Significant Group × Time interactions were found for Total Ability (F = 45.67, p ² = 0.44), Recognizing VB (p p p ² = 0.08), Cognitive Symptoms (p = 0.024, ηp² = 0.05), and Affective Symptoms (p = 0.007, ηp² = 0.07). Physiological and social symptoms did not show significant interactions. Regression confirmed direct effects of the intervention on Day 17 outcomes for Total Ability, Recognizing VB, Controlling VB, and Behavioral Symptoms (all p p = 0.225). The five-session AT protocol produced robust behavioral improvements. Its modular design supports scalability and task-shifting in resource-limited settings. Integration with emotion-focused approaches may further enhance affective outcomes.
