The study was conducted with 26 university students. 26 participants were equally assigned to research groups (experimental n=13, control n=13). An 8-week psychoeducation program was implemented. In the current study, a pretest-posttest control group design was used. The Turkish version of The Brief Fear of Negative Evaluation Scale (BFNE) was administered to experimental and control groups three times (pretest, posttest, and follow-up). According to the findings, group*time effect was found to be significant for fear of negative evaluation. The data revealed that being in different experimental conditions affects students' pre-test, post-test, and follow-up test scores differently. It was found that the ACT-based psychoeducation program has a significant effect in reducing fear of negative evaluation scores. © Common Ground Research Networks, Lindsay Asquith, Sumati Ahuja, All Rights Reserved.eninfo:eu-repo/semantics/closedAccessAcceptance and CommitmentFear of Negative EvaluationPsychoeducationTherapyArticle11601001102-s2.0-85110623306Q4
