Mobile Acceptance and Commitment Therapy With Distressed First-Generation College Students: Microrandomized Trial
Overview
This paper reports on a microrandomized trial evaluating the safety, feasibility, and effectiveness of a mobile Acceptance and Commitment Therapy intervention for distressed first-generation college students. The study involved 34 participants aged 18 to 19 who completed twice-daily assessments and were randomized to receive an ACT-based intervention or no intervention over six weeks. Results indicated that the intervention was safe and feasible, increased values-based behavior, and reduced depressive symptoms, though it did not significantly affect avoidance behavior or perceived stress.
