Abstract

Positive psychotherapy has some efficiencies in the treatment of depression but its effectiveness can be increased through technical and theoretical integration. The aim of the present study is to develop an integrative treatment model and comparing its effectiveness with positive psychotherapy and cognitive behavioral therapy. The research design is quasi-experimental. The population consists of all individuals with major depression in the city of Mashhad. One hundred twenty participants with major depression were included in the present study. They were allocated in four groups of integrative positive psychotherapy, positive psychotherapy, cognitive behavioral therapy, and control group. All participants responded to the dysfunctional attitudes scale (Beck & Weissman 1978), Beck Depression Inventory (1979), and Values In Action-Inventory of Strengths (Petrerson & Seligman 2004). The data were analyzed through covariance analysis. No significant difference was found between the three intervention groups in the post-test. However, all intervention groups demonstrated significant differences with the control group in the post-test.In follow-up, integrative positive psychotherapy demonstrated higher effectiveness in relapse prevention in comparison to other treatments. findings of the present study demonstrated that clinical application of some character strengths can improve the effectiveness of treatment in relapse prevention.

Abstract

The purpose of this study was to compare the efficacy of positive psychotherapy and schema therapy on illogical beliefs and body image in women seeking cosmetic surgery. The method of the present study was quasi-experimental with a pre-test-post-test design with the control group. The statistical population included all women seeking for cosmetic surgery who were referred to cosmetic surgery centers in Boroujerd, in 2021. Among them, 45 were randomly selected and randomly assigned to two experimental groups and one control group (15 people in each group). Positive psychotherapy was performed on the first group in 14 sessions of 90 minutes and schema therapy was performed on the second group in 12 sessions of 90 minutes for two months through Skype. Participants completed the Jones (1968) Illogical Beliefs Questionnaire and the Cash (2004) Body Image Questionnaire before and after the interventions. SPSS-21 software and multivariate analysis of covariance were used for data analysis. The results showed that positive psychotherapy and schema therapy reduced illogical beliefs and increased body image in women applying cosmetic surgery (p<0.001) and their recovery rate was higher than the participants in the control group (p>0.001). Moreover, the results of the follow-up test indicated that there is no statistically significant difference between these two groups in illogical beliefs and body image (P < 0.05). The obtained results point to the greater use of these two interventions to change the psychological variables involved in the tendency towards cosmetic surgeries.

Abstract

This study aimed to compare the efficacy of positive psychotherapy training, Pennsylvania resilience, and mindfulness-based cognitive therapy on students’ academic well-being. A controlled pretest-posttest quasi-experimental study was conducted with a two-month follow-up. The statistical population included all third-year male students in Shahrekord public middle schools during the school year 2020-2021. Using the available sampling method, Sixty people were selected and randomly divided into four fifteen people experimental and control groups. Each of the experimental groups underwent six sessions, held twice weekly, of the Pennsylvania Resilience Program (Seligman et al., 2009), positive psychotherapy (Seligman et al., 2013), or mindfulness-based cognitive therapy (Segal et al., 2012). The controls did not receive any intervention during the same period. Tuominen-Soini et al.’s (2012) academic well-being Questionnaire constituted the research instrument. The data were analyzed using a mixed model analysis of variance. The results revealed a significant effect of positive psychotherapy training, Pennsylvania resilience, and mindfulness-based cognitive therapy on academic well-being on the scales of school value ) F= 20/558), school burnout (F= 29/52), academic satisfaction (F= 11/403), school work engagement (F= 8/608) and the stability of these programs in effect was in the follow-up phase (P<=0.05), but there was no significant difference between the three types of intervention compared to each other. Results show that all three interventions are effective in strengthening the learners' motivation, progress, and academic well-being by feeding coping resources and strengthening the mental strength of the learners and their psychological capital.

Abstract

This study was conducted to determine the effectiveness of positive psychotherapy on distress tolerance and quality of life of cardiovascular patients. The present study was a quasi-experimental study with a pre-test-post-test design and a control group with a three-month follow-up period. The statistical population of the study included all cardiovascular patients who had been referred to the Bandar-e Mahshahr Heart Hospital in the second half of 2024; 32 patients were randomly assigned to two experimental groups (n=16) and control groups (n=16) after meeting the inclusion criteria. The Distress Tolerance Scale (DTS-15; Simons & Gaher, 2005) and the World Health Organization Quality of Life Scale (WHOQOL; Whoqol Group, 1998) were used to collect data. The treatment program consisted of twelve 60-minute sessions, which were held individually, one session per week, for three months for the intervention group members. Repeated-measures analysis of variance was used to analyze the data. The results showed that there was a significant difference between the groups between pre-test, post-test, and follow-up in distress tolerance and quality of life (p<0.05) and positive psychotherapy had a lasting effect during the follow-up period (p<0.05). Overall, it can be concluded that positive psychotherapy was an effective treatment for improving distress tolerance and quality of life in cardiovascular patients.
