Abstract:
Acceptance commitment therapy is accepted as a new psychological therapy to provide psychological treatment and rehabilitation for soldiers,to ensure their health level and maintain the combat effectiveness of the army.In this paper,the applications of acceptance commitment therapy in military personnel are reviewed,including improving post-traumatic stress disorders,relieving postoperative or chronic pain,mitigating anxiety and depression,controlling weight,quitting smoking,and controlling alcohol use disorders.Acceptance commitment therapy is highly applicable among soldiers,especially veterans,exceedingly effective among female soldiers with post-traumatic stress disorders and better than other traditional therapies in treating post-traumatic stress disorders combined with substance use disorders or combined with chronic pain.However,traditional therapy is more effective than acceptance commitment therapy in improving sleep.Unfortunately,the number of current studies is small,research is not widely-distributed geographically,and domestic studies are lacking.Multi-center randomized controlled studies with large samples on the basis of foreign studies are needed to verify the applicability of acceptance commitment therapy in Chinese military.
