Introduction: Introduction: Depression is a common mental disorder in the elderly and brings many complications to them. Therefore, this research was conducted with the aim of determining the effectiveness of compassion-based therapy on the perception of aging, self-care behaviors and pain catastrophizing in depressed elderly.
Methods: The research method was semi-experimental with a pre-test-post-test-one-month follow-up design with a control group.The statistical population included all elderly women suffering from depression in Sadeghieh Nursing Home, Isfahan city, and 30 of them were selected by census sampling and randomly replaced in the subject group and the control group. Data collection tools included standard Beck depression questionnaires, perception of aging, elderly self-care and pain catastrophizing. The subject group received compassion-based therapy in 8 sessions 90-minute.The data was analyzed by variance analysis with repeated measurements using SPSS-27 software.
Results: The average scores of aging perception and self-care in the experimental group increased more and pain catastrophizing decreased more than the control group. Therefore, compassion-based therapy has a significant effect on the perception of aging, self-care behaviors and pain catastrophizing in depressed elderly people of Isfahan city (p≤0.05); But this effect was not permanent in the follow-up stage of aging perception (p≥0.05)
Conclusion: According to the results of this study, compassion-based therapy can be an effective intervention in improving the perception of aging, self-care behaviors and reducing pain catastrophizing in depressed elderly.
