چکیده مقاله:
Physical-motor disable children have specific health care requirements, which in turn may influence mental health of mothers. The present study is an attempt to determine mindfulness-based cognitive therapy on attenuation of negative automatic thoughts and cognitive distortion of mothers of physically-motor disabled children. The study was carried out as a semi-experimental study with pretest, posttest, and control group. Study population was comprised of all mothers with physically-motor disable children domiciled in Alborz Province, Iran. A study group (n = 60) were selected through random-cluster from referrals to three health care centers who had been forwarded to Social Welfare Org.. Afterward, 20 participants were selected out of the 60 candidates and placed in two groups of control and experiment groups each with 10 members. The experiment group took part in mindfulness-based cognitive therapy course (eight 120min sessions) over 2 months. All the participants filled out Beck’s depression inventory, cognitive disorders questionnaire, and automatic thoughts questionnaire before and after the intervention and one month after the intervention. The control group received no treatment. The findings based on covariance analysis and frequency analysis showed that all hypotheses as to decrease of depression, cognitive distortion, and automatic negative thoughts were supported. As the results showed, mindfulness treatment based on concentration training was effective in preventing recurrence of depression.
