The purpose of this study is to determine the correlation between mindfulness and negative automatic thoughts in depression patients.
The sample of the study, which was conducted as a correlational descriptive study, was determined as 151 patients with depression via power analysis. The Descriptive Characteristics Form, "Mindful Attention Awareness Scale (MAAS)," and "Automatic Thoughts Questionnaire-Negative (ATQ-N)" were used to collect the data.
It was determined that the total mean score of the participants was 32.59 ± 8.55 in the MAAS and 109.06 ± 15.07 in the ATQ-N. In the study, it was found that there was a statistically negative strong correlation between mindfulness and negative automatic thoughts of patients with depression (p < 0.05).
In the study, it was determined that the patients had higher negative automatic thoughts and lower mindfulness. Also, mindfulness accounted for negative automatic thoughts at the rate of 56%.
本研究旨在确定抑郁患者正念与消极自动思维之间的相关性。
本研究采用相关性描述性研究设计,通过功效分析确定了 151 名抑郁症患者作为研究样本。使用描述性特征表、“正念注意觉察量表(MAAS)”和“自动思维问卷-消极(ATQ-N)”来收集数据。
在 MAAS 中,参与者的总分平均值为 32.59±8.55,在 ATQ-N 中为 109.06±15.07。研究发现,抑郁患者的正念与消极自动思维之间存在统计学上的负强相关(p<0.05)。
