Introduction: Obesity is a complex disease with multifactorial etiology, which is sometimes the cause and effect of another disease such as diabetes.
Aim: The present study was conducted with the aim of comparing the effectiveness of self-compassion therapy and interpersonal psychotherapy on emotional regulation and cognitive fusion in obese patients.
Method: The research method was applied and semi-experimental with a pre-test, post-test design with a control group. The statistical population of the research included all the women suffering from obesity in Arak city in 2018, using available sampling method, 45 people were randomly selected into three groups of treatment based on self-compassion (15 people), interpersonal psychotherapy ( 15 people) and the control group (15 people) were replaced. The data collection tool was the Cognitive Emotion Regulation Questionnaire and the Cognitive Fusion Questionnaire. Data analysis was analyzed through analysis of covariance using spss software version 24.
Results: The results of covariance analysis showed that there is a significant difference between the two experimental groups and the control group (P<0.01), and interpersonal psychotherapy is more effective in improving emotional regulation skills than self-compassion-based therapy (P<0.001, F=27.57) and reduced cognitive fusion (p<0.001, F=32.835).
Conclusion: Based on the findings of the research, interpersonal psychotherapy led to the improvement of emotions in obese patients by increasing and improving discipline skills and reducing cognitive fusion; so it is suggested to use these methods along with other treatment methods to improve the quality of life of obese women.
