Abstract

Objective: The purpose of this study was to investigate the role of Bibliotherapy in improving children's mental status and increasing life expectancy in the treatment process.

Two groups received a book with motivational content .One group as control group don’t received book. Before and after the reading of book, children were asked to complete the Miller Hope Questionnaire. Finally, the data were analyzed by paired t test and one-way Anova test and P value Results: In this study, 40 children with cancer (21 males and 19 females, age range 7-9 years and mean ± SD= 78 ± 0.97) were recruited. In the first group, the rate of life expectancy was significantly higher than the pre-study of book “Salmone who dared and jumped higher” (P <0.001). In the second group, after reading the book "Doing Yourself", the life expectancy increase compared to before reading the book (P <0.01). The rate of life expectancy in children in control group after intervention was a bit higher than before (P <0.05).
Conclusion: In this study, for the first time, we showed that the use of books in the psychological domain of the child and the motivational content increases the life expectancy of children.
