Daneshvar S; Shafiei M; Basharpoor S · Journal of interpersonal violence · 2022 · Randomized controlled trial

Original publication · Original publication · Original publication · Original publication

Recorded summary

Experiential avoidance decreased and meaning in life increased; sense of coherence did not significantly improve.

Recorded limitations

Small inactive-control trial; same authors, sample size and dose suggest overlap with the companion report, grouped conservatively pending full-text verification.

method
AI editorial assessment of all 130 publication records: compare identity, headline finding, design, relevance and limitations with indexed abstracts or available primary material; adjudicate retained source-supported methods amendments. This is a source-limited publication audit, not an independent full-text systematic review or a clinical guideline.
limitations

Abstract-only records do not establish allocation concealment, complete harms reporting or full risk of bias. · No formal independent RoB 2, GRADE appraisal or numerical reconstruction of every effect was performed. · Source-access labels describe retained appraisal evidence; fuller prior appraisals were checked through their source ledgers and selected material, not independently repeated in full. · Publication counts are not independent trial or participant counts; cohort links and overlapping review evidence remain provisional. · A randomized design cross does not indicate benefit, low risk of bias or human approval. No double-blind trial is verified in this release. · No professional clinical peer review is claimed. Recommended content is limited to accurately qualified research summaries.

    finding
    Experiential avoidance decreased and meaning in life increased; sense of coherence did not significantly improve.
    limitation
    Small inactive-control trial; same authors, sample size and dose suggest overlap with the companion report, grouped conservatively pending full-text verification.

    assessment Notes

    Bibliographic identity and abstract-level evidence extracted; full-text appraisal remains limited unless explicitly stated. · Study-family label is retained separately from publication identity; this does not prove independence from every unpublished or secondary report. · Conservative provisional linkage by authors, N=42, arm sizes and eight-session intervention; independence not established.

    method
    AI editorial assessment of all 130 publication records: compare identity, headline finding, design, relevance and limitations with indexed abstracts or available primary material; adjudicate retained source-supported methods amendments. This is a source-limited publication audit, not an independent full-text systematic review or a clinical guideline.
    limitations

    Abstract-only records do not establish allocation concealment, complete harms reporting or full risk of bias. · No formal independent RoB 2, GRADE appraisal or numerical reconstruction of every effect was performed. · Source-access labels describe retained appraisal evidence; fuller prior appraisals were checked through their source ledgers and selected material, not independently repeated in full. · Publication counts are not independent trial or participant counts; cohort links and overlapping review evidence remain provisional. · A randomized design cross does not indicate benefit, low risk of bias or human approval. No double-blind trial is verified in this release. · No professional clinical peer review is claimed. Recommended content is limited to accurately qualified research summaries.
