These studies have suggested that the AAQ-II may measure trait negative emotion/neuroticism, which has led some authors to suggest that the studies utilizing the AAQ-II might be reread, changing \"psychological flexibility” or \"experiential avoidance” for \"neuroticism,” \"negative emotion,” or \"distress.” We suggest most of these findings are due to the inconsistent use of the AAQ-II as a measure of psychological flexibility and experiential avoidance instead of psychological inflexibility. Additionally, we analyze the discriminant validity of the Spanish version of the AAQ-II in three Colombian samples. In Study 1, we conducted both exploratory graph analysis (EGA) and exploratory factor analysis (EFA) to determine the number of dimensions in a general online sample (<em>N</em> = 2398) and a treatment-seeking sample (<em>N</em> = 358) that responded to the AAQ-II and the Depression, Anxiety, and Stress Scale – 21 (DASS-21). In Study 2, we conducted the same analyses in a general online sample (<em>N</em> = 444) that responded to the AAQ-II, DASS-21, and the Big Five Inventory – 2 Neuroticism subscale. All analyses indicated that the AAQ-II items pertained to a unique community/factor and strongly supported the discriminant validity of the AAQ-II in Colombian samples. We recommend using the AAQ-II only as a measure of psychological inflexibility and argue that it is too adventurous to suggest the reinterpretation of thousands of studies and discourage journals from publishing articles using the AAQ-II.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":47544,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Contextual Behavioral Science","volume":"34 ","pages":"Article 100854"},"PeriodicalIF":3.4,"publicationDate":"2024-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142721449","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"心理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The hybrid intervention combined web-based modules with peer coaching in a research laboratory setting. This current study aimed to extend those findings by empirically evaluating the theoretical components of the ACT model of psychological flexibility. Participants were 78 college students ranging between 18 and 32 years of age. It was found that the level of changes in awareness, self as context, values, and committed action were significantly different between the intervention and control groups, while psychological inflexibility, acceptance, and cognitive fusion were not. Simple regressions suggested that changes in psychological inflexibility significantly predicted changes in life satisfaction at post-intervention and 3-month follow-up. Whereas, changes in psychological inflexibility predicted changes in psychological distress only at follow-up. Furthermore, penalized regressions suggested awareness and cognitive fusion significantly predicted changes in psychological distress, but did not predict changes in psychological inflexibility or life satisfaction.

These ‘givens’ of existence include death, identity, isolation, meaning, and freedom. From this theoretical perspective, all branches and brands of psychotherapy need to include some procedures to address these issues. Evidence for the importance of these constructs in human experience is presented, followed by evidence for existential therapies themselves. A dearth of quality research trials establishing a strong evidence base for this branch of therapy was noted. Further, process-based research in this area was shown to be weak.
