In this context, prevention is considered to be the most effective approach. In this regard, third-generation therapies provide a novel and integrative theoretical framework for developing effective prevention strategies.<\/p>\n<p>Therefore, it is necessary to develop instruments to assess the psychological variables relevant to this field (such as acceptance of unpleasant sensations and emotions, cognitive defusion, self-compassion, personal values, etc.) in order to analyse the main psychological variables that may be associated with overweight and obesity.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/section>\n<p><!-- GRADO DE DESARROLLO --><\/p>\n<section style=\"margin-bottom: 2rem\">\n<h3 style=\"background-color: #a6192e;color: #fff;padding: 0.5rem 1rem;border-radius: 4px 4px 0 0;font-size: 1.1rem\">DEVELOPMENT STAGE<\/h3>\n<div style=\"border-left: 4px solid #B6A19E;padding-left: 1rem;background-color: #f9f9f9;padding: 1rem\">\n<p>Maturity Level: Advanced.
