In 30 seconds

This randomized controlled trial evaluated the impact of mentalization-based treatment-P on cognitive emotion regulation and tic symptoms in children with tic disorders. Conducted with 30 children in Mako, Iran, the study found significant improvements in cognitive emotion regulation and reductions in tic severity, with p-values less than 0.001 for both outcomes.

Key findings

  • Mentalization-based group therapy significantly improved cognitive emotion regulation (p < .001).
  • The intervention led to a significant reduction in overall tic severity scores (p < .001).

Why it matters

Improving cognitive emotion regulation and reducing tic symptoms can enhance the quality of life for children with tic disorders. Effective interventions like mentalization-based therapy may provide valuable therapeutic options in clinical practice.
