In-session data were documented via a paper copy of the ACT Matrix, while out-session data were captured through a mobile application. The training spanned five weekly sessions, followed by a two-week post-study phase with continued data collection. Assessments were conducted at baseline, post-intervention, and during follow-up, focusing on burnout, stress, and psychological flexibility. Results indicated successful increases in the identification of both toward and away moves during sessions. Notably, out-session results showed a significant increase in toward moves for two participants, alongside a consistent decrease in avoidance behaviors, suggesting a sustainable impact of the training beyond the immediate intervention. Psychological flexibility and stress measures improved markedly from baseline to intervention for two participants, while burnout effects were mixed. Participants also rated the training as socially valid.

Although Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) has already gathered significant evidence of effectiveness in various psychological health problems and disorders, its application in the context of couple therapy has not been thoroughly analyzed. A systematic review and meta-analysis were conducted, involving a total of 17 randomized controlled trials (RCTs), examining effectiveness in various areas of couple functioning. The analyses revealed that ACT was more effective than passive control groups for alexithymia, anxiety, communication skills, fertility quality of life, marital intimacy, marital satisfaction, psychological well-being, physical health, and relational social functioning. It did not, however, have any significant effect on marital burnout, marital conflict, or conflict resolution. ACT was also effective in post-traumatic stress disorder, but in a joint intervention with Mindfulness-Based Cognitive Therapy (MBCT). When compared with active controls, ACT was sometimes similar and sometimes inferior in results. For instance, ACT, Integrative Behavioral Couple Therapy (IBCT), and CBCT all increased marital intimacy, but with no significant difference between them (<em>g</em> = −0.26, 95% CI: −0.98, 0.46; I<sup>2</sup> = 0%). ACT, IBCT and Emotionally Focused Couples Therapy (EFCT) also all helped social functioning, and EFCT and ACT both fostered forgiveness. However, CBCT was clearly superior to ACT in improving marital satisfaction (<em>g</em> = −1.23, 95% CI: −1.86, −0.59; I<sup>2</sup> = 0%) and ACT was also beaten out by Schema Therapy for fostering forgiveness. Imago therapy seems to help anxiety more than ACT while ACT helped more with physical health. The RCTs included in the review exhibit a significant series of biases and limitations, which were analyzed in detail. Taking these limitations into account, although ACT can be a promising therapy for some couple difficulties, it still needs to gather more evidence of effectiveness with new, better-controlled studies, carried out in a wider variety of countries and cultures, with well-defined protocols and comparisons with active controls like EFCT, IBCT, and CBCT, all of which have more empirical support.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":47544,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Contextual Behavioral Science","volume":"35 ","pages":"Article 100867"},"PeriodicalIF":3.4,"publicationDate":"2025-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143174505","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"心理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Yet existing interventions for drug use at college poorly address the concurrent dynamic influences of the experiences in earlier developmental periods of young adults and the proximal contextual triggers of college life; both risk factors that can contribute to drug use. To address this, we leveraged system dynamic methods and contextual-behavioural science (CBS) approaches to support the development of interventions focusing at addressin these risk factors.

Analyses revealed 4 NFLs for students with previous drug use, consisting of 13 edges (4 positive, 2 negative, and 4 balancing reinforcing relationships) and 3 NFLs for students with no previous drug use, consisting of 4 positives, one negative, and one balancing relationship.

College students who use drugs need drug-related knowledge about the unpredictable and adverse effects of drugs, presented in a compassionate way and distributed from credible resources (e.g., students’ unions/club). Students with no previous drug use need education about the effects of drugs and awareness of how drugs can devaluate value-based activities (e.g. sports, friendships, social life).

However, no study has examined whether the two constructs reflect distinct aspects of psychological functioning or whether they can be clearly differentiated from mental health symptoms and associated impairment. Adolescence is a key period for the onset of mental health problems, making a better understanding of psychological processes involved in mental health in this age group important. The Difficulties in Emotion Regulation Scale (DERS-16, emotion dysregulation) and the Avoidance and Fusion Questionnaire for Youth (AFQ-Y8, psychological inflexibility) are widely used assessment tools of emotion dysregulation and psychological inflexibility, but critical evaluations of their validity are sparse. Using exploratory and confirmatory factor analysis, we examined the discriminant validity of emotion dysregulation and psychological inflexibility as measured via the DERS-16 and the AFQ-Y8 in a sample of 633 adolescents (M<sub>age</sub> = 16.6 [1.98]). Emotion dysregulation and psychological inflexibility did not demonstrate discriminant validity. Instead, four strongly correlated factors emerged, each comprising a combination of items from both assessment tools: (1) interference stemming from distressing thoughts and emotions, (2) negative self-evaluation, (3) loss of control when emotional, and (4) confusion about one's emotions. These factors were strongly correlated and adequately captured by an overarching factor, which we termed the X factor, which in turn was very strongly correlated with core symptoms of anxiety and depression and functional impairment stemming from mental health issues. In conclusion, the constructs of emotion dysregulation and psychological inflexibility, as assessed by the DERS-16 and AFQ-Y8, do not show discriminant validity in adolescents. Furthermore, the constructs measured by these tools are almost empirically indistinguishable from anxiety, depression, and functional impairment.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":47544,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Contextual Behavioral Science","volume":"34 ","pages":"Article 100847"},"PeriodicalIF":3.4,"publicationDate":"2024-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142572884","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"心理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
