Despite its evergrowing use in health-related areas, procedures characterized as meditation have been little or not at all defined operationally, which hinders its use in a standardized manner. In the present study, the authors present a possible operational definition of meditation, which has been used in social and academic projects, developed in Universidade Federal de São Paulo. In this proposal, it is emphasized that, in order to be characterized as meditation, the procedure should encompass the following requirements: (1) the use of a specific technique (clearly defined), (2) muscle relaxation in some moment of the process and (3) "logic relaxation"; (4) it must necessarily be a self-induced state, and (5) use of "self-focus" skill (coined "anchor").
尽管冥想在与健康相关的领域中使用日益广泛，但那些被视为冥想的程序在操作层面上却很少或根本没有得到界定，这妨碍了其以标准化的方式使用。在本研究中，作者提出了一种冥想的可能操作定义，该定义已在圣保罗联邦大学开展的社会和学术项目中使用。在这个提议中，强调了为被界定为冥想，该程序应包含以下要求：（1）使用特定技术（明确定义）；（2）在过程中的某个时刻肌肉放松；（3）“逻辑放松”；（4）它必须必然是一种自我诱导的状态；以及（5）使用“自我聚焦”技能（称为“锚定”）。
