Aim and Background: The objective of the present study was the comparison of the efficacy of pharmacotherapy with mindfulness-based cognitive therapy (MBCT) in the reduction of the severity of symptoms in major depressive disorder (MDD). Methods and Materials: This quasi-experimental study with pretest-posttest and follow-up (1 month) was conducted from November to February of 2013. The statistical population consisted of all patients diagnosed with MDD by a psychiatrist based on DSM-5 diagnostic criteria and had medical records at the Sedigh Psychiatric Clinic in Khoramabad, Iran. The study participants consisted of 40 patients selected through convenience sampling method. The subjects were randomly assigned to the pharmacotherapy (n = 20) or MBCT groups (n = 20) and completed the Hamilton Depression Rating Scale (HDRS) (pretest). Then, the MBCT group received 8 sessions of MBCT and the pharmacotherapy group received a 20-mg fluoxetine capsule daily for 2 months. At the end of the intervention, posttest was performed on both groups. Data were analyzed using ANCOVA in SPSS software. Findings: The results of the present study indicated a significant difference between the pharmacotherapy and MBCT groups (P < 0.001); the mean scores of the pharmacotherapy group showed a more significant decrease compared to the MBCT group. Nevertheless, the effects of MBCT showed greater persistence over the follow-up period. Conclusions: The results showed that both treatment methods were effective in improving depression in patients. However, pharmacotherapy was more effective in reducing the symptoms of depression and MBCT had more persistent therapeutic effects. Therefore, based on the results of such studies, it is recommended that researchers design clinical trials with the integration of empiric therapy methods in future studies.

The purpose of the present study was to investigate the effectiveness of Mindfulness-based Cognitive Therapy on improving Anxiety and Depression in Hemodialysis Patients.

Methods and Materials: This study was a non-randomized, semi-experimental, pre-test, post-test design with two months follow-up. The statistical population of the study was hemodialysis patients referring to Tehran Hemodialysis Centers in 2017. From the statistical population, 24 people were selected by purposive sampling method and were randomly assigned into two experimental (n=12) and control (n=12) groups. Beck Depression Inventory and Beck Anxiety Inventory were used for data collection. Data were analyzed using SPSS-22 software and analysis of variance with repeated measures.

Findings: The results of analysis of variance with repeated measures showed that the variables of anxiety and depression changed during the post-test and follow-up stages, which is significant compared to the pre-test (p<.05). The results also showed that mindfulness variable had a significant effect on the components of anxiety and depression in hemodialysis patients (p<.05).

Conclusions: According to the results, it can be deduced that mindfulness training is effective in improving depression, anxiety compared to control group and that this treatment is in the follow-up phase in stable depression. But in the anxiety component, there was no such consistency. Reasons for this consistency include the ease of treatment and rapid patient education as well as the short duration of intervention sessions.

Aim and Background: Studies have shown that mindfulness affects many psychological variables. Therefore, the purpose of this study was to investigate the effectiveness of mindfulness-based cognitive therapy on sexual dysfunction and sexual satisfaction in women with meta-marital relationships.
Methods and Materials: The research method is quasi-experimental and applied. The research design was pre-test, post-test and experimental groups. The statistical population of the study consisted of all women with spouses with meta-marital relationship referring to Tehran Psychological Health Clinic. As a quasi-experimental type of study, 29 patients (control and experimental groups) were selected as sample size based on inclusion and exclusion criteria. Research instruments consisted of Sexual Satisfaction Questionnaire (LSSQ) and FSFI. In the present study, the shapiro wilk test was used to investigate the normal distribution of data. Data were analyzed using one way ANOVA, repeated measures test and Bonferroni post hoc test.

There was also a significant difference between the mean post-test and follow-up of sexual satisfaction and sexual function in the experimental group (p <0.001). The difference between pre-test and post-test for sexual satisfaction and sexual function in the control group was not significant (p = 0.552). There was also a decrease in mean post-test and follow-up of sexual satisfaction and sexual function in control group (p = 0.906).
Conclusions: It seems that mindfulness can affect many psychological variables such as sexual disorders and sexual satisfaction of women with spouses with meta-marital relationships. Further research is recommended to increase external validity.

Methods and Materials: This study was descriptive and correlative study. The statistical population consisted of all middle school students in city of Tabriz in academic year of 1397-98. Finally, data of 357 students (200 girls and 157 boys) who had been selected as research sample through multistage cluster sampling method, were analyzed. The research data were collected by Obsessive–Compulsive Inventory-Revised (OCI-R, Foa et al. 2002), Kentucky Inventory of Mindfulness Skills (KIMS), the short 18-item version of Garnefski and Kraaij’s Cognitive Emotion Regulation Questionnaire (CERQ-short) and Endler & Parker's Coping Inventory for Stressful Situations (CISS). The collected data were analyzed using Pearson correlation coefficient and stepwise multiple regression analysis.
Findings: The findings showed that self-blame of cognitive emotion regulation strategies (r=0.159, p<0.01) and avoidance-oriented of coping strategies (r=0.058, p<0.01) have a significant positive relationship with obsessive-compulsive disorder. Acceptance without judgment (r=-0.151, p<0.01) and description (r=-0.103, p<0.01) of mindfulness components and task-oriented coping style (r=-0.073, p<0.01) have a significant negative relationship with obsessive-compulsive disorder. Finally, self-blame and Acceptance without judgment were able to explain 3.9 percent of the variance of obsessive-compulsive disorder in two steps.
Conclusions: Considering these results, for preventing adolescents ‘obsessive-compulsive disorder, paying attention to self-blame and acceptance without judgment variables is so necessary.
