The current study compared the effects of 15-min acceptance-based and cognitive reappraisal-based interventions on experiential avoidance (EA) in socially anxious college students who participated in an experimental public speaking task. Participants were randomly assigned to receive one of the two interventions designed to aid in preparation for a 5-min laboratory-based public speaking task. Results indicated that participants receiving the acceptance-based intervention reported significantly lower levels of EA at the post-public speaking task measurement time, indicating that this brief acceptance-based intervention yielded the proposed mechanism of action in the sample used for this study. These findings highlight the importance of process-based accounts of cognitive-behavioral psychotherapy and shed light on the importance of developing interventions for alleviating social anxiety.
本研究比较了 15 分钟基于接受的干预和基于认知重评的干预对参与实验性公开演讲任务的社交焦虑大学生体验回避(EA)的影响。参与者被随机分配接受两种干预措施之一,旨在帮助准备 5 分钟的实验室基础公开演讲任务。结果表明,接受基于接受的干预的参与者在演讲后任务测量时间报告的 EA 水平显著降低,表明这种简短的基于接受的干预在本研究中使用的样本中产生了预期的作用机制。这些发现强调了认知行为心理治疗基于过程的解释的重要性,并揭示了开发干预措施缓解社交焦虑的重要性。
