Effectiveness of acceptance and commitment therapy for irritable bowel syndrome non-patients: A pilot randomized waiting list controlled trial
Overview
This pilot randomized controlled trial evaluates an acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT) program designed for individuals with irritable bowel syndrome symptoms who have not received a clinical diagnosis. The study involved 26 participants assigned to either a one-day group session combined with a two-month self-help program or a waiting list control group. Researchers assessed changes in symptom severity, quality of life, psychological distress, and psychological flexibility at three intervals. The findings indicate that while the intervention reduced depressive mood, it did not significantly alter IBS symptom severity, suggesting the current protocol may require modification.
