Results
Prevalence of ALTs and ADHLTs was 23.6 percent. ALTs correlated with lower accomplishment, high depression and anxiety, and lower empathy. ADHLTs correlated with emotional exhaustion. In mediation analyses, values progress showed indirect links between ALTs and outcomes. Cognitive fusion showed indirect links for ADHLTs. Neurodevelopmental traits link to distinct psychological functioning patterns.
