Mindfulness-based interventions (MBIs) may offer a means for Latinx families to ameliorate stress, enhance emotion regulation, and foster social support. We assessed pilot data from Latinx parents in Eastside Los Angeles (n = 27) matched with their children aged 10-16 (n = 32) to determine whether participation in a community-derived MBI was associated with greater improvements in dispositional mindfulness, perceived stress, emotion regulation, and family social support compared to a control condition. Compared to the control group, parents in the MBI group showed greater reductions in perceived stress scale (PSS) scores (B = - 2.94, 95% CI [- 5.58, - 0.39], p = 0.029), while their children reported greater increases in perceived social support from family (B = 2.32, 95% CI [0.26, 4.38], p = 0.027). Findings show a community-derived MBI may improve stress in Latinx parents and social support for their children.
正念干预(MBI)可能为拉丁裔美国家庭提供一种减轻压力、增强情绪调节能力和培养社会支持的方法。我们评估了来自洛杉矶东区的拉丁裔父母(n=27)及其 10-16 岁子女(n=32)的试点数据,以确定与对照组相比,参与社区衍生的 MBI 是否与更高的特质正念、感知压力、情绪调节和家庭社会支持改善相关。与对照组相比,MBI 组的父母感知压力量表(PSS)评分的降低更为明显(B= -2.94,95%置信区间 [-5.58,-0.39],p=0.029),而他们的孩子报告家庭感知社会支持的增加更为明显(B= 2.32,95%置信区间 [0.26,4.38],p=0.027)。研究结果表明,社区衍生的 MBI 可能改善拉丁裔父母的压力和子女的社会支持。
