Abstract: (39 Views)
Background: Living with mobility disabilities can be associated with psychological and social challenges. Certain interventions have been found to assist individuals with disabilities in coping with issues related to pain and rumination.
Objectives: This study aimed to evaluate the effectiveness of mindful compassion in reducing pain catastrophizing and rumination among women with mobility disabilities.
Method: This quasi-experimental study employed a pre-test–post-test design with a control group. Thirty women with mobility disabilities at Kahrizak Charity Center, Iran (2024), were voluntarily recruited and randomly assigned to intervention and control groups. The intervention consisted of 12 weekly 90-minute mindful compassion sessions. Data (RRS, PCS) were analyzed using multivariate and univariate covariance analyses in SPSS-24.
Results: The results showed that mindful compassion significantly decreased pain catastrophizing among women with mobility disabilities (p < 0.01). Additionally, mindful compassion was found to significantly decrease rumination in these women (p < 0.01).
Conclusion: Mindful compassion proves to be an effective intervention for reducing both psychological and physical challenges in women with mobility disabilities. This intervention may be considered a valuable therapeutic approach in conjunction with other medical and rehabilitation treatments.
