Abstract

Objective: The majority of cancer patients have a poor quality of life. It seems that mindfulness-based group cognitive therapy can improve quality of life in these patients. Therefore, this study was conducted with the aim of evaluating the effectiveness of mindfulness-based group cognitive therapy in improving quality of life among patients with cancer. Methods: The present study is a quasi-experimental research with pre-test and post-test with control group. The sample population consisted of 30 cancer patients selected through purposive sampling method who were randomly placed in two experimental and control groups (15 subjects per group). All subjects completed the quality of life questionnaire in pre-test and post-test stages. The findings were analyzed by the SPSS software and multivariate analysis of covariance tests. Results: The results showed that there is a significant difference between the control and experimental groups. It was shown that mindfulness-based group cognitive therapy had a significant effect on improving quality of life in experimental group (p< 0. 01). Conclusion: According to the results, it can be proposed that it is necessary for health centers and support associations to use mindfulness-based group cognitive therapy to improve their patients’ quality of life.
