Mindfulness-based interventions have been shown to have psychological benefits in college students. We explored the effects of an academic Seminar on Compassion on student psychological health.
Forty-one participants (14 male, 27 female, mean age 19.8 ± 1.4 years) were assessed pre- and post- spring semesters 2013 and 2014.
Students were randomized to the Seminar on Compassion or a wait-list control group. Participants completed self-report measures on anxiety, depression, perceived stress, self-compassion, compassion and mindfulness. Salivary alpha-amylase was also assessed.
At baseline, self-compassion and mindfulness were negatively correlated with depression, anxiety, and perceived stress. There were significant changes between the intervention and control group from Time 1 to Time 2 in mindfulness, self-compassion, compassion, and salivary alpha-amylase; however, there were no significant changes in depression, anxiety, and perceived stress.
The course was effective in increasing mindfulness, self-compassion and compassion, and decreasing a salivary marker of stress.
基于正念的干预措施已被证明对大学生有心理益处。我们探讨了一场关于慈悲心的学术研讨会对学生心理健康的影响。
2013年和2014年春季学期前后对41名参与者(14名男性,27名女性,平均年龄19.8±1.4岁)进行了评估。
学生被随机分为慈悲心研讨会组或等待名单对照组。参与者完成了关于焦虑、抑郁、感知压力、自我慈悲心、慈悲心和正念的自我报告测量。还评估了唾液α-淀粉酶。
在基线时,自我慈悲心和正念与抑郁、焦虑和感知压力呈负相关。从时间1到时间2,干预组和对照组在正念、自我慈悲心、慈悲心和唾液α-淀粉酶方面有显著变化;然而,抑郁、焦虑和感知压力没有显著变化。
该课程有效地提高了正念、自我慈悲心和慈悲心,并降低了一种压力的唾液标志物。
