Background: The purpose of this study was to investigate the effectiveness of self-compassion training on distress tolerance, anxiety sensitivity and emotional self-control in women with type 2 diabetes.
Methods: This research was experimental and semi-experimental using the pre-test-post-test method with a control group. The statistical population of the intended research included all women with type 2 diabetes in 1402 who visited endocrinologists' offices in Sari, who were selected using a targeted method and then were placed randomly divided into two experimental and control groups. The data were collected using the Distress Tolerance Questionnaire of Simmons and Gaher (2005), anxiety sensitivity of Reis et al. (1986) and emotional self-control by Tanji (2004). Then, the data were analyzed using multivariate and univariate covariance methods in SPSS-24 software.
Results: The results showed that the treatment focused on compassion is effective on distress tolerance, anxiety sensitivity and emotional self-control of women with type 2 diabetes.
Conclusion: In fact, the treatment focused on compassion makes the person distance himself from blaming, condemning and self-criticism, which are all examples of lack of emotional self-control, and instead stabilizes his emotional self-control in the first stage and gradually be strengthened. Focused training on compassion can be one of the effective options in improving the quality of life and psychological distress, along with other medical interventions.
