This week, we are going to break down and have a conversation about acceptance and commitment therapy/training. Tarbox et al., wrote a great paper explaining a little bit about ACT and how it fits into the behavior analytic lense. However, such a large topic results in a large paper, so we are going to break this article up into two podcasts. This next part goes into some of the common criticisms of ACT and how ACT is baked into the task list!
