简要总结
The goal for this clinical trial is to explore the effect of CBT/MCT on the treatment of low self esteem. 20 patients with low self-esteem will be selected and distributed into two either MCT or a CBT
We aim in this study to (1) evaluate the accessibility and effectiveness of MCT and CBT in treating low self-esteem, (2) investigate the patterns of change and the mechanisms of action involved during treatment, and (3) examine the impact of meta-cognitions and neuropsychologial processes in the treatment response and any relapse prevention of low self-esteem.
详细描述
The association between low self-esteem and psychiatric disorders indicates that low self-esteem is an important transdiagnostic construct. People who report having a low self-esteem seem to experience more mental health problems and a reduction in quality of life.
There have been a few trials considering the effect of Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) for low self-esteem, however, there are few randomized controlled studies. Recently, Meta Cognitive Therapy (MCT) has been introduced as a new, specific treatment for MDD, showing promising and lasting results. This treatment approach also has proven more effective than CBT for GAD or worry disorder. So far, no study has examined MCT for low self-esteem in a randomized controlled trial.
For the present clinical trial, 20 patients with low self-esteem will be selected and distributed into two treatment conditions. The first group (n=10) will be treated with MCT, whereas the second group (n = 10) will be treated with CBT. The patients will be assessed with different outcome measures at pre-treatment, at the end of treatment, and at six months follow up. In addition, they will also be assessed weekly using various measures.
