Abstract:   (240 Views)
This study aimed to compare the efficacy of cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT) and emotion-focused therapy (EFT) on grief in caregivers of cancer patients. This semi-experimental research utilized a pretest-posttest control group design with a two-month follow-up. The statistical population included all caregivers of cancer patients who received services from the Iranian Cancer Charity Foundation in Mashhad during the last three months of 2023. The sample consisted of 45 caregivers, who were selected purposefully and randomly assigned to two experimental groups and one control group. The intervention groups received 10 sessions of 90-minute CBT based on Young's model (2001) and 8 sessions of 90-minute EFT based on Greenberg's model (2006), once a week. Data were collected using Holm et al.'s (2019) Grief Predictors Scale (AGS). Results indicated a significant difference between the experimental and control groups, with both CBT and EFT significantly reducing grief scores in caregivers (p < 0.05). Furthermore, EFT was found to be more effective than CBT in alleviating grief in caregivers (p < 0.05). The results showed that emotion-oriented therapy was probably a more efficient intervention than cognitive behavioral therapy for improving the bereavement of caregivers of patients and, can guide therapists in treatment selection.
