Abstract
The present investigation examines the effectiveness of the procedures in Promoting the Emergence of Advanced Knowledge: Transformation module using a single case research design. PEAK-T Program 14W was used as a training program designed to improve outcomes on an ACT intervention package which focused on values. A multiple baseline design across subjects was used to determine whether Program 14W was effective in improving knowledge and fluency of ACT values. Results of the present study demonstrated immediate improvement on ACT therapeutic exercises following the training program. Following the intervention, both subjects from the training condition showed significant increases in knowledge of ACT principles and the ability to apply them to therapeutic scenarios presented by the researcher.
