Effects of an Online Acceptance and Commitment Therapy Intervention on Children’s Quality of Life
2022
AbstractThe present study examined if an Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT)–based online intervention for parents had indirect effects on their children’s quality of life mediated by changes in parental well-being, psychological flexibility and mindfulness skills. Participants were 74 adults, who either received an ACT-based guided online intervention or were allocated to the wait list control group, and their children (n = 66) who had type 1 diabetes or functional disabilities.

Hyvää elämää ja tietoista painonhallintaa : hyväksymis-ja omistautumisterapiaan pohjautuvan painonhallintaohjelman toimivuus ja hyväksyttävyys
2017
Tausta: Ylipainon hoidossa käytetään useimmiten kognitiiviseen rajoittamiseen pohjautuvia menetelmiä, joilla kuitenkin saavutetaan vain harvoin pysyviä tuloksia. On havaittu, että painonhallinnan onnistumista voivat selittää syömiskäyttäytymisen taustalla olevat psykologiset tekijät, kuten psykologinen joustavuus, jota hyväksymis- ja omistautumisterapiassa pyritään lisäämään. Alustavat tutkimukset ovat antaneet kannustavia tuloksia hyväksymis- ja omistautumisterapiaa ja elintapaohjausta yhdistävien interventioiden toimivuudesta ainakin keskipitkän välin painonhallinnassa. Tavoitteet: Tutkimuksen tavoitteena oli tutkia hyväksymis- ja omistautumisterapiaa ja elintapaohjausta yhdistävän lyhyti…

The post-assessment was conducted seven weeks after the pre-measurement. Using data from 53 participants, an evaluation indicated that statistically and clinically significant reductions in symptoms were observed, and the workshop was well received. Regressi…

Customer-based brand equity building
2016
The marketing literature suggested that customers are adding incremental value to a product by its brand, conceptualizing this phenomenon in terms of brand equity. This article is a contribution to this area of study as it provides a new understanding of the process of brand equity building, when approached from the customer point of view. The empirical research is centred on the hospitality industry, more specifically, upscale (i.e. four- and five-star) hotels in Croatia. The data were collected from 475 guests in 24 upscale hotels. The results reveal that image and loyalty exert a direct impact on the overall brand equity, while the influence of trust and affective commitment is mediated…
