Overview

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

This randomized controlled trial evaluates acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT) for community-residing patients with persisting psychotic symptoms, comparing it against a befriending control group. The study reports no significant difference in overall mental state between groups, though secondary analyses indicate greater improvement in positive symptoms and hallucination distress for the ACT group at follow-up. The authors conclude that while symptom-specific improvements were observed, the intervention did not significantly alter targeted psychological processes compared to the control condition.
