This study investigated the feasibility and preliminary effectiveness of a concurrent mindfulness program (MYmind) on Chinese adolescents with autism spectrum disorder and their parents in Hong Kong, China using a randomized controlled trial with a waitlist control group. Results showed the study had 80% compliance rate, 0% dropout rate, and 89% response rate. Between-group comparisons showed mindfulness had trend effects on parent's rumination (g = 1.16), mindful parenting (d = 0.6), parenting style (d = 0.59), and parenting stress (d = 0.5). The study demonstrated the feasibility of the MYmind program in the Chinese context. A larger trial with longer follow-up period is suggested to better examine the effect of mindfulness on adolescents with ASD and their parents.
本研究采用随机对照试验和等待对照的方法，在中国香港地区调查了同时进行正念训练（MYmind）对自闭症谱系障碍青少年及其家长的可行性和初步效果。结果表明，该研究的依从率为 80%，无脱落率，应答率为 89%。组间比较显示，正念训练对父母的沉思（g=1.16）、正念育儿（d=0.6）、育儿风格（d=0.59）和育儿压力（d=0.5）有趋势影响。该研究表明 MYmind 方案在中国背景下具有可行性。建议进行更大规模的试验和更长时间的随访，以更好地检验正念训练对自闭症青少年及其家长的效果。
