Overview

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

This paper evaluates the reliability and validity of the Dutch 9-item Acceptance and Action Questionnaire (AAQ), a self-report measure for assessing experiential avoidance within the context of Acceptance and Commitment Therapy. The authors report on three studies involving bereaved adults, undergraduate students, and outpatients, demonstrating satisfactory internal consistency, temporal stability, and construct validity. The findings indicate that higher AAQ scores correlate with psychopathology, maladaptive coping, and neuroticism, supporting the measure's incremental validity in predicting depression and anxiety.
