Clinical Trial Summary

The aim of this study is to develop a post-earthquake, trauma-focused Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT)-based psychosocial intervention program (DeST-ACT) and to examine its effectiveness, feasibility, and acceptability of this program in enhancing life satisfaction and psychological flexibility in individuals exposed to earthquake trauma. In this regard, the main hypothesis is that the DeST-ACT psychosocial intervention program is effective, feasible, and acceptable among individuals exposed to earthquake trauma, including both primary and secondary outcomes of the program.


Clinical Trial Description

This quantitative, randomized controlled trial involves two groups and includes a pre-test and repeated post-tests. The study aims to assess the effectiveness, feasibility, and acceptability of the developed DeST-ACT program in addressing post-traumatic stress disorder, psychological flexibility, life satisfaction, values-based living, and depression-anxiety-stress levels in individuals affected by the February 6, 2023 earthquake. Participants will be randomly assigned to experimental and control groups in a 1:1 ratio using an internet-based block randomization program. The DeST-ACT psychosocial intervention program consists of a 4-session online intervention supported by self-help materials. Each session in the 4-week program is held once a week for 50 minutes. The main hypotheses are: - The intervention group will demonstrate a significant decrease in Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) and depression-anxiety-stress levels compared to the control group. - The intervention group will experience a greater increase in values-based living, life satisfaction, and psychological flexibility over time compared to the control group. - The intervention group will demonstrate a significant decrease in PTSD and depression-anxiety-stress levels compared to baseline measures. - The intervention group will experience a greater increase in values-based living, life satisfaction, and psychological flexibility over time compared to baseline measures. ;
