This study examines the effectiveness of incorporating compassion meditation training into a clinical pastoral education (CPE) curriculum to enhance compassion satisfaction and reduce burnout among hospital chaplain residents. Specifically, a longitudinal, quasi-experimental design was used to examine the impact of Cognitively-Based Compassion Training (CBCT), a group-delivered compassion meditation intervention. Hospital chaplain residents ( = 15) were assigned to participate in a CBCT intervention or a waitlist comparison group. Chaplains assigned to CBCT reported significant decreases in burnout and anxiety compared to the waitlist group; effects were not maintained at 4-month follow-up. Other outcomes, including compassion satisfaction, did not differ significantly but were trending in the expected direction. Findings suggest that compassion meditation training incorporated into CPE promotes chaplain wellbeing, although it may be necessary to extend CBCT throughout residency to sustain effects.
本研究探讨将慈悲冥想法训练纳入临床神职教育(CPE)课程,以提高医院牧师住院医师的慈悲满意度并减少职业倦怠的有效性。具体而言,采用纵向准实验设计来检验基于认知的慈悲训练(CBCT)的影响,这是一种通过小组进行的慈悲冥想干预。医院牧师住院医师(n = 15)被分配参加CBCT干预或等待名单对照组。与等待名单组相比,被分配参加CBCT的牧师报告职业倦怠和焦虑显著降低;在4个月的随访中效果未持续。包括慈悲满意度在内的其他结果没有显著差异,但呈预期趋势。研究结果表明,纳入CPE的慈悲冥想训练可促进牧师的幸福感,尽管可能有必要在整个住院医师期间延长CBCT以维持效果。
