چکیده

Introduction: This study examined the effectiveness of Mindfulness-Based Cognitive Therapy (MBCT) on depression, dysfunctional beliefs, and self-esteem among mothers raising children with intellectual disabilities.
 
Materials and Methods: In this cross-sectional study, 24 mothers recruited through convenience sampling were randomly assigned into experimental and control groups. The experimental group received nine 2-hour sessions of MBCT. We assessed the participants using the Beck Depression Inventory-II, the Coopersmith Self-Esteem Inventory, and the Dysfunctional Attitudes Scale.
 
Results: The data showed that mindfulness-based cognitive therapy significantly reduced depression (P= 0.001), dysfunctional beliefs (P= 0.000), and increased self-esteem (P= 0.000) in the experimental group. The effect size for the mentioned variables was 0.429, 0.497, and 0.568, respectively. The greatest effect of the intervention was observed on improving family self-esteem (P= 0.000) and reducing perfectionistic beliefs (P= 0.002).
 
Conclusion: Overall the findings of the study showed that MBCT can reduce depression and increase self-esteem by enhancing acceptance, reducing rumination, and improving emotional regulation. It is suggested that this method be included in support programs for mothers of children with intellectual disabilities.
