Patty Bach’s protocol on ACT with schizophrenia
Overview
This resource describes a randomized controlled trial by Patricia Bach and Steven C. Hayes investigating a brief Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) protocol for preventing rehospitalization in psychotic patients. The study involved eighty inpatients assigned to either treatment as usual or four sessions of ACT plus standard care, focusing on acceptance, defusion, and valued action. Results indicated that the ACT group reported higher symptom awareness but lower symptom believability and experienced half the rehospitalization rate of the control group over a four-month period.
