Abstract:   (3 Views)
The present study aimed to determine the effectiveness of group-based self-cultivation training on cognitive flexibility and hope in women with major depressive disorder. The research employed a quasi-experimental design with a pretest–posttest control group. The statistical population included women diagnosed with major depressive disorder who were referred to psychological counseling centers in Ahvaz during 2024–2025. Using purposive non-random sampling, 30 participants were selected and randomly assigned to either the experimental group or the control group (15 participants in each group). The research instruments included the Cognitive Flexibility Inventory (CFI; Dennis & Vander Wal, 2010) and the Snyder Hope Scale (SHS; Snyder, 1991). The experimental group received 14 one-hour sessions of self-cultivation-based training. Data were analyzed using multivariate analysis of covariance (MANCOVA). The results indicated that, after controlling for pretest scores, there was a statistically significant difference between the experimental and control groups in posttest scores of cognitive flexibility and hope at the 0.001 level. In other words, self-cultivation-based training was effective in improving cognitive flexibility and hope in women with major depressive disorder (p<0.01). Overall, the findings suggest that group-based self-cultivation training can be considered an effective intervention for enhancing cognitive flexibility and hope.
