Testing Constructed Awareness for Complex Trauma and Prolonged Grief: An ABA Design Study

This ABA single-case study tested Constructed Awareness (CA) for treating complex posttraumatic stress disorder (CPTSD) and prolonged grief disorder (PGD) in a single client (n=1). We measured symptom changes using PCL-5 and ICG scales across baseline, treatment, and follow-up phases. Percentage of nonoverlapping data (PND) scores for PCL-5 and ICG ranged from 83.33% to 100%, with significant p values (p < 0.05), suggesting CA’s effectiveness in treating CPTSD and PGD for the participant under study.
