Abstract :
Obsessive Compulsive Disorder is one of the disorders that affects all aspect of life and leaves destructive effects in patients' lives in the long term. The aim of this study was to compare the effectiveness of acceptance and commitment therapy along with exposure and response prevention with schema therapy along with exposure and response prevention on perfectionism and experiential avoidance of patients with obsessive-compulsive disorder. It was semi-experimental research that had pre-test and post-test with a control group. The statistical population of the present study included all patients with obsessive-compulsive disorder in 2023 in Isfahan city. After the clinical interview, 60 people were selected by available sampling method and randomly assigned in two experimental groups and one control group (20 people in each group). The experimental groups received eight 60-minute sessions of acceptance and commitment therapy with exposure and response prevention and schema therapy with exposure and response prevention. Frost's perfectionism questionnaire and acceptance and action questionnaire second version were used in this research. The results were evaluated through the statistical method of multivariate analysis of covariance. The findings data showed that the effectiveness of both treatments on perfectionism and experiential avoidance were statistically significant. Schema therapy with exposure and response prevention is more effective on experiential avoidance and the effectiveness of both treatments on perfectionism was the same. It is suggested to use schema therapy or acceptance and commitment therapy along with exposure and response prevention.
