Abstract:
Faced with the COVID-19 pandemic, government and civil society had to pay attention to response teams (1, 2). The disaster psychological care program (APSIDE) begins with Kirk Strosal's first-rate intervention "Focused acceptance and commitment therapy" in a single session. Results: 104 individual interventions. Of the users, 68% experience anger and other emotions, with ineffective regulatory behaviors such as avoidance. Once the intervention is concluded, 60% of users report a utility aimed at effective emotional regulation. Performing the first-rate intervention with an evidence-based strategy should be a rule at any level of attention; but also assessing whether the intervention was useful, allows people to generalize what they have learned or develop strategies during the intervention. Performing this type of work provides evidence on the usefulness of the intervention model.
