description Background: Training the skills which increase positive affect leading to a better problem solving, increase social support and has some other advantages which act as a protective factor thus decreasing depression. So this study aimed to compare the effect of mindful self-acceptance therapy and positive psychotherapy on affective capital of female students with depression. Materials and Methods: This research was a semi-experimental study pre-test, post-test and one and a half month follow-up design with three groups. The sample consisted of 54 female students with depression at secondary high school in Isfahan who were selected based on the inclusion criteria and were randomly assigned in two experimental groups and one control group. The experimental groups were treated with mindful self-acceptance therapy and positive psychotherapy. Golparvar affect capacity questionnaire were used to measure the dependent variables at pre-test, post-test and the follow up. The data were analyzed using repeated measure analysis of variance and Bonferroni post hoc test trough SPSS-22 software. Results: The results showed that mindful self-acceptance therapy and positive psychotherapy had a significant effect on increasing the affective capital (P<0.05). But there was no significant difference between the two treatment groups (P>0.05). Conclusion: Mindful self-acceptance therapy and positive psychotherapy were both effective treatments on increasing the affective capital of female students with depression and training them both can change female student’s sentiments about life thus treating depression as a consequence.
