Abstract: (2002 Views) |
Introduction: Marital infidelity can cause severe emotional consequences in couples. Marital infidelity leads to deep conflicts, separation, divorce, and psychological and social damage. The present study aimed to compare the effectiveness of "Hypnotherapy" and "Schema Therapy" on mental health in men and women who have been in marital infidelity in Tehran.
Methods: The present research method was semi-experimental with a pre-test-post-test design and a control group. The statistical population included all the cheated couples in Tehran who had been referred to the Psychological Counseling Center in Tehran in the second half of 2022 due to the psychological consequences of marital infidelity. Sampling was done in a non-random and convenience method. First, 48 people were selected and then replaced in the first and second intervention groups and the control group (16 people in each group) in a simple random way using the lottery method. The research instruments were a demographic questionnaire and "Symptom Check List-90-Revised" to measure the symptoms of mental disorders. Content validity and face validity were measured by the qualitative method and reliability by the internal consistency method by calculating Cronbach's alpha coefficient. People in the "Hypnotherapy" group were treated in 8 sessions of 90 minutes and in the "Schema Therapy" group in 20 sessions of 90 minutes. The control group received the therapy after completing the study. Data were analyzed using SPSS. 22 software.
Results: The two therapy methods used were effective in increasing the mental health of the participants (P<0.05), but the difference between "Hypnotherapy" and "Schema Therapy" is not significant at the 0.05 level.
Conclusions: Considering the effectiveness of "Hypnotherapy" and "Schema Therapy" on increasing mental health, it is suggested that counseling centers and family clinics use these two therapy methods for unfaithful spouses.
