Cultural Adaptation of ACTaide
ACTaide is currently undergoing a theory-informed cultural adaptation to expand access to Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) across languages and contexts. This work follows an iterative, user-centered process to ensure that translated content maintains clinical fidelity while remaining culturally relevant and accessible.
The first adaptation focuses on French, with the goal of developing a version suitable for diverse French-speaking populations globally. The process includes forward and back translation, expert review by bilingual ACT clinicians, and usability testing with both therapists and end-users.
This work represents an important step toward increasing accessibility to evidence-based psychological interventions across linguistic and cultural contexts.
