Abstract
Background: Psychosocial improvements of successful strabismus surgery have been reported in previous studies. But the effect of strabismus surgery on the emotional intelligence of patients is unclear. The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of strabismus surgery on emotional quotient in patients referring to Imam Khomeini Hospital, Ahvaz.
Methods: This prospective interventional study conducted on patients underwent strabismus surgery in Imam Khomeini Hospital, Ahvaz during May 2021 to March 2022. A total of 38 patients between 8-37 years were included. Patients with previous surgery were excluded. All subjects were evaluated before and three months after successful strabismus surgery. Three months post-surgery the improvement of emotional quotient, self-esteem, body image, social anxiety and social avoidance were evaluated and compared with previous surgery. All data were analyzed by SPSS (V25). P-Value less than 0.05 was considered as significant level.
Results: 38 subjects including 18 males (47.4%) and 20 females (52.6%) were included. The mean age of patients was 18.11±9.33 years old. Our results showed that compared with before surgery, significant improvements were noted after surgery, within the emotional quotient subscales including self-awareness (P=0.016), self-regulation (P<0.0001), self-motivation (P<0.0001), empathy (P<0.0001), social skills (P<0.0001) and emotional quotient total score (P<0.0001). Further analysis revealed statistically significant improvements in body image (P<0.0001), social anxiety (P=0.004) and social avoidance (P=0.002). The result showed that the improvement of emotional quotient after strabismus surgery was significantly higher in the age group of less than 12 years (P<0.0001). No significant difference was fund between two  genders for emotional quotient subscales (P>0.05).
Conclusion: The results of this study showed a significant improvement in the psychosocial factors including emotional quotient, body image, social anxiety and social avoidance after strabismus surgery. This result suggests that beyond functional and cosmetic improvements, successful strabismus surgery can result in improved emotional quotient and social anxiety, with the greatest effect noted in younger patients.

Methods: semi-experimental research was used with a pre-test and post-test design. The target population was female students of the first and second grade of high school who attempted suicide and referred to the counseling center of the General Directorate of Education, and the research was conducted from the time of data collection to the time of implementation from May 2022 to June 2023 was conducted in the counseling center under the supervision of the science and research department of Islamic Azad University, Tehran branch, was conducted and the available sampling method was selected and randomly and a total of 30 people were divided into two experimental groups (15 people) and control groups (15 people). First, Connor and Davidson's resilience questionnaire (2003) was taken from all three groups. The experimental group underwent eight 90-minute sessions of emotion-focused compassion therapy, while the control group received no intervention. After the end of the treatment sessions, the resilience questionnaire of Connor and Davidson (2003) was administered again and repeated after one month of follow-up. The collected data were analyzed using statistical tests (multivariate analysis of covariance and analysis of variance).
Results:  The results obtained from the data analysis showed a significant difference in the pre-test, post-test and follow-up resilience averages in the three groups. Resilience scores for the experimental groups were significant at P < 0.05, which indicates a significant difference. Additionally, the compassion-focused therapy group showed greater improvements in resilience compared to the emotion-focused group.
Conclusion: These findings confirm the positive effect of both types of treatment on the resilience of female students who have previously attempted suicide, and compassion-focused therapy was more effective than emotion-focused therapy
