The Relationship between Psychological Flexibility, Mindfulness, and Goal-Directed Behaviors Controlled by Executive Function

Ashe, Sarah Cheyanne 01 May 2018 (has links)
The purpose of the present study is to examine the relationship among psychological flexibility, mindfulness, and goal-directed behaviors controlled by executive function, as measured by the Avoidance and Fusion Questionnaire for Youth (AFQ-Y), the Child and Adolescent Mindfulness Measure (CAMM), and the Comprehensive Executive Function Inventory (CEFI). Participants completed the AFQ-Y, CAMM, and CEFI as part of a Midwestern alternative school’s curriculum. Data was collected for 30 participants (male = 28, female = 2) with approval from the school. The results indicate a significant relationship between the AFQ-Y and CAMM (r = -0.7711, p < 0.0001), CAMM and CEFI (r = -0.3226; p = 0.0821), AFQ-Y and the emotion regulation subscale (r = -0.5018; p = 0.0047), as well as the working memory subscale of the CEFI (r = -0.3622; p = 0.0492), and the CAMM and the emotion regulation subscale (r = 0.494; p = 0.0055), organization subscale (r = 0.3723; p = 0.0427), and working memory subscale (r = 0.4725; p = 0.0084). The results are beneficial for clinicians who specialize in providing treatment to children and adolescents with development disabilities and various other disorders. Limitations and future research are also discussed within the current study.

Psykometriska egenskaper hos Avoidance and Fusion Questionnaire for Youth

Ahlesten, Richard January 2016 (has links)
Psykologisk inflexibilitet är ett centralt begrepp inom Acceptance and committment therapy (ACT). I enlighet med teorin bakom ACT är människor psykiska lidande starkt sammankopplat med komponenterna som utgör psykologisk inflexibilitet; upplevelsemässigt undvikande och kognitiv fusion. Det psykiska måendet bland barn och ungdomar tenderar att försämras och behovet av psykologiska vårdinsatser ökar. I det sammanhanget är det viktigt med fungerande skattningsinstrument som möjliggör bedömningar och utvärderingar av vårdbehov och vårdinsatser. I uppsatsen undersöktes psykometriska egenskaper hos självskattningsinstrumentet Avoidance and Fusion Questionnaire for Youth (AFQ-Y) i en grupp ungdomar som vårdas av Statens institutionsstyrelse. Av resultaten framgick att såväl reliabilitet som validitet var god i de utvalda måtten, faktorstrukturen tolkades som endimensionell. Även graden av psykologisk inflexibilitet i gruppen undersöktes. Bland undersökningsdeltagarna hade flickorna signifikant högre AFQ-Y-resultat jämfört med normpopulationen. Pojkarna avvek inte från normpopulationen.
