Filter by:From the last decades, applied approach for the use of augmented reality on clinical and health psychology has grown exponentially. Hence, the present study is aimed to examine the effectiveness of augmented reality for the treatment of borderline personality features in young adults. For the purpose, it is hypothesized that (i) borderline personality features of experimental groups will be reduced in posttest followed by the integration of augmented reality in expressive art therapy (ii) Borderline personality features of experimental group will decrease significantly as compared to control group in the post test followed by the integration of augmented reality in expressive art therapy (iii) Borderline personality feature of self-destruction will be reduced in posttest followed by the integration of augmented reality in expressive art therapy (iv) Borderline personality feature of affect regulation will be reduced in posttest followed by the integration of augmented reality in expressive art therapy and (v) Borderline personality feature of negative self-perception will be reduced in posttest followed by the integration of augmented reality in expressive art therapy. For the present purpose, a total of 20 subjects experiencing symptoms of Borderline personality features will be screened and recruited from the Umeed e Nau clinics of the Institute of Professional Psychology Bahria University Karachi Campus by initial screening of the subjects. Participants will be monitored through pre and post-screening of Borderline Symptoms Checklist assigned to an experimental (treatment group) and control (waiting list) group using convenient sampling. The experimental group will receive the Management plan; which will be comprised of total 14 sessions. The effectiveness of the intervention plan will be measured via quantitative measure (the latest version of SPSS).
The proposed effectiveness study examines differences in treatment outcomes of an observation-based supervision (BOOST) versus supervision as usual (SAU). The study will be implemented within 16 teams delivering FFT services at 11 sites in the California Institute of Mental Health (CIMH) system. The 16 FFT therapist teams will be randomly assigned either to BOOST or SAU. Each team will have 3 therapists who will treat 6 families for a total of 18 families per team. Thus, each condition will include 24 therapists who will treat 144 families. The project will be implemented in four staggered waves to establish a more even rate of data collection and treatment implementation to enhance the feasibility of the study by keeping staffing and project costs more constant across the 5-year project. Each wave will involve 4 FFT teams, 2 receiving BOOST and 2 receiving SAU. Teams will be randomized to supervision conditions. Outcome assessments of parents and adolescents will be conducted at baseline and at 4 months and 16 months after treatment initiation.
