¿Aceptación o control mental? Terapias de aceptación y mindfulness frente a las técnicas cognitivo-conductuales para la eliminación de pensamientos instrusos
Durante décadas los psicólogos clínicos han desarrollado procedimientos para extinguir, disminuir y/o cambiar los pensamientos intrusos (por ejemplo, la parada de pensamiento, la distracción o la reestructuración cognitiva). Sin embargo, hoy en día estas técnicas han sido cuestionadas tanto desde la investigación básica (experimentos sobre supresión de pensamiento) como desde el campo clínico aplicado.
Measuring Adolescents' Smoking-related Social Identity Preferences with the Implicit Relational Assessment Procedure (IRAP) for the First Time: A Starting Point that Explains Later IRAP Evolutions
This preliminary study is the first to illustrate the conceptual rationale for, and methodological
potential of, an Implicit Relational Assessment Procedure designed to measure adolescents’
smoking-related social identity preferences (SIP-IRAP). Even with a small sample comprising
of eight adolescent smokers and eight nonsmokers, the IRAP data tentatively suggested that

Functional Contextualism: A radically behaviorist and pragmatic proposal to predict and control private events (in Spanish but easy to translate)
The original title is: “Una propuesta radicalmente conductista y pragmática para predecir y controlar los eventos privados”. This is the ppt (in Spanish) that I made and used to give an introductory 3-hours class about Functional Contextualism (April 23rd) as part of the training in third-wave behavior therapies organized for Juan Pablo Colletti in Buenos Aires - Argentina (2012). The presentation doesn't have many words so it's not so hard to translate it if you are interested in using it. Anyway, I'll try to do it soon.

El viaje al ahora. Una guía sencilla para llevar la atención plena a nuestro día a día
Vivir con atención plena consiste en mantener la actitud de estar en contacto con el mundo, abierto a lo que se experimenta en cada instante, dirigiendo la atención de forma consciente a lo que se hace en cada momento, y llevarlo a cabo de forma similar a la de un niño que contempla por primera vez un espectáculo sorprendente, sin juzgarlo, valorarlo, cuestionarlo, criticarlo… sin compararlo con vivencias del pasado, sin preocuparse por lo que suceder&…
"Mental control" from a third-wave behavior therapy perspective
Most third-wave behavior therapies and, more specifically, Behavioral Activation (BA), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Mindfulness-Based Cognitive Therapy (MBCT) and Dialectic Behavior Therapy (DBT), have proposed alternatives for intervention for intrusive thoughts, painful memories, unpleasant daydreams or ruminative depressive discourses.
Avoidance and Activation as Keys to Depression: Adaptation of the BADS
In this paper we present the adaptation of the Behavioral Activation for Depression Scale (BADS), developed by Kanter, Mulick, Busch, Berlin, and Martell (2007), in a Spanish sample. The psychometric properties were tested in a sample of 263 participants (124 clinical and 139 non-clinical). The results show that, just as in the original English version, the Spanish BADS is a valid and internally consistent scale.
A relational frame analysis of defusion interactions in Acceptance and Commitment Therapy

Two protocols were compared. Defusion I protocol was built with deictic framing trials while Defusion II protocol added hierarchical framing plus the function of regulating one’s own behavior.
