Effectiveness of Acceptance and Commitment Therapy as a Treatment for Posttraumatic Stress Disorder and Moral Injury
Overview
This paper evaluates an eight-week Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) group intervention designed as a second-line treatment for veterans with PTSD who have previously completed first-line therapy. The study measures changes in PTSD symptoms, valued living, depression, wellbeing, and moral injury at pre-treatment, post-treatment, and one-month follow-up intervals. Results indicate preliminary support for the intervention, with significant improvements observed immediately after treatment, although many gains were not maintained at follow-up.
