Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) has demonstrated good results in the treatment of chronic pain. Method: This study applies a group ACT therapy for women with fibromyalgia, focusing on therapeutic components, such as acceptance, defusion, and personal values. An experimental design with control group was used; 57 women diagnosed with FM participated in this study (25 in the ACT group and 32 in the control group). The ACT group received five intervention sessions. Psychological symptoms, perceived health, mindfulness, catastrophic thinking, and cognitive fusion were evaluated at pre- and post-treatment and at six-month follow-up. Results: The results showed that the ACT group had significantly better results in mental health, social role and functioning, anxiety, depression, somatization, and obsession-compulsion, less catastrophic thinking, and improved capacity for mindfulness at six-month follow-up. Conclusions: The results are discussed in the light of previous interventions. 000144834 540__ $$9info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess$$aby-nc-nd$$uhttp://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/3.0/es/ 000144834 590__ $$a2.2$$b2024 000144834 592__ $$a0.617$$b2024 000144834 591__ $$aPSYCHOLOGY, CLINICAL$$b78 / 185 = 0.422$$c2024$$dQ2$$eT2 000144834 593__ $$aClinical Psychology$$c2024$$dQ2 000144834 655_4 $$ainfo:eu-repo/semantics/article$$vinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersion 000144834 700__ $$aLópez Ríos, Francisca 000144834 700__ $$aPeña Muñante, Gonzalo 000144834 700__ $$0(orcid)0000-0002-2259-2639$$aOrdóñez-Carrasco, Jorge$$uUniversidad de Zaragoza 000144834 7102_ $$14009$$2620$$aUniversidad de Zaragoza$$bDpto.
