چکیده

مقدمه: هدف از پژوهش حاضر تعیین اثربخشی درمان فراتشخیصی یکپارچه بر خطاهای شناختی، نشخوار فکری و اجتناب شناختی مبتلایان به اختلال اضطراب اجتماعی بود.
روش: طرح پژوهش تک آزمودنی با خط پایه چندگانه (ABAB) و پیگیری یک ماهه بود. جامعه آماری افراد مبتلا به اضطراب اجتماعی مراجعه­ کننده به کلینیک آروین در تهران، در سال 1400 بود که از این تعداد 3 نفر به شیوه نمونه­ گیری داوطلبانه دردسترس انتخاب شدند. تعداد 12 جلسه درمان فراتشخیصی یکپارچه روی آزمودنی­ها اجرا شد. ابزار گردآوری داده­ ها مقیاس پاسخ­های نشخواری نولن هوکسما و مارو، پرسشنامه اجتناب شناختی، پرسشنامه تحریف‌های شناختی، و پرسشنامه هراس اجتماعی بود. درمان مورد استفاده، پروتکل فراتشخیصی یکپارچه به مدت دوازده جلسه در دوماه، هفته‌ای یکساعت بود. برای تجزیه و تحلیل داده­ها از فرمول درصد بهبودی، اندازه اثر کوهن و ترسیم دیداری استفاده شد.
یافته ­ها: نتایج تجزیه و تحلیل داده­ها نشان داد درمان فراتشخیصی یکپارچه (UP) موجب بهبود متغیرهای پژوهشی شده است به گونه­ای که درصد بهبودی کلی اضطراب اجتماعی در هر سه آزمودنی به ترتیب 57%، 59% و 48% بود و این میزان در پیگیری یک ماهه نیز ثابت ماند.
نتیجه­ گیری: نتایج تجزیه و تحلیل داده­ها حاکی از اثربخشی درمان فراتشخیصی یکپارچه در کاهش خطاهای شناختی، نشخوار فکری و اجتناب شناختی در آزمودنی­ها می­باشد. این درمان می‌تواند به‌عنوان آموزش برای توان‌بخشی و ارتقای کیفیت زندگی بیماران مبتلا به اضطراب اجتماعی به کار رود.
