The research tool is a content analysis checklist by examining the magnitude of the effect of each of the second and third wave psychotherapies. The effect size scale was the mean difference and the statistical analysis was performed with Comprehensive Meta-Analysis software (CMA-2).
Results: The results showed that the average size of Cohen's effect in the second wave studies was d= 2.460 and in the third wave studies was d = 2.080 (p <0.01). According to Cohen's interpretation table means the size of the effect is large or high. Also, the results did not show a significant difference between the effect size of second wave studies and third wave studies (p >0.05).
