The English Summary
Epilepsy is a neurological disease affecting organic human brain,
and the increase in shipments of electrical discharge, which requires
cross-epileptic seizures.
This study aimed to effectiveness of cognitive behavioral
therapeutical program to reduce seizure frequency and some comorbidity
psychological symptoms in Egyptian samples of
intractable epilepsy"
Problem of the study:
The study problem can be summarized in the following questions.
Testing the effectiveness of cognitive behavioral therapeutical
program to reduce seizure frequency and some co-morbidity
psychological symptoms in Egyptian samples of intractable
epilepsy?
The Study aims at:
Studying is an important aspect of studying “effectiveness of
cognitive behavioral therapeutical program to reduce seizure
frequency and some co-morbidity psychological symptoms in
Egyptian samples of intractable epilepsy"
Importance of the study:
We can black in the importance of this study and the reasons for it in
the following:
Trying to reduce the medicine doses (anticonvulsants) which have
side effects.
Epilepsy is economic and social problem that cannot be ignored.
The existence of a person affected with epilepsy in the family leads
to the disturbance of life.
Hypotheses of the study:
There is statistically significant effect of cognitive behavioral therapeutical
program on reducing seizure frequency.
There is statistically significant effect of cognitive behavioral therapeutical
program on reducing the degree of some co-morbidity psychological
symptoms.
Participants of the study:
The sample includes "12" patients of epilepsy. The age of the members of
the sample ranged between 20-50 years old. And the sample was divided
into two group each one receiving a type of treatment and a control group
that did not receive any psychological treatment (n=6) for each group.
The statistical styles:
-Mean and Std.Deviation
- Man witeny U. test
- Wilcoxon- Mathched paird signed Rank test
The study results:
1- The first assumption has been achieved there are statistically significant
differences between the pre and post measures to the treatment and a
control group on reducing the degree of some co-morbidity psychological
symptoms attitude direction treatment group.welkokson’stest was used to
specify the place of these differences as (z)value for the differences
between the pre and post measures there are statistically significant
differences between the pre and post measures to the treatment group
2- The second assumption has been achieved there are statistically
significant differences between the pre and post measures to the treatment
and a control group on reducing seizure frequency attitude direction
treatment group. welkokson’s test was used to specify the place of these
differences as (z)value for the differences between the pre and post
measures there are statistically significant differences between the pre and
post measures to the treatment group
3- The third assumption has been achieved there are no statistically
significant differences between post 1 and post 2 measures to the treatment
group on reducing the degree of some co-morbidity psychological
symptoms attitude direction treatment group and seizure frequency.
