摘要

Prosocial is a systems-level intervention framework that incorporates elements of acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT) with Ostrom’s core design principles (CDPs) guiding effective organizations and collective action (Ostrom, 1990). We evaluated a Prosocial intervention to support teachers and staff in a specialized school. AB analysis supported improvements in group cohesion and values-behavior alignment during the intervention and pre–post analyses showed significant improvements in psychological flexibility and perceived stress of participants. These preliminary outcomes may support future empirical research on Prosocial in educational settings.
