For this purpose, 30 people were selected by targeted sampling method (according to research criteria) and were placed randomly in two experimental and control groups (15 experimental group and 15 control group). The experimental group was trained 8 positive 90-minute sessions of positive psychotherapy. The measuring instrument included a daily checklist of Blanchard's headache (1992).
