| Abstract: | ObjectiveIn this study, the effect of motivational interviewing on quality of life was evaluated in patients with epilepsy.MethodsFifty-six patients with epilepsy in a clinical trial were randomly assigned to intervention and control groups. Motivational interviewing during 5 sessions was applied for the intervention group, and the control group received health-care services. Quality-of-life questionnaire in epilepsy (QOLIE-89) was applied as pre- and posttest for both groups. Before and two months after intervention, both groups were assessed. Data were analyzed by independent t-test, Chi-square test, and paired t-test.ResultsThe data analysis showed that mean score of the QOLIE-89 was 38.94 ± 8.55 and 70.90 ± 7.99 in the intervention group before and after the intervention, respectfully, and 44.59 ± 12.27 and 36.52 ± 7.16 in the control group sequentially. The intervention group showed a significant score increase in their quality of life (p < 0.001), whereas the control group had a score decrease (p < 0.001).ConclusionMotivational interviewing approach could be used as an effective intervention method for improving patients' quality of life. |
