Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Changes in psychological flexibility at the end of the "ACT for Health" training, which are recorded using specific questionnaires (Questionnaire for Acceptance and Action II (FAH-II) and Multidimensional Psychological Flexibility Inventory (MPFI)). The surveys take place at baseline, mid-training (4 weeks after the start of training), post-training (1 week after the end of training) and at the follow-up measurement points (5 weeks and 13 weeks after the end of training). | — |
Secondary

| Changes in psychological stress, the ability to regulate emotions, health-related quality of life, psychological resilience and self-compassion at the end of the "ACT for Health" training, which are also measured using specific questionnaires that have proven to be valid and reliable for assessing the constructs (including DASS-21, SEK-27, SF12v2, SCS-SF). The surveys take place at baseline, mid-training (4 weeks after the start of training), post-training (1 week after the end of training) and at the follow-up measurement points (5 weeks and 13 weeks after the end of training). | — |
