In two stages pre-test and post-test, they were measured through the cognitive flexibility inventory (CFI) and Sherer & Maddux general self-efficacy scale (GSSES) in 1 group of treatment and 1 control group. The experimental group was treated for 8 sessions based on compassion-focused acceptance and commitment therapy, but the control group did not receive any treatment.
