Abstract

Objective: The aim of this study was to compare the effectiveness of dialectical behavior therapy on self-control and adolescent distress tolerance of disordered mood disorders.
Methods: The research method was quasi-experimental pretest-posttest with a control group. The statistical population of this study was all male students aged 10 to 17 years in Kazerun in the academic year 1399-1400. The study sample consisted of 30 male students with disruptive mood disorder. Selection stages were assigned to experimental and control groups (15 people in each group). The research instruments were structured clinical interview, self-control scale (Tanji et al., 2004) and Simmons and Gaher (2005) Distress Tolerance Questionnaire. The collected data were statistically analyzed using multivariate analysis of covariance.
Results: The results showed that any dialectical behavior therapy had a significant effect on increasing self-control and distress tolerance in children with disruptive mood disorders (P≥0.001).
Conclusion: Therefore, it can be concluded that dialectical behavior therapy can be used as an appropriate intervention method along with drug therapy.
