Abstract

Objective: The present research aims to analyze the efficacy of group Metacognitive Therapy (MCT) on selfesteem and Mental Health of those who suffer from Major Depressive Disorder. Methods: The research was a randomized clinical controlled trial, using pretest and posttest with 2 months of follow-up. Twenty-two patients with Major Depressive Disorder based on DSM-IV-TR criteria were selected through available sampling from patients of two psychiatric hospitals of Mashhad, Iran, in 2011. They were allocated randomly into two groups of trial (n = 11) and control (n = 11). Citalopram and sertraline were prescribed as antidepressant to both groups. The experimental group also attended nine 90-minute sessions of MCT (a 5-week program). Eysenck Self-esteem scale (ESES) and Mental Health Checklist (MHC) were used in pretest, posttest, and follow-up as the study instrument. The data were analyzed by analysis of covariance (ANCOVA) using SPSS. Results: ANCOVA revealed that the patients receiving group MCT had significantly increased (p < 0. 001) Self-esteem in posttest, which remained significant in the follow up (p < 0. 001). Moreover, Mental Health scores had increased in the MCT group (posttest, p < 0. 001; follow up, p < 0. 001). Conclusion: Group MCT has beneficial therapeutic roles in improving the self-steam and recuperation of Mental Health in MDD patients.
