Abstract Background Nursing in psychiatric wards is considered a highly stressful career due to the type of patients and the problem of communicating with them. Finding appropriate solutions to overcome this stress can improve the general health of nurses and improve their quality of work. The aim was to investigate the impact of Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) on the perceived stress (PS) and psychological flexibility (PF) of nurses in psychiatric wards. Methods A total of 70 nurses of Razi Psychiatric Center of Tehran were randomly selected and divided into two experimental and control groups of 35. In addition to routine interventions, the experimental group was provided with eight 2-h sessions of ACT training, whereas the control group only received routine interventions. Prior to the intervention sessions and a month after the last session, demographic information, PS scale, and Acceptance and Action Questionnaire (2nd Edition) were completed in both groups. Results There was a significant difference regarding the PS level (P = 0.002) and PF (P = 0.001) in the control and experimental groups; the experimental group showed lower PS and higher PF. Conclusions ACT can lead to reduced PS and improved PF, which can be considered as a solution to empower nurses working in psychiatric wards.

Ketidaksiapan keluarga terhadap perubahan peran menjadi caregiver, kurangnya pengetahuan terhadap prosedur perawatan, serta beban dan tanggung jawab terhadap perawatan pasien kanker payudara menyebabkan stres pada keluarga. Tujuan dari penelitian ini adalah untuk menganalisis pengaruh Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) terhadap penurunan stres pada family caregiver pasien kanker payudara. Penelitian ini menggunakan pendekatan eksperimen dengan single-subject design pada dua orang subjek penelitian. Sebelum proses terapi, masing-masing subjek diberikan skala perceived stress (PSS-10) untuk mengukur tingkat stres sebelum proses terapi kemudian pada setiap sesi terapi masing-masing subjek diberi skala perceived stress kembali untuk mengukur perubahan tingkat stres pada setiap sesinya. Analisis data menggunakan visual analisis, analisis inferensia untuk uji perbedaan dengan wilcoxon signed rank test, dan Percentage of Non-overlapping Data (PND) untuk mengetahui effect size. Hasil analisis data menunjukkan nilai effect size sebesar 1 (>0,90) yang berarti ACT mampu menurunkan stres kedua subjek dengan kategori efektivitas sedang hingga sangat efektif. Melalui penerapan ACT, family caregiver mampu memaknai situasi stres dengan lebih positif sehingga muncul penerimaan dan komitmen yang baik dalam perannya sebagai caregiver pasien kanker payudara.
