“…When seen in the light of radically functional operant classes, verbalizing about one's experiences, self-reflections, hopes, and goals, (and that of others) may be found to be at the heart of many issues. From ToM, to an analysis of the behavioral functions which impact challenging questions about 'who we are' and 'what we want out of life' to name a few (Hayes, Law, Malady, Zhu, & Bai, 2020;Dixon et al, 2020). Evidence to date strongly suggests that deictic framing can be adequately treated as a series of operant classes.…”

“…Cognitive fusion refers to a contextually controlled behavior–behavior relation in which private events (i.e., thoughts and feelings) are responded to as if they are literally true, rather than just as simply more stimuli in a person’s environment. In other words, ACT views cognitive fusion as overly rigid control of behavior by verbal rules (Tarbox et al, 2020 ; see also Dixon et al, 2020 ). From an ACT perspective, when a person takes their thoughts literally, it results in insensitivity to direct contingencies of reinforcement by impeding contact with direct antecedents and consequences of behavior (Hayes, Strosahl, & Wilson, 2012c ).…”

“…In response, applied practitioners have, at times, stretched these broad descriptive functions beyond their reasonable limit rather than learning how to include stimulus equivalence and derived relational responding into a well‐rounded functional analytic account (Hayes et al, in press; Sasso et al, 2001). If a soldier dives on a grenade to save others, it seems grotesque to suggest it is due to “attention.” For behavior analysts to address the complexity of such behavior they will need to learn how to as ask behaviorally sensible questions about values, goals, and committed actions (Dixon et al, in press. ).…”
