Overview

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

This paper reviews 44 studies to examine how acceptance and mindfulness-based therapies may work by reducing the link between internal experiences and behavior, a process termed decoupling. The authors identify preliminary evidence for this mechanism across various issues such as substance abuse, depression, and chronic pain, with the strongest support found in substance abuse research. The resource notes that replication studies are currently lacking and calls for more controlled research to test specific hypotheses regarding these effects.
