Abstract

Purpose: This case study exemplifies the effectiveness of Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) based intervention in the socially excluded patient. The hypothesis tests the use of the ACT based intervention as the therapeutic programme for indi viduals with a GAD diagnosis and with subthreshold levels of psychopathological symptoms. Case description: A female patient, aged 52, with increased levels of anxiety and depression symptoms, complaining about exces sive worrying, after an initial interview took part in a 12session intervention programme based on ACT. She was examined twice with WAQII, STAI, AAQII ,VLQ and DASS21 questionnaires. The results showed decrease in problematic symptomatology and improvement in psychological flexibility. Comment: The use of an ACTbased intervention can be a useful method in the early stages of mental disorders. Further quanti tative research into the effectiveness of this type of intervention is recommended, including online programs or selfhelp guides.

目的:本案例研究举例说明了基于接受和承诺疗法(ACT)的干预对社会排斥患者的有效性。该假设检验了基于ACT的干预作为广泛性焦虑症诊断和精神病理症状亚阈值水平个体的治疗方案的使用。病例描述:一名女性患者，52岁，焦虑和抑郁症状加重，抱怨过度担忧，在初次面谈后参加了基于ACT的12期干预计划。采用WAQ-II、STAI、AAQ-II、VLQ和DASS-21问卷进行检查。结果显示问题症状的减少和心理灵活性的改善。评论:在精神障碍的早期阶段，使用基于act的干预措施可能是一种有用的方法。建议对这类干预的有效性进行进一步的定量研究，包括在线课程或自助指南。
