Intervention
Originally SET was developed as a self-help book which effectiveness has been demonstrated. We developed a Dutch version of SET which can be administered through the Internet. The course takes 4 weeks and about half an hour each day. E-mail contact takes place to assist the participants in accomplishing the course. It is a generic method and it encourages the participants to:
a. determine what matters to them;
b. think less negatively about things that do not matter to them;
c. invest their energy in things that are important to them;
d. accept situations they cannot change.
The intervention will be compared to a waiting list control group.
