Objective: Eating disorders are one of the common mental and psychosomatic disorders that cause many problems in the physical health and mental performance of a person. Many people with bulimia have mental rumination regarding their body type. Patients who engage in mental rumination consider it a way to gain insight into their problem and through it they focus on themselves, the problematic situation and their feelings. In other words, they think that mental rumination helps them to solve their problems, while answering problems through mental rumination causes more tension and problems. On the other hand, self-acceptance in these people is lower than others. A person with low agreeableness tends to seek isolation and is afraid of and avoids communication with others. The purpose of this research was to compare the effectiveness of therapeutic schema training in comparison with acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT) with self-acceptance and rumination in women with diabetes and anorexia nervosa. Method: This is a semi-experimental study with a pre-test-post-test design and a control group with a two-month follow-up. The statistical population was all women with simultaneous disorder of diabetes and psychogenic anorexia in Mashhad city in the first half of 1402 who had referred to medical centers. 45 people were selected by purposeful sampling and randomly divided into three groups: schema therapy (15 people), acceptance and commitment therapy (15 people) and control group (15 people). Chamberland and Haga (2001) questionnaire was used to evaluate self-efficacy, and Trinoor et al. The therapeutic schema experimental group underwent the educational package intervention of Yang et al. (2003) and the acceptance and commitment experimental group underwent the therapeutic intervention of Hizo colleagues (2012) for ten one-hour sessions. The data was analyzed by the statistical method of analysis of variance with repeated measurements. Results: The results showed that the intervention of therapeutic schema and acceptance and commitment is effective on mental rumination (P<0.01), (F=29.63) and self-acceptance (P<0.01), (F=49.83) and this The effect is stable in the follow-up phase. The results of Shefe's follow-up test showed that there is a significant difference in self-acceptance and rumination between the two groups of acceptance and commitment and therapeutic schema (P<0.05); Therefore, acceptance and commitment have had a greater effect on reducing rumination and increasing women's self-acceptance. Conclusion: According to the results, it can be said that by teaching psychological treatment approaches such as schema and acceptance and commitment therapy, women can be helped in controlling diabetes and preventing their nervous overeating. Also, by controlling binge eating, they can be protected from the side effects of physical, psychological and social damage of binge eating, and thus have healthier mothers and a healthier society.

Objective: The research explores the effectiveness of mindfulness training on executive functions in professional bodybuilders with physical injuries, with a focus on its impact on reducing mental rumination. The study investigates how mindfulness may influence cognitive functions and whether this influence is mediated by a decrease in mental rumination among the athletes. Method: he research is an applied semi-experimental study employing a randomized controlled trial design. It focuses on professional bodybuilders with physical injuries in Tehran, with a final sample of 40 participants. The participants were randomly assigned to experimental and control groups. Both groups completed pretests, and the experimental group received a 12-session mindfulness program while the control group had no intervention. Posttests were administered to both groups. Executive Function Questionnaire (EFQ), Ruminative Response Styles (RRS), and a Mindfulness Program Protocol were utilized as research tools. Analysis of covariance (ANCOVA) was used for data analysis, and path analysis assessed the mediating role of rumination in the intervention's effectiveness on executive functions. Results: Results Summary: After adjusting for pretest differences, there was a significant reduction in posttest rumination scores in the experimental group compared to the control group (P < 0.01, F = 37.14), with 28% of the changes attributed to the intervention. Mindfulness intervention effectively decreased rumination (P < 0.01). Moreover, 79% of the changes in posttest scores of executive functions were linked to the intervention. Significant differences in posttest scores were observed in overall executive functions (P < 0.01, F = 31.38), memory (P < 0.01, F = 31.52), inhibitory control and selective attention (P < 0.01, F = 31.69), and decision-making (P < 0.01, F = 31.28). No significant differences were found in planning, sustained attention, social cognition, and cognitive flexibility (P > 0.05). The effect size indicated that 28% of changes in executive functions, 63% in memory, 77% in inhibitory control and selective attention, and 48% in decision-making were due to the intervention. Path analysis showed significant coefficients for the influence of the mindfulness program on executive functions, memory, inhibitory control, and decision-making. Rumination played a mediating role in the effectiveness of the mindfulness program on executive functions. Conclusion: Mindfulness-based therapy effectively reduces cognitive distortions in professional bodybuilder athletes with physical injuries. By cultivating awareness through deep breathing and thoughtful attention, the therapy enhances mental well-being. The study highlights the mediating role of cognitive distortions in the effectiveness of mindfulness on executive functions. This suggests that mindfulness intervention positively influences executive functions by mitigating cognitive distortions. The findings advocate for the incorporation of mindfulness programs in sports psychology and therapy centers to enhance athletes' mental health.
