Abstract

Multiple studies have investigated the efficacy of acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT) in improving psychological flexibility among overweight and obese individuals. However, to date, no specific reviews have focused on ACT and weight-related difficulties in this population. This systematic review of the literature aims to identify and assemble all ACT interventions in randomized controlled trials (RCT) that address weight-related difficulties in the treatment of overweight and obese adults. The PRISMA 2020 framework was used for the systematic review, includes manual and computerized database searches. Five databases (Medline, PubMed, Scopus, PsycInfo, and Google) were utilized to gather all articles that: (a) published in English; (b) adopted the RCT design; (c) used ACT as an intervention; (d) included adult participants aged over 18 years with BMI of over 25 kg/m2, and (e) included weight-related difficulties and weight as outcome measures. The review identified seven studies comprising 698 overweight or obese participants of both genders. Improvements were reported in weight-related difficulties and percentage of weight loss in the ACT group and the non-ACT group. The present review supports ACT as an effective intervention that can help adults with weight-related difficulties and excess body weight. Further studies should be conducted in various overweight or obese populations with a more systematic RCT research design to establish the effectiveness of ACT in this area.

接纳与承诺疗法与超重和肥胖成人的体重相关困难:系统回顾
多项研究调查了接纳与承诺疗法(ACT)在改善超重和肥胖者心理灵活性方面的疗效。然而,迄今为止,还没有专门的综述关注 ACT 和这一人群中与体重相关的困难。本系统性文献综述旨在识别和汇总随机对照试验(RCT)中所有针对超重和肥胖成人体重相关困难治疗的 ACT 干预疗法。系统性综述采用了 PRISMA 2020 框架,包括人工和计算机数据库检索。利用五个数据库(Medline、PubMed、Scopus、PsycInfo 和 Google)收集所有符合以下条件的文章:(a) 以英语发表;(b) 采用 RCT 设计;(c) 使用 ACT 作为干预措施;(d) 包括 18 岁以上、体重指数超过 25 kg/m2 的成年参与者;(e) 将体重相关困难和体重作为结果测量指标。审查确定了七项研究,包括 698 名超重或肥胖的男女参与者。据报道,ACT 组和非 ACT 组在体重相关困难和体重减轻百分比方面均有所改善。本综述支持 ACT 作为一种有效的干预措施,可以帮助有体重相关困难和体重超标的成年人。应在各种超重或肥胖人群中开展进一步研究,并采用更系统的 RCT 研究设计,以确定 ACT 在该领域的有效性。
