تعیین اثربخشی روش حساسیت‌زدایی منظم با حرکات چشم و پردازش مجدد بر تنش‌های روانی (اضطراب و افسردگی) زنان مطلقه

زمینه و هدف: طلاق سبب بروز انواع آسیب‌ها و ناتوانی‌های روانی‌عاطفی مانند افسردگی و اضطراب در ابعاد فردی و اجتماعی در زنان مطلقه می‌شود. هدف پژوهش حاضر، تعیین اثربخشی روش حساسیت‌زدایی منظم با حرکات چشم و پردازش مجدد بر تنش‌های روانی (اضطراب و افسردگی) زنان مطلقه بود.روش‌بررسی: روش این پژوهش نیمه‌آزمایشی با طرح پیش‌آزمون و پس‌آزمون همراه با گروه گواه بود. از بین تمامی زنان مطلقه مراجعه‌کننده به مراکز مشاوره و خدمات روان‌شناختی منطقهٔ ده شهر تهران در شش ماه دوم سال 1397، تعداد سی نفر داوطلب واجد شرایط به‌روش نمونه‌گیری دردسترس انتخاب شدند. سپس به‌صورت گمارش تصادفی در دو گروه پانزده‌نفری آزمایش و گواه قرار گرفتند. برای گروه آزمایش مداخلهٔ حساسیت‌زدایی با حرکت‌های چشم و بازپردازش براساس پروتکل شاپیرو طی شش جلسهٔ شصت‌دقیقه‌ای انجام شد؛ اما گروه گواه آموزشی دریافت نکرد. به‌منظور جمع‌آوری داده‌ها در مراحل پیش‌آزمون و پس‌آزمون، از ابعاد افسردگی و اضطراب چک‌لیست نشانه‌های اختلالات روانی (دراگتیس، 1983) استفاده شد. تحلیل داده‌ها با استفاده از نرم‌افزار spss نسخهٔ 22 و آزمون تحلیل کوواریانس چندمتغیری در سطح معنا‌داری 0٫05=α صورت گرفت.یافته‌ها: نتایج نشان داد، پس از حذف اثر نمرات پیش‌آزمون، در پس‌آزمون میانگین نمرات اضطراب و افسردگی گروه آزمایش درمقایسه با گروه گواه به‌طور معنا‌داری کاهش یافت (0٫001>p).نتیجه‌گیری: براساس یافته‌های پژوهش نتیجه گرفته می‌شود، روش حساسیت‌زدایی منظم با حرکات چشم و پردازش مجدد بر کاهش اضطراب و افسردگی زنان مطلقه موثر است؛ بنابراین درمان مذکور می‌تواند به‌عنوان درمانی مکمل در حل مشکلات روان‌شناختی زنان مطلقه استفاده شود.
