This systematic review and meta-analysis evaluates the effectiveness of Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) for reducing depression and anxiety in older adults. The authors analyzed seven articles, finding that ACT had a small but significant effect on depressive symptoms, while its impact on anxiety was not statistically significant. The resource highlights the need for higher-quality studies with larger samples to further assess these treatment effects.
