Terapia de Aceptación y Compromiso para Estudiantes Universitarios: Un Estudio Cualitativo
Contenido principal del artículo
Resumen
Este estudio tiene como objetivo explorar la percepción de los estudiantes de pregrado sobre su participación en una intervención, basada en la terapia de aceptación y compromiso (acceptance and commitment therapy [ACT]), para reducir la inflexibilidad psicológica (IP) y el estrés en los estudiantes de pregrado. En la investigación participaron 21 estudiantes de diferentes carreras, con una edad promedio de 23,4 ± 5,61, de los cuales el 71,4% eran mujeres y el 28,6% hombres. Los datos recolectados en las entrevistas fueron sometidos a análisis de contenido y organizados en cuatro categorías: experiencia en el programa, utilidad, factibilidad y sugerencias y procesos de ACT. Los resultados permitieron identificar que el programa fue una experiencia positiva para los participantes, la intervención fue útil y factible y permitió a los estudiantes desarrollar los requisitos necesarios para enfrentar mejor las adversidades de la vida diaria, sin apartarse de sus valores personales.
