上下文行为科学的最新出版物为使用捕获具体因素和过程的方法扩展干预功效研究提供了理论基础。我们对成人临床人群中接受和承诺疗法(ACT)文献中单例实验设计(SCED)的使用和质量进行了系统评价。系统审查是根据PRISMA指南和NAHL数据库进行的,MEDLINE,PsycINFO,搜索了Psycarticles和OpenGrey以获取同行评审的文章。通过审查所有全文研究的参考列表来寻求进一步的研究。根据WhatWorksClearinghouse(WWC)单案例设计标准对研究进行了评估。26项研究符合资格标准,并在所有实施多基线设计的研究团队中进行。24项研究不符合WWC标准,大多数研究未能确保参与者之间的一定程度的一致性。还捕获了随机化方法的程度。该综述强调了临床人群中ACT文献中SCED的稀疏性和当前的方法学实践。讨论了评论的局限性和对未来研究的启示。
Recent publications within Contextual Behavioral Science provided a rationale for the expansion of intervention efficacy research using methods that capture idiographic factors and processes. We conducted a systematic
review of the use and quality of single-case experimental designs (SCED) within the Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) literature in adult clinical populations. The systematic
review was conducted according to PRISMA guidelines and the databases CINAHL, MEDLINE, PsycINFO, PsycArticles and OpenGrey were searched for peer-reviewed articles. Further studies were sought through
review of reference lists of all full text studies. Studies were assessed against What Works Clearinghouse (WWC) single-case design standards. Twenty-six studies met eligibility criteria and were conducted within research teams all implementing multiple-baseline designs. Twenty-four studies did not meet WWC standards with most failing to ensure a degree of concurrence across participants. The extent of randomisation methods was also captured. The
review highlights the sparsity of SCEDs within ACT literature in clinical populations and current methodological practices. Limitations of the
review and implications for future research are discussed.
