This study assessed whether an Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and mindfulness-based intervention ameliorated self-report of anxiety and psychological inflexibility, and increased wellbeing and mindfulness skills, in 5 th grade through 11th grade students in the school setting. The intervention was adapted from established mindfulness and ACT protocols (Forsyth & Eifert, 2007; & Saltzman, 2014) and was completed over five one-hour intervention sessions.

520 $a This study assessed whether an Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and mindfulness-based intervention ameliorated self-report of anxiety and psychological inflexibility, and increased wellbeing and mindfulness skills, in 5 th grade through 11th grade students in the school setting. The intervention was adapted from established mindfulness and ACT protocols (Forsyth & Eifert, 2007; & Saltzman, 2014) and was completed over five one-hour intervention sessions.
520 $a A single-subject multiple-baseline design was applied to three groups of eleven total students over eight weeks. Wellbeing was assessed at baseline and weekly during the intervention. Anxiety, psychological inflexibility, and mindfulness skills were assessed at the beginning and end of the study, with a 7-week follow-up to determine retention of skills.
520 $a There appeared to be no measurable treatment effects in wellbeing resulting from the intervention, potentially due to the unstable nature of the mood state assessed, or due to a lack of sensitivity in the measure used. All groups demonstrated holistic improvements in anxiety, and delayed improvements in psychological inflexibility and mindfulness. Older students reported higher baseline anxiety scores but also larger improvements. Younger students reported high intervention satisfaction, and older students reported moderate satisfaction. Students reported that the most useful intervention that they learned was the breathing exercise and the "safe space" mindfulness meditation.
520 $a Study results were not generalizable but do indicate that more research is needed to determine the effectiveness of ACT and mindfulness-based curriculum as a Tier-2 preventive intervention within the school setting to help students with the avoidant behaviors associated with mild to moderate anxiety. Anxiety in adults creates a significant societal burden in terms of healthcare costs and missed productivity due to avoidant behaviors. This study helps inform further research regarding the potentially beneficial aspects of a preventive curriculum to help ameliorate anxiety in children and adolescents before the symptoms worsen in adulthood.
