Qualitative study of the acceptability and feasibility of acceptance and commitment therapy for adolescents with chronic fatigue syndrome
Overview
This qualitative study explores the acceptability and feasibility of Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) for adolescents with chronic fatigue syndrome who remain symptomatic after one year. Through interviews with patients, parents, and healthcare professionals, the authors found that participants viewed ACT as acceptable and feasible, citing its pragmatic approach and focus on values as beneficial. The resource also notes barriers to future research, such as reluctance toward randomization and concerns about misinterpreting 'acceptance,' while highlighting the need for individualized timing.
