A 20-minutes-a-day, self-help, mindfulness-based intervention was conducted for 6 weeks with a French community sample. First, the intervention effects on affective and functioning variables were evaluated. Then, a differential approach was used to examine improvement potentiality and the perceived benefits of mindfulness according to the participants' baseline mindfulness competencies.
Participants were non-randomly assigned to a control group on the waiting list (n = 44) or a mindfulness group (n = 47). Self-report measures assessed anxiety, depression, psychological distress, mindfulness, negative self-oriented cognition, and experiential avoidance.
Improvements in the variables were observed for the mindfulness group but not for the control group, with effect sizes ranging between .53 and .88. Low baseline levels of mindfulness predicted greater improvement in mindfulness (r = -0.55, p < .001) than high baseline levels.
Mindfulness practice elicited several positive outcomes regarding affective variables, highlighting emotional functioning changes.
对法国社区样本进行了为期 6 周、每天 20 分钟的自助式正念干预。首先，评估了干预对情感和功能变量的影响。然后，根据参与者的基线正念能力，使用差异化方法来检查正念的潜在改善能力和感知益处。
参与者被非随机分配到等待名单对照组（n=44）或正念组（n=47）。自我报告的测量评估了焦虑、抑郁、心理困扰、正念、消极的自我导向认知和体验回避。
正念组的变量有所改善，但对照组没有，效应大小在 0.53 到 0.88 之间。低基线水平的正念预测了更大的正念改善（r = -0.55，p <.001），而高基线水平则没有。
正念练习在情感变量方面产生了一些积极的结果，强调了情绪功能的变化。
