This randomized controlled trial evaluates a six-week acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT) smartphone application designed to manage stress among middle managers in Sweden. The study compares outcomes for 36 participants receiving the intervention against 37 individuals in a waitlist control group. Results indicate small to moderate reductions in perceived stress and improvements in general health for the treatment group.
