The mean score of communication skills in the pre-test and post-test was 1.4000 and in the cognitive behavioral therapy test group was 4.4000 and in the Schema therapy group was 1.2000 and in the post test it was 4.7000 and the difference was significant (p<0.01)and this rate in the control group in pre-test9.000 and post-test 8.7500 which were not significantly different.
Mean score of problem solving in pre-test and post-test 0.8000 and 5.5000 in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and experimental groups respectively.
