“…In a case study of ACT for treatment-resistant PTSD, Twohig (2009) found that values interventions were not tolerated until 6 sessions of acceptance, cognitive defusion, and self-as-context interventions (roughly equivalent to the current ACT OPEN module) were completed. Similarly, improvements in the FFMQ facets of nonjudgment and nonreactivity to inner experiences explained 19–24% of the variance in depression and PTSD outcomes in a residential CBT treatment for PTSD (Boden et al, 2012). In the current study, clients with PTSD in the ACT ENGAGED condition were the only study participants who did not show improvements on these measures.…”

A modular, transdiagnostic approach to treatment design and implementation may increase the public health impact of evidence-based psychosocial interventions. Such an approach relies on algorithms for selecting and implementing treatment components intended to have a specific therapeutic effect, yet there is little evidence for how components function independent of their treatment packages when employed in clinical service settings. This study aimed to demonstrate the specificity of treatment effects for two components of Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), a promising candidate for modularization. A randomized, nonconcurrent, multiple-baseline across participants design was used to examine component effects on treatment processes and outcomes in 15 adults seeking mental health treatment. The ACT OPEN module targeted acceptance and cognitive defusion; the ACT ENGAGED module targeted values-based activation and persistence. According to Tau- U analyses, both modules produced significant improvements in psychiatric symptoms, quality of life, and targeted therapeutic processes. ACT ENGAGED demonstrated greater improvements in quality of life and values-based activation. ACT OPEN showed greater improvements in symptom severity, acceptance, and defusion. Both modules improved awareness and non-reactivity, which were mutually targeted, though using distinct intervention procedures. Both interventions demonstrated high treatment acceptability, completion, and patient satisfaction. Treatment effects were maintained at 3-month follow up. ACT components should be considered for inclusion in a modular approach to implementing evidence-based psychosocial interventions for adults.

“…For example, self-reported dispositional mindfulness has been found to be inversely associated with PTSD symptoms in college students (Thompson et al, 2011). In addition, many researchers found that dispositional mindfulness was a predictive factor of mental health problems (Boden et al, 2012; Boughner, Thornley, Kharlas, & Frewen, 2016; Hagen, Lien, Hauff, & Heir, 2016; Smith et al, 2011; Thompson & Waltz, 2010). …”

Background: Previous studies have shown that parental attachment is associated with low severity of posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) and low academic burnout in individuals who have experienced traumatic events. Objective: The present study investigated the ways in which parental attachment is related to PTSD symptoms and academic burnout in Chinese traumatized adolescents by considering the role of dispositional mindfulness. Method: A total of 443 Chinese adolescents who had experienced a severe tornado one year prior to this study completed measures of parental attachment, dispositional mindfulness, PTSD and academic burnout. Results: The results showed that our model fitted the data well [χ2/df = 2.968, CFI = 0.971, TLI = 0.955, RMSEA (90% CI) = 0.067 (0.052–0.082)] and revealed that dispositional mindfulness partially mediates the relationship between parental attachment, PTSD severity and academic burnout. Conclusions: The findings suggested that dispositional mindfulness and parental attachment may be two critical resources in dealing with traumatization and academic burnout.

“…The most significant limitation is a distinct lack of cultural and ethnic variability. The vast majority of studies published in the last decade were in predominantly male, European American veteran populations (Bernstein et al, 2011;Boden et al, 2012;Jahn et al, 2012;Kearney et al, 2012;Kearney, Malte, et al, 2013;Kearney, McDermott, et al, 2013;Vujanovic et al, 2009;).…”

“…Another limitation noted is that the majority of studies reviewed were pilot and feasibility studies with small sample sizes, a fact noted by several study authors (Boden et al, 2012;Goldsmith et al, 2014;Jahn et al, 2012;Kimbrough, Magyari, Langenberg, Chesney, & Berman, 2010;King et al, 2013). A small sample can limit statistical power, reducing, or enlarging, possible effect sizes and detracting from external validity.…”

“…The most common limitation noted in this subset of studies is a reliance on selfreport measures of both mindfulness and PTSD symptoms (Boden et al, 2012;Carlson, Silva, Langley, & Johnson, 2013;Jahn et al, 2012;Kearney et al, 2012;Kearney, McDermott, et al, 2013;Michal et al, 2007;Smith et al, 2011;Thompson & Waltz, 2010;Vujanovic et al, 2009;). A common criticism of mindfulness research is the lack of gold-standard measurement tools (Paul Grossman, 2011).…”
