Acceptance and Commitment Therapy in stress symptoms in real estate workers / Terapia de Aceptación y Compromiso en síntomas de estrés en trabajadores del sector inmobiliario

Resumen

Introduction: Derived from the COVID-19 pandemic, it is estimated that workers in various business sectors have high levels of stress, with the real estate sector being one of the most affected. Objective: To determine the effectiveness of Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) in stress symptoms control.


Method: A sample (n=10) workers in the real estate sector in Mexico City was studied. A intrasubject design with pretreatment and posttreatment measurements. DASS-21, AAQ-II, and CFQ instruments were used.


Results: The Wilcoxon test was used to analyze the medians of the scores, observing a significant decrease (p=0-005) in the three tests scores.


Conclusions: Despite the promising findings, the sample design and its size do not allow for generalizing the results; however, this intervention can be an alternative within companies in the real estate sector.
