Overview
This study examines how values-based motivation influences approach behaviors toward feared stimuli compared to arbitrary rewards or no reward, using a contamination anxiety behavioral approach task with 171 participants. The research is published in the Journal of Contextual Behavioral Science and focuses on mechanisms within Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT). It provides empirical data on the role of values in facilitating exposure-related behaviors.
