The effectiveness of acceptance and commitment therapy for social anxiety disorder: a randomized clinical trial
Overview
This randomized clinical trial investigates the effectiveness of Acceptance and Commitment Therapy for students diagnosed with social anxiety disorder. The study compares outcomes between an experimental group receiving twelve therapy sessions and a control group on a waiting list, measuring changes in external shame, emotion regulation, psychological flexibility, and self-compassion. Results indicate that the intervention significantly reduced anxiety and shame while increasing psychological flexibility and self-compassion from post-test to follow-up.
