Clinical outcomes and outcome predictors of two-year assertive community treatment in Norway: an explorative prospective pre–post study
ACT for two years led to significant positive outcomes with small effect sizes for psychiatric symptoms, functioning, engagement, and community tenure. The outcomes were associated with some potential predictors, and some team-level variance emerged. Positive significant outcomes after two years indicate that larger improvements may be achieved from longer-term treatments by ACT teams.
