简要总结
The goal of this clinical trial is to investigate the effectiveness of Acceptance and Commitment Therapy Based Intervention for Oncology Patients. The main questions it aims to answer are:
- Does the Acceptance and Commitment to Therapy-Based Intervention for Oncology Patients affect the level of psychological distress?
- Does the Acceptance and Commitment to Therapy-Based Intervention for Oncology Patients affect the level of reintegration into normal life?
Researchers will compare Acceptance and Commitment Therapy-Based Intervention for Oncology Patients (ACT) to Psychoeducation for Oncology Patients and routine care (with no specific intervention) to see if Acceptance and Commitment Therapy-Based Intervention for Oncology Patients is effective in psychological distress and reintegration into normal living.

结局指标
主要结局
The Distress Thermometer (DT)
时间窗: one month after the end of the interventions
The scale was developed to measure psychological distress in cancer patients. The problems in the list are grouped into five areas. These are daily life problems, family problems, emotional problems, faith-related problems, and physical problems. The patient marks which one or which areas of the list he/she has experienced problems in the last week. The cut-off point of the scale in our country was found to be 4. The National Comprehensive Cancer Network (NCCN) argues that patients who score 5 or above on the distress thermometer are in significant distress and should be supported by professionals.
次要结局
- Reintegration to Normal Living Index (RNLI)(one month after the end of the interventions)
