The acceptability, feasibility and preliminary efficacy of acceptance and commitment therapy for adolescents in the management of overweight or obesity: A scoping review
Overview
This scoping review evaluates the acceptability, feasibility, and preliminary efficacy of acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT) for adolescents aged 11–18 managing overweight or obesity. The authors analyzed six interventions, noting high participant retention but a low overall body of evidence for clinical recommendation. The resource highlights potential benefits in psychological flexibility and self-regulation, aligning with findings from adult populations.
