ACT in Practice is a guide for therapists on how to apply Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) in case conceptualization. More than just a set of therapeutic techniques, ACT offers a transdiagnostic approach to mental health and treatment planning. This book introduces ACT’s core principles, explains its hexaflex model (and its dysfunctional counterpart, the "inflexahex"), and demonstrates how to structure case conceptualizations using ACT.

The book also provides an overview of ACT’s impact, a summary of research on case conceptualization, and alternative approaches for therapists with backgrounds in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and other modalities. Exercises throughout help clinicians integrate ACT into their practice effectively.

Designed for use by mental health professionals and graduate students, Committed Action in Practice clearly conceptualizes committed action—an integral aspect of acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT)—and offers a deeper investigation of the first of the six core processes of ACT. The book also provides comprehensive descriptions and insight into the conceptualization, integration, and application of committed action in therapy.

Committed action is an important part of the hexaflex model for acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT)—the other core processes being acceptance, defusion, self-as-context and perspective taking, values clarification, and mindfulness. In practice, committed action happens when clients act in the direction of their identified values, even in the presence of obstacles.

Evidence-Based Educational Methods answers the challenge of the No Child Left Behind Act of 2001 by promoting evidence-based educational methods designed to improve student learning. Behavioral scientists have been refining these instructional methods for decades before the current call for evidence-based education. Precision Teaching, Direct Instruction, Computerized Teaching, Personalized System of Instruction, and other unique applications of behavior analysis are all informed by the scientific principles of learning, have been tested in the laboratory, and are often shown to have significant success in field applications. 

This book details each of these approaches to education based on the principles of behavior analysis. Individuals and agencies responsible for instruction that leaves no child behind will find this compendium an important resource for meeting that challenge, and young educators will greatly benefit from this text, as they will see a blueprint of the evidence-based education systems being planned for the future.
