Clinical Trial Summary

The acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT) model theoretically fits with treating appearance-related anxiety in individuals with a visible difference. This study examines the effectiveness of an acceptance-based self-help manual for this population.


Clinical Trial Description

Individuals with visible difference commonly experience social anxiety due to appearance-related concerns. There are limited resources to help people with appearance-related distress, so internet-provided self-help interventions may be beneficial. A pilot randomised controlled trial will compare the effectiveness of an acceptance-based self-help intervention to a waitlist control group.

We hypothesise (1) the acceptance-based self-help intervention will significantly increase participants' "psychological flexibility", (2) significantly decrease fear of negative evaluation from others and (3) significantly increase their quality of life, compared to the waitlist control group. Data will be collected at two time points only.

General distress (CORE-10) will be collected pre-intervention only to ensure randomisation has been successful. Should the two groups significantly differ in distress, this will be accounted for in subsequent analyses. ;
