Decentering, Acceptance, and Non-Attachment: Challenging the Question “Is It Me?”

Among mindfulness measures the three constructs acceptance, decentering, and non-attachment are psychometrically closely related, despite their apparent semantic differences. These three facets present robust psychometric features and can be considered core themes in most “third wave” clinical model...
