Abstract

The present study was conducted with the aim of comparing the effectiveness of two group spirituality therapy approaches with acceptance and commitment based therapy on increasing the life expectancy and Happiness of cancer patients in Kermanshah city. The research method was a quasi-experimental pre-test-post-test type with a control group. The statistical population of this research included all cancer patients referred to Taleghani Hospital in Kermanshah. The sampling method was available (with the approval of a specialist doctor and undergoing chemotherapy) and they were divided into three groups of 15 people, which include two test groups and one control group. Eight ninety-minute spiritual therapy sessions were given to the first experimental group and eight ninety-minute training sessions based on acceptance and commitment therapy were presented to the second experimental group. Schneider et al.'s (1991) life expectancy scale and Schneider et al.'s (1991) Happiness scale were used to collect data. The results showed that spiritual therapy is effective in increasing life expectancy and Happiness, treatment based on acceptance and commitment is effective in increasing life expectancy and Happiness of cancer patients, and the results of the research showed that spiritual therapy is more effective than acceptance-based therapy. And commitment to increasing life expectancy and Happiness among cancer patients has a greater effect. Therefore, by performing psychological interventions on time, it is possible to help increase the life expectancy and Happiness, speed up recovery and reduce the length of hospitalization in the hospital, and finally reduce the hospital costs in these patients, and change the physical outlook and pay more attention to psychological aspects in this group of patients.
