Abstract
Purpose: The purpose of this study was to compare the effectiveness of systemic-structurally oriented couple therapy and the teaching of the pluralistic family communication model on marital satisfaction in women with breast cancer. Method: This is a semi-experimental research with pretest-posttest design with control group. The statistical population included all women with breast cancer referring to Tehran city one of Radiotherapy Clinic in 2015, among whom 30 were selected by objective sampling and interviews. They were randomly divided into three groups: pluralistic Family communication Model, Systemic-structurally oriented couple therapy and control group. Enrich marital satisfaction scale was used to collect the data. univariate analysis of covariance and Scheffe's post-hoc test was used for analyzing the data. Results: The results showed that systemic-structurally oriented couple therapy and communication model of pluralistic family significantly influenced marital satisfaction.(p<0.01). Also, the results of Scheffe's post-hoc test showed that the mean scores of the education group of pluralistic family communication model were significantly higher than the systemic-structural couple therapy group (p <0.001). Conclusion: The results of this study showed that between the two approaches of systemic-structurally oriented couple therapy and the teaching of the pluralistic family communication model, is more effective than systemic-structurally oriented treatment on couple satisfaction.Therefore, family communication model can be considered as a preferred treatment in counseling and psychotherapy centers for marital satisfaction in women with breast cancer.

Abstract
Aim: The aim of this study was to compare the effectiveness of acceptance, commitment and reality therapy based on self-care behaviors in female patients with breast cancer.
Methods: The design of the present study was a quasi-experimental group of three groups of pre-test-post-test with control group and with follow-up. The present study population was female patients with breast cancer aged 25 to 45 years who referred to the oncology ward of Imam Hossein Hospital in Tehran in the second half of 1398. In this study, three experimental groups were used, the number of people in each group was 20. The method was as follows: the first experimental group, the treatment protocol based on acceptance and commitment, and the second experimental group, the reality therapy intervention, were performed in eight sessions of 90 minutes. But the control group did not receive any intervention. Mixed analysis of variance was used to analyze the data.
Results: Finally, in examining the effectiveness of acceptance, commitment and reality therapy approaches, it was found that there is a difference between the effectiveness of acceptance and commitment therapy and reality therapy on self-care behaviors in female patients with breast cancer. In other words, reality therapy has a greater effect on increasing self-care behaviors in female patients with breast cancer than acceptance and commitment therapy.
Conclusion: Considering the effect of reality therapy approach on increasing self-care behaviors in female patients with breast cancer, the need for more attention and application of this approach and thus increasing the likelihood of self-care in patients is felt more than before.
