Overview

AI-generated summary, not a substitute for reading the source.

This study investigates psychological flexibility processes as mechanisms of change in Acceptance and Commitment Therapy for primary headaches. Using data from a randomized clinical trial with 94 participants, the authors analyze how variables like headache acceptance, cognitive defusion, avoidance, and mindfulness mediate treatment outcomes. The findings suggest that changes in these specific processes contribute to reduced disability and improved quality of life at post-treatment and follow-up.
