Abstract
This study has been conducted to investigate the efficacy of Narrative Constructive Treatment in Back to the future model on reduction of Acute Stress Disorder (ASD) symptoms. The population of the study were all women with ASD symptoms, which appeared following the exposure to car accident coma of the spouse and their husband hospitalized in ICU ward of Poorsina hospital, in Rasht, during 2013 (from June to August). The sample included three women (n=3), who were selected based on purposeful sampling procedure. These cases were selected using Stanford Acute Stress Reaction Questionnaire (SASRQ). This study was a non-concurrent multiple-baseline (across participants) single-case experimental study. The intervention was conducted based on Narrative Constructive Treatment in Back to the future model. The treatment program was carried out for 13 sixty-minute sessions. In general, the study consisted of three stages including the baseline evaluation, the intervention period, and with a follow-up period of 1.5 and 3 months subsequent to treatment termination. Data were analyzed using the clinical significance (Cohen’s d) method, and findings demonstrated that all subjects who completed the treatment showed significant improvement in their ASD symptoms (d = -1.89), including dissociative (d = -1.78), re-experience (d = -1.82), avoidance (d= -2.08) and marked symptoms of anxiety or increased arousal (d = -1.88). It appears that back to the future model is effective in treating women’s ASD.
