| description | Objective: The aim of this study was to investigate the effectiveness of mindfulness group therapy based on stress reduction on anxiety and depression in patients with MS in Bojnourd Methods: Samples were selected by simple random sampling (n = 22) and then randomly divided into an experimental group (11 subjects in the stress awareness-based mindfulness group) and a control group (n = 11). Beck Anxiety Inventory and Beck Depression Inventory were used in the pre-test. In the next step, mindfulness based on stress reduction was administered to the experimental group for 8 sessions once a week for two hours and the control group did not receive any intervention. Then the post-test was completed for both groups and the necessary data were collected and analyzed using covariance analysis. Results: The findings showed that there was a significant difference between the group of mindfulness-based stress therapy and the control group in the variables of anxiety and depression. Conclusion: Considering the findings, more attention should be paid to stress-reduction mindfulness intervention in order to reduce the level of anxiety and depression in MS patients. |
