简要总结
The purpose of this preliminary study is to examine the effects of a guided online acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT) intervention combined with psychoeducation on people with spinal cord injury (SCI) who experience psychological distress.
详细描述
This project will employ a one-group pretest-posttest design to investigate the effects of a guided online acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT) intervention combined with psychoeducation on quality of life and mental health of people with spinal cord injury (SCI) who experience psychological distress. After the pretest evaluation, eligible participants will receive 8 weekly sessions, including 6 ACT sessions and 2 psychoeducation sessions, delivered by trained coaches through Zoom videoconferencing. Each session lasts for one hour. Primary outcome measures will be psychological distress measured by the Depression, Anxiety and Stress Scale (DASS)- 21 and Spinal Cord Injury - Quality of Life (SCI-QOL). A one-time interview at the completion of the 8 sessions will be conducted to explore participants' experiences in the sessions.
