Abstract

目的:旨在追踪比较接受与承诺疗法(ACT)与认知行为疗法(CBT)对于抑郁的干预效果。方法:选取27名高抑郁且高穷思竭虑大学生进行为期6周的团体干预,CBT组14人(8男,6女),ACT组13人(4男,9女),分3个时间点(干预前1周、干预结束当天、干预后9周)追踪测量被试的抑郁与穷思竭虑。结果:数据分析采用多元多层线性模型,固定效应结果显示,ACT组抑郁与穷思竭虑均呈持续下降趋势,而CBT组仅有抑郁下降趋势显著;随机效应结果显示,ACT组抑郁与穷思竭虑的斜率呈正相关,而CBT组二者斜率呈负相关。结论:CBT不能有效缓解抑郁个体的穷思竭虑,因而干预抑郁的即时效果显著但长期效果可能欠缺;ACT干预抑郁的即时与长期效果都很显著。
