The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effectiveness of holographic reprocessing therapy on cognitive flexibility, affective control and social adjustment on depressive patients with attempted suicide in ilam city. The research method This experimental study was conducted based on a pre-posttest design with a control group. The statistical population of this study included all depressed patients who attempted suicide in Ilam during 2018. In total 30 participants were selected through a simple random sampling and assigned randomly into experimental and control groups. The data were collected using Cognitive Flexibility Scale (Denis and Vendoral), Affective Control (Williams & Chambles), Social Adjustment (Bell) and Holographic Reprocessing Therapy Package (Katz). The results of multivariate analysis of covariance showed that was a statistically significant difference between cognitive flexibility, affective control and social adjustment in the experimental group (holographic reprocessing therapy) and the control group (F = 70.502, P <0.000). The results of ANCOVA test also showed that holographic reprocessing therapy in the experimental group increased cognitive flexibility (F = 304/338, P <0.000), affective control (F = 1047/377, P <0.000) and social adjustment (F = 1725/3225 / P <0.000) in the depressed patients who attempted suicide. According to the results of this study, holographic reprocessing therapy can be used to treat depression disorders and intervention in critical situations such as suicide attempt.
