| Sumario: | This paper seeks to approach the study and intervention of Emotional Dependence (ED) from a contextual approach with emphasis on the Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), due to the frequency of the problem, and in turn, the little attention received, especially from contextual approaches. The existing literature from different approaches was reviewed to have a broader understanding of the definition of the problem, characteristics of people with emotional dependence and their partners, possible causes and maintainers, proposals for contextual intervention, principles of ACT and studies on group interventions. A six-session group intervention was carried out where the six processes of psychological flexibility were worked on. The findings indicated that there are no statistically significant differences between the experimental group and the control group nor at the intergroup level since in all comparisons of average scores a level of significance p> .05 was obtained. This can be explained by the size of the sample, since due to this the decision was made to use nonparametic tests despite the fact that in the Shapiro-Wilks normality test it was identified that the scores of the variables follow a normal distribution. Finally, the descriptive analysis carried out does show differences which supports this hypothesis. The protocol designed and applied to intervene ED from ACT requires to be evaluated in larger populations that allow to determine its effectiveness and this first approach constitutes an important first contribution for this. |
