Objective: The present study was conducted to investigate the effectiveness of unified trans-diagnostic treatment on the emotional expression and sexual function of the infertile women. Method: It was a quasi-experimental study with pretest, posttest and control group design. Two-month follow-up period was administered too. The statistical population included infertile women who referred to Infertility Clinic at Mother and Child Hospital and Samar Infertility Clinic in the city of Shiraz in the winter of 2021. Thirty six infertile women were selected through voluntary sampling method and randomly accommodated into experimental and control groups. The experimental group received ten sessions of unified trans-diagnostic treatment during two-and-a-half-months. The applied questionnaires in this study included Emotional Expression Questionnaire (EEQ) (King, Emmons, 1990) and Sexual Function Questionnaire (Keraskian, Mojembari and Kaiballah, 2014). The collected data were analyzed through mixed ANOVA via SPSS23 software. Findings: The results showed that unified trans-diagnostic treatment has significant effect on the emotional expression (F=39.82; Eta=0.54; P<0001) and sexual function (F=31.88; Eta=0.49; P<0001) in the infertile women. Conclusion: According to the findings of the present study it can be concluded that unified trans-diagnostic treatment can be used as an efficient therapy to improve emotional expression and sexual function in the infertile women through employing techniques such as identifying emotions, emotional awareness, cognitive reassessment, and identifying patterns of emotion avoidance.

Objective: Diabetes is one of the chronic diseases that emotional problems can interfere with its treatment. The aim of this study was to compare the effectiveness of religion-based cognitive-behavioral therapy (RCBT) and resilience training in expressing emotion in patients with type 2 diabetes. Method: This was a quasi-experimental study with pre-test and post-test design and control group. Among type 2 diabetic patients referred to comprehensive health care centers by purposive sampling, 45 people were selected as the final sample and then randomly selected in simple Three groups of 15 people including two experimental groups and one control group were assigned. One experimental group received 10 sessions of 60 minutes of RCBT and the other group received 9 sessions of 60 minutes of resilience training. Data were analyzed using multivariate analysis of covariance and benferroni test. Findings: The results showed that there was a difference between the experimental groups and the control group in the post-test of expression of emotion with the control of the pre-test at 95% confidence level (P<0.05). Also, there is no difference between religion-based cognitive-behavioral therapy and resilience training at 95% confidence level (P<0.05). Conclusion: The results showed that religion-based cognitive-behavioral therapy and resilience training is effective in increasing the expression of emotion in diabetic patients and can be useful as an adjunctive therapy for diabetic patients.
