The Effects of Compassion-Focused Therapy on Social Adjustment in Female Prisoners

Materials and Methods: This was a descriptive, quasi-experimental study with a pre-test-post-test and a control group design. The research population comprised all female prisoners in Rasht City, Iran, in 2017. By the convenience sampling method, 30 individuals were randomly assigned in two groups of experimental and control. Both groups completed the Cognitive Emotion Regulation Questionnaire (CERQ) before the intervention. The experimental group received eight 90-minute sessions of CFT; however, the controls received no intervention. The obtained data were analyzed using descriptive statistics and Multivariate Analysis of Covariance (MANCOVA) in SPSS.
