Introduction: In order to achieve the development of health in the world, the role of women should be paid attention to, especially during youth and pregnancy. Therefore, the current research was conducted with the aim of comparing self-compassion, acceptance and action and perceived stress in pregnant and non-pregnant women aged 18 to 30 in Qom city.
Methods: The present research method was descriptive-comparative. The statistical population included all pregnant and non-pregnant women aged 18-30 who lived in Qom city in 2022. The research sample consisted of 185 people who were selected by the convenience method. Data collection instruments included demographic questionnaire, "Self-Compassion Scale", "Acceptance and Action Questionnaire-II" and "Perceived Stress Scale". The validity of the tools was limited to previous researches. The reliability of the instruments was measured by internal consistency method by calculating Cronbach's alpha coefficient. Data collection was done from clients present in the clinics and offices of obstetricians and gynecologists in Qom city. The obtained data were analyzed in SPSS. 26.
Results: The results of multivariate analysis of variance and t-test showed that there is no significant difference between self-compassion and acceptance and action of pregnant and non-pregnant women, but there is a difference between the perceived stress of pregnant and non-pregnant women in the subscale of positive perception of tension. It is significant at the error level of 0.05.
Conclusions: The positive perception of tension in pregnant women is more than that of non-pregnant women. Therefore, therapists and counselors are suggested to conduct training courses to increase the positive perception of tension for young non-pregnant women.
