Acceptance and commitment therapy: Applying an iterative translational research strategy in behavior analysis.

Abstract

Acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT; Hayes, Strosahl, & Wilson, 1999) is a behavior-analytic model of intervention and behavior change. ACT is grounded in a post-Skinnerian account of language and cognition, relational frame theory (RFT; Hayes, Barnes-Holmes, & Roche, 2001), that codeveloped with ACT. ACT and RFT are linked to an elaboration and extension of the traditional behavioranalytic model of how best to build and extend psychological knowledge, which we have termed a contextual behavioral science (CBS) approach (Hayes, Levin, Plumb, Boulanger, & Pistorello, in press; Vilardaga, Hayes, Levin, & Muto, 2009). In this chapter, we describe the ACT model and enough of the underlying theoretical underpinnings and scientific strategy to place data on its impact and change process in the proper context. We link CBS to the challenges faced by an inductive approach in translation and system building.

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.

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.
