Background. As distress in society increases, including work environments, individual capacities to compete with stress have to be strengthened. Objective. We examined the impact of a web-based happiness training on psychological and physiological parameters, by self-report and objective means, in an occupational health setting. Methods. Randomized controlled trial with 147 employees. Participants were divided into intervention (happiness training) and control groups (waiting list). The intervention consisted of a seven-week online training. Questionnaires were administered before, after, and four weeks after training. The following scales were included: VAS (happiness and satisfaction), WHO-5 Well-being Index, Stress Warning Signals, Freiburg Mindfulness Inventory, Recovery Experience Questionnaire, and Flourishing Scale. Subgroup samples for saliva cortisol and alpha-amylase determinations were taken, indicating stress, and Attention Network Testing for effects on attention regulation. Results. Happiness (P = 0.000; d = 0.93), satisfaction (P = 0.000; d = 1.17), and quality of life (P = 0.000; d = 1.06) improved; perceived stress was reduced (P = 0.003; d = 0.64); mindfulness (P = 0.006; d = 0.62), flourishing (P = 0.002; d = 0.63), and recovery experience (P = 0.030; d = 0.42) also increased significantly. No significant differences in the Attention Network Tests and saliva results occurred (intergroup), except for one saliva value. Conclusions. The web-based training can be a useful tool for stabilizing health/psychological well-being and work/life balance.
背景。随着社会压力的增加,包括工作环境在内,个体应对压力的能力必须得到加强。目的。我们在职业健康环境中,通过自我报告和客观手段,研究了基于网络的幸福培训对心理和生理参数的影响。方法。一项随机对照试验,共纳入 147 名员工。参与者被分为干预组(幸福培训)和对照组(等待名单)。干预措施包括为期七周的在线培训。在培训前、培训后和培训后四周进行问卷调查。包括以下量表:VAS(幸福感和满意度)、WHO-5 幸福指数、压力警告信号、弗莱堡正念量表、恢复体验问卷和繁荣量表。对唾液皮质醇和 alpha-淀粉酶测定的亚组样本进行了采集,以反映压力,以及注意力网络测试对注意力调节的影响。结果。幸福感(P = 0.000;d = 0.93)、满意度(P = 0.000;d = 1.17)和生活质量(P = 0.000;d = 1.06)提高;感知压力降低(P = 0.003;d = 0.64);正念(P = 0.006;d = 0.62)、繁荣(P = 0.002;d = 0.63)和恢复体验(P = 0.030;d = 0.42)也显著增加。注意力网络测试和唾液结果(组间)没有显著差异,除了一个唾液值。结论。基于网络的培训可以成为稳定健康/心理健康和工作/生活平衡的有用工具。
