Article Abstract
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) is a third wave cognitive-behavioral approach with demonstrated effectiveness in treating substance use disorders (SUDs). ACT aims to improve psychological flexibility via 6 core processes: acceptance, cognitive defusion, present-moment awareness, self-as-context, values, and committed action. Through these processes, ACT encourages adaptive and values-congruent behaving rather than substance use as a coping strategy. ACT offers a holistic framework for long-term behavior change and overall well-being, fostering psychological resilience and self-awareness to individuals struggling with SUDs.

Background: Although metacognitive therapy (MCT) and acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT) are grounded in different theoretical frameworks, both target repetitive negative thinking (RNT) processes, such as worry and rumination, and share a focus on fostering psychological flexibility and reducing experiential avoidance. However, no integrated theoretical model currently exists to combine their potential strengths. Recent research highlights the importance of metacognitive beliefs and acceptance-related processes in maintaining maladaptive RNT.

We defined persistent PIRA as ongoing sustained disability over the entire available follow-up period. However, PIRA events can regress over time.
