4.5. Study Limitations
In the experimental group, six sessions of the cognitive behavioral model and two sessions based on the resilience model were applied. In contrast, the control group received six sessions of the cognitive behavioral model plus two reinforcement sessions ( completing eight sessions). Although this ensured that the intervention total duration was the same in both groups (i.e., 8 weeks), the exposure to the cognitive behavioral model was not identical between groups since the experimental group had no reinforcement sessions.
