“…Students with high levels of psychological flexibility are less likely to conceptualize or experience stereotypes of vocational student identity, less likely to develop a state of avoidance when perceiving external discrimination, and more willing to accept the present situation and take positive action to do something more meaningful. Psychological flexibility is a core component of ACT and is a skill that can be developed through intervention ( Harris and Samuel, 2020 ). Therefore, ACT should be incorporated into the career planning curriculum for higher vocational students to enhance psychological flexibility and promote active career exploration.…”

Explore the influence mechanism of discrimination perception on higher vocational Students’ career exploration, it provides empirical evidence for promoting vocational college Students’ career exploration and career development. Using the questionnaire survey method, 893 higher vocational students from four higher vocational colleges in Jiangsu Province were investigated by using the Discrimination Perception Scale, the Core Self-Evaluation Scale (CSES), the Chinese version of the Acceptance and Action Questionnaire, the Chinese version of the Cognitive Fusion Questionnaire (CFQ) and the Career Exploration Scale (CES). The data were analyzed using SPSS26.0 and Amos23.0, and the results showed that discrimination perception was significantly negatively correlated with core self-evaluation, psychological flexibility and career exploration (r = −0.487, −0.497, −0.326, p < 0.01), core self-evaluation was significantly positively correlated with psychological flexibility and career exploration (r = 0.518, 0.352, p < 0.01), and psychological flexibility was significantly positively correlated with career exploration (r = 0.386, p < 0.01); Core self-evaluation and psychological flexibility mediated the effect between discrimination perception and career exploration with effect sizes of −0.054 and −0.061, respectively; Core self-evaluation and psychological flexibility mediated the chain effect between discrimination perception and career exploration of higher vocational students with effect sizes of −0.030. Therefore, discrimination perception not only directly influences career exploration of higher vocational students, but also indirectly influences career exploration of higher vocational students through the separate mediating effects of core self-evaluation and psychological flexibility and the chain mediating effects of core self-evaluation and psychological flexibility. Accordingly, the following suggestions are put forward, which should pay attention to the cultivation of core self-evaluation and psychological flexibility of higher vocational students, strengthen the teaching quality and improve the image of vocational colleges.

“…Harris and Samuel analyzed the relevant literature on ACT interventions in adolescent mental health. They found that ACT contributes to addressing adolescent mental health problems; however, more insight is needed to the progress and changes of action to determine the role of ACT in increasing psychological flexibility ( Harris and Samuel, 2020 ). Given this recent call to action, it is necessary to continue and expand ACT research.…”

PurposeAs acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT) becomes mainstream and a growing body of literature emerges, it is critical to map the global collaborative network and a quantitative and systematic assessment of ACT, as research on this topic is still lacking. This review aims to provide a comprehensive understanding of the trajectory, key themes, and future prospects in ACT research.MethodsPublications were extracted from the Web of Science Core Collection before 2022. Excel 2019, VOSviewer, and CiteSpace software were used to analyze the characteristics and trends of ACT research. Examples include publications trend analysis, authors’ cooperation network analysis, keywords co-occurrence analysis, and citation burst analysis.ResultsA total of 799 articles in 314 journals contributed by 2,862 authors from 958 institutions in 52 countries were identified. The number of publications has increased significantly since 2015. The United States/Utah State University is the most productive country/institution; Karolinska Institute, Utah State University, and King’s College of London are the most significant nodes. Twohig M.P., Hayes S.C., and Levin M.E. are the most influential authors. Keyword co-occurrence analysis found the curative mechanisms, using network technology or mobile technology as adjuvant therapy, reducing psychological diseases of cancer patients were potential trends.ConclusionThis review is the first attempt of its kind to systematically examine the knowledge structure and draw an evidence map of ACT research. It deepens the understanding of existing research, gives many operable research directions and suggests to future ACT research.

“…IPT is less studied than CBT but shows promising results for anxiety disorders (although with no superiority compared to other bona fide therapies) (Markowitz et al, 2014). Other treatment approaches such as psychodynamic psychotherapy, acceptance and commitment therapy, or mindfulness have also been used for anxiety and depressive disorders Chi et al, 2018;González-Valero et al, 2019;Harris and Samuel, 2020;.…”
