Introduction: Mothers with disabled children have problems with their sleep quality. This research was conducted with the aim of Comparing the Effectiveness of Solution Focused Narrative Therapeutic Approach (SFNT) and Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction (MBSR) on Sleep Quality in Mothers of Male children with Gross Motor Disabilities.
Methods: The current research was semi-experimental with a pre-test and post-test design with experimental and control groups. The statistical population of the research included all mothers with Gross Motor disabled children that referred to Movafaghit Counseling Center in Tehran in the year 2022, of which there were 45 mothers who met the criteria for entering the study, were selected and randomly assigned to three groups (two experimental groups(Solution Focused Narrative Therapeutic Approach (SFNT=15) and Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction (MBSR=15) and one control group=15). The data was collected by Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI). The data were analyzed through Multiple Analysis of Variance and LSD post hoc test and with SPSS-26 statistical software.
Results: The results indicated that in the post-test phase, there is a statistically significant difference between the average score of quality of sleep in the three groups (P<0.05). However, the Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction (MBSR) (17.53 ±1.47; P<0.05) compared to the Solution Focused Narrative Therapeutic Approach (SFNT) (13,53 ±1.07; P<0.05) had a greater effect on increasing the quality of sleep.
Conclusion: The results showed that both therapies can lead to an increase in the quality of mothers' sleep. However, Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction (MBSR) had a greater effect on sleep quality compared to Solution Focused Narrative Therapeutic Approach (SFNT). Psychological interventions can be useful for caring for the mother and her child. |
