Because adolescent girls are one of the most important and sensitive strata in school society, harming them due to stress and anxiety has an adverse effect on their mental state. Lack of attention to students' stress and psychological reactions can lead to the development of anxiety. The aim of this study was to evaluate the effectiveness of cognitive-based cognitive-cognitive therapy on improving cognitive decision making and cognitive problem-solving styles in female students with a generalized anxiety disorder. This was a quasi-experimental study with a pre-test-post-test design with a control group and randomized use. The sample consisted of 40 female students with a generalized anxiety disorder who were selected using a targeted sampling method and randomly assigned to two experimental and control groups. Data collection tools were a questionnaire for the state of Pennsylvania (Mayer et al., 1990), decision-making styles (Scott and Bruce, 1995), and cognitive styles (Club, 1982). A covariance test was used to analyze the data. The results showed that mindfulness-based cognitive therapy had an effect on improving cognitive decision making and cognitive problem-solving styles in female students with a generalized anxiety disorder (p <0.05). Therefore, it is suggested that in future research, this treatment be used to reduce the psychological and behavioral problems of individuals.
