Key Points
- Defusion is defined as the process of creating non-literal contexts in which language can be seen as simply an active ongoing process that has a conditioning history and is present in the current moment.
- The ACT model attempts to undermine unhelpful language processes, aiming to change how people relate to what they are thinking.
- There are two components to language that we address with defusion: automaticity and power of language.
