Introduction: Although war finished years ago, disabled veterans’ families, especially their wives, are still suffering from a lot of physical and psychological problems, which can seriously affect their well-being. The present study aimed to examine the effect of acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT) approach and mindfulness-based cognitive therapy (MBCT) approach on the resiliency and quality of life among disabled veterans’ wives with PTSD.
Method: In the present semi-experimental study, a pretest and a posttest were administered to the experimental and control groups, and the follow-up phase was carried out a month later. The statistical population included all the psychiatric disabled veterans’ wives with PTSD in Kuhdasht, Iran. A sample of 51 subjects was selected and randomly divided into 3 group .13 individuals were randomly assigned into the acceptance and commitment therapy group, 13 into the mindfulness-based cognitive therapy group, and 15 into the control group. WHOQOL- BREF and CD-RISC questionnaires were employed as the data collection instruments.
Results: The results of the present study revealed that ACT and MBCT approaches enhanced the participants’ scores in resiliency and quality of life (p<0.01). The results of one-month follow-up study further indicated that the effect remained unchanged (p<0.01). Both interventions were affective and a comparison of the two approaches indicated that ACT has more efficiency.
Discussion: The results of the present study showed that both ACT and MBCT approaches enhanced resiliency and quality of life among the disabled veterans’ wives with PTSD.
