Indicated Stress Prevention Addressing Adolescents with High Stress Levels Based on Principles of Acceptance and Commitment Therapy: A Randomized Controlled Trial
Overview
This randomized controlled trial evaluates an eight-session group intervention for adolescents aged 13–18 with elevated stress levels, combining Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) with CBT elements and art therapy. The study compares the intervention against a waitlist control using multimodal assessments to measure changes in perceived stress, school burnout, and physical symptoms. Results indicate that the ACT-based group reported significantly lower stress levels immediately post-treatment compared to the control group.
