Abstract

One of the chronic diseases whose diagnosis and treatment involve many psychological problems is breast cancer. Considering the nature of this disease, it seems necessary to use psychological treatment. The purpose of the current study was to investigate the effectiveness of compassion-based treatment in improving the performance of women with breast cancer. This study is a semi-experimental type and was done with a post-test and pre-test design and with two experimental and control groups. The statistical population of this study included female patients with breast cancer who had visited the hospital, and among them, thirty qualified volunteers were randomly included in the study. Data analysis was done using SPSS version 23 software and the covariance analysis method. According to the results of the current study, the impact of compassion-based treatment on happiness and family functioning in women with breast cancer was significant (p<0.001). The findings of the present study demonstrated that compassion-based treatment can have a positive impact on happiness and family functioning in women with breast cancer. Based on the results, it is recommended to use compassion-based treatment along with other treatment methods for health-related interventions, especially to reduce psychological problems in women with breast cancer.
