The aim of this study was to evaluate the effects of an 8-week Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction course (MBSR) on people with Parkinson's disease who experienced depression, anxiety, stress or difficulty coping with Parkinson's.
Thirteen participants were recruited and six completed the full MBSR course. Data were analysed using repeated measures analysis of variance and thematic analysis.
There were significant improvements in levels of depression, anxiety and stress at weeks eight and sixteen, as measured by the Depression Anxiety and Stress Scale, short version (DASS-21). Themes of 'mindfulness as challenging' and 'mindfulness as life-enhancing' were identified from follow-up questionnaire responses. All participants reported they would recommend MBSR to other people with Parkinson's.
This study supports previous preliminary findings that mindfulness-based interventions could benefit people with Parkinson's experiencing non-motor symptoms. Further research using larger sample sizes, a control group, and a longer follow-up period is required.
本研究旨在评估为期 8 周的正念减压课程（MBSR）对患有抑郁症、焦虑症、压力或难以应对帕金森病的帕金森病患者的影响。
招募了 13 名参与者，其中 6 名完成了完整的 MBSR 课程。使用重复测量方差分析和主题分析对数据进行分析。
使用抑郁焦虑和压力量表（DASS-21）测量，在第 8 周和第 16 周，抑郁、焦虑和压力水平均显著降低。从随访问卷回答中得出了“正念具有挑战性”和“正念增强生活”的主题。所有参与者均表示他们将向其他帕金森病患者推荐 MBSR。
本研究支持先前的初步发现，即正念干预可能有益于患有非运动症状的帕金森病患者。需要使用更大的样本量、对照组和更长的随访期进行进一步的研究。
