Effectiveness of the acceptance and commitment therapy for resilience promotion in a non-clinical sample: A randomized controlled and a pilot study.
Trial report in BMC psychology, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
backgroundThis research investigates the efficacy of Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) in fostering resilience among non-clinical adolescents. The prevailing socio-economic and psychological challenges have notably affected vulnerable demographics, particularly adolescents, thereby underscoring the importance of resilience for mental health.
methodsThis randomized controlled pilot study, carried out in Istanbul, sought to assess the effects of ACT interventions on resilience, self-compassion, and psychological flexibility in high school students. A total of 89 participants were assigned to either the ACT intervention group or a control group, with the intervention comprising six weekly sessions that emphasized key ACT principles, including mindfulness, emotional regulation, and self-compassion.
resultsUtilizing the Connor-Davidson Resilience Scale, Self-Compassion Scale, and Avoidance and Fusion Questionnaire, the findings indicated significant enhancements in resilience and self-compassion, alongside a decrease in psychological inflexibility within the ACT intervention group compared to the control group.
conclusionThis pilot study provides preliminary evidence that ACT may be a promising approach for enhancing psychological resilience and self-compassion among adolescents. However, given the small sample size and baseline differences between groups, these findings should be interpreted with caution and warrant further investigation with larger, more diverse populations.
