Abstract: (328 Views)
Background:
This research was conducted with the aim of comparing the effectiveness of educational techniques based on acceptance and commitment and schema therapy on career motivation and happiness of medical students.
Method:
This research is semi-experimental (design of pre-test, post-test and follow-up test with control group). The statistical population of the research included all medical students in Isfahan, and 42 students were randomly selected in the occupational motivation (14 people), happiness (14 people) and control (14 people) groups. Oxford Happiness Questionnaire and Hackman & Oldham Job Motivation Questionnaire (1975) are the instruments used in the research. Independent variables were performed for two experimental groups. The first and second experimental groups received schema therapy and an approach based on acceptance and commitment. The third group, as the control group, did not receive any treatment during the research. The data was analyzed based on variance analysis with repeated measurements.
Results:
The results of the research show that the average of the variables is still high even in the follow-up stage, in addition to the post-test. The effectiveness of both approaches has had an effect size of 45% on increasing the happiness of medical students and 22% on career motivation.
Conclusion:
The approach based on acceptance and commitment by changing thoughts and beliefs and the approach based on schema therapy with more emphasis on the evolutionary roots of psychological problems are effective in reducing these beliefs and increasing motivation and happiness in medical students.
