An increasing number of college students in the U.S. report elevations in stress and anxiety. One approach to addressing this need is to offer skills training programs.
This study used a stepped-wedge design to test the effects of a mindfulness-based coping-enhancement program on college students' stress-management, emotion regulation, coping, and well-being. The 6-week program includes didactics and practices for mindfulness, coping with challenging situations, regulating emotions, and compassion for oneself and others.
Participants ( = 208) were predominantly first-year college students living in residence halls on campus, where the program was delivered.
Students who received the program were compared to those who had not yet received the program and reported improved mindfulness, executive control, active coping, self-compassion, social connectedness, resilience, and flourishing. The majority of these changes were maintained at a three-month follow-up.
The results of this study suggest that the program shows promise for supporting well-being in college students.
越来越多的美国大学生报告称压力和焦虑水平升高。满足这一需求的一种方法是提供技能培训项目。
本研究采用逐步楔形设计来测试基于正念的应对增强计划对大学生压力管理、情绪调节、应对方式和幸福感的影响。该 6 周计划包括正念、应对挑战情况、调节情绪以及对自己和他人的同情心的教学和实践。
参与者（n=208）主要是居住在校园宿舍的一年级大学生，该计划在宿舍内实施。
接受该计划的学生与尚未接受该计划的学生进行了比较，报告称正念、执行控制、积极应对、自我同情、社交联系、适应力和繁荣感得到了提高。这些变化中的大多数在三个月的随访中得到了维持。
本研究结果表明，该计划有望支持大学生的幸福感。
