Acceptance and commitment therapy for individuals with depressive and anxiety symptoms following acquired brain injury: A non-concurrent multiple baseline design across four cases
Overview
This study evaluates the effectiveness of Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) for four individuals with acquired brain injury experiencing anxiety and depressive symptoms, using a non-concurrent multiple baseline design. Participants completed questionnaires measuring anxiety, depression, stress, quality of life, and ACT-related processes over a year. The results indicate that three out of four participants experienced significant reductions in anxiety and depressive symptoms, alongside improvements in stress and cognitive fusion, though no changes were observed in psychological flexibility or social participation.
