En este artículo se presenta de forma sintética el tipo de intervención que propone la Terapia de Aceptación y Compromiso (ACT). A partir de sus fundamentos epistemológicos y de las investigaciones empíricas a las que se ha sometido, se concreta su práctica clínica y sus áreas de trabajo más comunes; también se ofrecen distintas consideraciones sobre su alcance o utilidad y las dificultades habituales que surgen durante su ejercicio.

In this paper, we present the Spanish adaptation of the Acceptance and Action Questionnaire (AAQ). Hayes et al. (2000) developed the AAQ to assess experiential avoidance and psychological acceptance, two key concepts of the Acceptance and Commitment Therapy. We evaluate its psychometric properties in clinical and nonclinical sample.

(From the cover): Un título como La mente o la vida puede sugerir una dicotomía quizás excesivamente drástica, pues insinúa que ambas cosas (pensar y vivir) son incompatibles. Es cierto que esto no siempre es así, pero, por desgracia, para muchas personas acaba siendo una completa realidad.

Emotional disorder with hallucinations in adolescence. Depression and psychotic behavior was diagnosed in the public mental health system to a 15 years-old girl which could be conceptualized in a functional perspective as affective disorder due to lack of adjustments generated between the repertory of the young girl and the lost of reinforcers and new demands in the change of residence.

The present paper offers a proposal of how the natural bidirectionality and function-altering properties of language or verbal behavior may give rise to the pathogenic verbal contexts proposed within the framework of Acceptance and Commitment Therapy as responsible for Experiential Avoidance Disorder (EAD).

In this paper we present an analytic essay in a functional-contextual conceptualization based on the recent research on verbal behavior, behavior-behavior relations and derivation of psychological functions. Classical conceptualizations are viewed with predictive value although reduced implication for preventing and altering the developmental process of personality.
