“…A relatively new procedure rooted in RFT principles that combines mindfulness and behavioral-based procedures called acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT) stems from the early 1980s (see Zettle, 2005, for a historical and empirical review). In the past few years, researchers have published studies on acceptance and commitment training (ACTr) for parent training (Corti et al, 2018;Gould, Tarbox, & Coyne, 2018;Hahs, Dixon, & Paliliunas, 2018;Pennefather, Hieneman, Raulston, & Caraway, 2018), gambling (Dixon, Wilson, & Habib, 2016), decreasing impulsivity (Dixon et al, 2019), reducing inflexible behavior (Szabo, 2019), teaching job interview skills (Brazeau et al, 2017), training staff (Castro, Rehfeldt, & Root, 2016;Chancey et al, 2018), and increasing academic performance (Paliliunas, Belisle, & Dixon, 2018). ACT may also help us intervene on critical social issues related to racial bias (Levin et al, 2016;Lillis & Hayes, 2007).…”
