Overview

AI-generated summary, not a substitute for reading the source.

This systematic review synthesizes interventional studies on psychotherapies for Hwa-Byung, a Korean culture-bound syndrome, covering nine studies published through July 2023. It evaluates the effectiveness of various modalities, including acceptance and commitment therapy and art therapy, noting that most significantly improved symptoms compared to waitlist or pre-intervention baselines. The resource highlights methodological limitations in existing research, such as a lack of appropriate control groups, which restricts the strength of the evidence.
