Based on the specific criteria set out, it was decided that 12 experimental studies should be included in the meta-analysis. A Comprehensive Meta Analysis statistical program was used to calculate the effect sizes of the studies. As a result of the meta-analysis carried out, it was determined that all of the studies calculated effect sizes have negative effect. In addition, the results of the study revealed that cognitive behavioral group therapies have a large effect size on the treatment of insomnia problem seen in cancer patients (g= -14.405).
