Changes in proposed mechanisms of action during an acceptance-based behavior therapy for generalized anxiety disorder
Open accessAbstract
Based on the theory that generalized anxiety disorder (GAD) is maintained through a reactive and fused relationship with one's internal experiences and a tendency towards experiential avoidance and behavioral restriction, an acceptance-based behavior therapy (ABBT) was developed to specifically target these elements. Since ABBT has been shown to be an efficacious treatment in previous studies, the current study focuses on proposed mechanisms of change over the course of therapy. Specifically, the current study focuses on session-by-session changes in two proposed mechanisms of change: acceptance of internal experiences and engagement in meaningful activities. Overall, clients receiving ABBT reported an increase in the amount of time spent accepting internal experiences and engaging in valued activities. Change in both acceptance and engagement in meaningful activities was related to responder status at post-treatment and change in these two proposed mechanisms predicted outcome above and beyond change in worry. In addition, change in acceptance was related to reported quality of life at post-treatment. © 2009 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

The Quality of Life results report that individuals with GAD rated their quality of life lower than nonanxious controls. In the verbatim citing sentence, the suggestion that living less consistently with one's values may explain this is the citing authors' own interpretation, not a finding attributed to this source.

“These secondary analyses of data from both the open and randomized controlled trials of ABBT are promising in that the treatment seems to decrease the distress and avoidance associated with GAD, a chronic and treatment resistant condition.”

The authors state this as an assumption.
The problematic aspect of internal experiences is not the initial worry, feeling, physical sensation, or image itself, but the rigid unwillingness to have these experiences.
“An assumption underlying ABBT is that it is not the initial worry, feeling, physical sensation, or image that is problematic, but rather the rigid unwillingness to have these internal experiences.”
The paper relies on this without support.
Single-item measures typically have lower reliability and validity than multi-item measures.
“For example, single item measures typically have lower reliability and validity than multi-item measures.”

The single-item measures and the longer measures are intended to measure slightly different constructs.

In ABBT, the primary aim is not necessarily to reduce worry, but to change the relationship one has with worries or other internal experiences.
“In ABBT, the primary aim is not necessarily to reduce worry, but to change the relationship one has with the worries or other internal experiences”

ABBT focuses on finding ways to move forward with meaningful activities regardless of whether worry is present.

Movement towards engagement in valued actions is aided by and also encourages greater acceptance of one’s internal experiences.
“This movement towards engagement in valued actions is aided by and also encourages a greater acceptance of one’s internal experiences.”

In ABBT, sessions one to seven are primarily psychoeducational, and the remaining sessions focus on practicing and implementing mindfulness and valued action practice in everyday life.

Statistics that don’t add up
Each reported p-value recomputed from its test statistic and degrees of freedom.
Rated minor: it would not touch a result — a value no result rests on, a p-value that stays on the same side of the significance level, or a conflict that is clerical, resolved elsewhere in the paper, or outside its own findings.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
A language model drew the claims from the paper on 2026-09-28, under version 3 of the claim definition (prompt extract-v3).
A second model labelled each claim on 2026-09-28 (model jev-1.13-20260917, definition revision gold-guideline-v0.2).
Cited sources are checked with a language model’s help (gpt-6-sol).
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
