Abstract

Introduction: The current research aimed to examine the effectiveness of the Mode Deactivation Therapy (MDT) on improving communicational skills and self-esteem of patients with HSAN2. Method: The research design was quasi-experimental single case with multiple baselines. The statistical population of the research included 50 patients with HSAN2 all over the world from whom 2 were recruited (one from Iran and one from Canada) using purposive sampling method with inclusion-exclusion criteria. The patients filled out the Interpersonal Communication Skills Questionnaire and the Rosenberg Self-Esteem Scale. The data were analyzed using clinical significance, visual inspection, diagnostic improvement and the six indices of efficacy. Results: According to the results, the total percentage of improvement for communicational skills and self-esteem were 52.65 and 53.57, respectively. Conclusion: One can conclude that the Mode Deactivation Therapy (MDT) was effective in improving communicational skills and self-esteem of the patients with HSAN2 through identifying maladjustment core beliefs and replacing them with useful alternatives via the verification-clarification-validation process.
