Comparison of the Efficacy of Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Mind-Fullness Therapy on Women's Resilience in repeated Abortions

One of the problems of women with repeated abortions is to reduce the tolerance threshold and reduce resilience to psychological problems. There is a variety of therapies to increase the resilience of these people, including those based on admission and commitment therapy and mindfullness therapy. Therefore, the present study was conducted with the aim of determining the efficacy and comparison of treatment based on admission and commitment and mindfullness therapy on the resilience of women with repeated abortions. The present study was applied and semi-experimental method was done using a pre-test post-test design. The statistical population of this study included all women with abortion in Maragheh city in the first nine months of 1396. The sample consisted of 45 women with abortion that were selected by random sampling and were randomly assigned to two experimental and one control groups. The resilience test of Davidson (2001) was used to collect data. Data were analyzed using one-variable covariance analysis and SPSS software. The results showed that mindfulness-based treatment and acceptance and commitment-based treatment had an effect on increasing the survival rate of women in repeated abortions. Mindfulness-based treatment is more effective than acceptance and commitment therapy (0.001). Based on the findings of the research, mindfulness helps people to identify situations that are causing anxiety and stress, learn better about themselves, identify their weaknesses and strengths, and then learn coping strategies to face these situations. Commitment and acceptance make the patient, with his valuable goals, move on with his experiences completely and without resistance, and accept them without judgment of their correctness or incorrectness upon emergence.
