بیماران مبتلا به زخم گوارشی تأثیر مثبتی دارند و می‌توان از این دو روش برای بهبود بهبود هیجانی بیماران استفاده کرد.
