Two studies were conducted to determine whether mindfulness meditation could be an effective tool for improving well-being among legal professionals-a population plagued by high rates of depression, anxiety, and stress.
Study 1. Legal professionals completed questionnaires before and after an 8-week mindfulness program. Study 2. Lawyers were randomly assigned to either an experimental or waitlist condition. Questionnaires were administered at the beginning of the study and after experimental participants had completed a 30-day intervention.
Study 1. Participants reported significant improvements in mood, resilience, trait mindfulness, stress, anxiety, and depression over time. Study 2. Post-intervention, experimental participants reported better mood, lower levels of stress, and higher levels of non-reactivity and observing than waitlist participants.
Mindfulness and meditation may effectively improve well-being among legal professionals.
进行了两项研究，旨在确定正念冥想是否可以成为改善法律专业人员幸福感的有效工具，因为该人群普遍存在抑郁、焦虑和压力等问题。
研究 1. 法律专业人员在参加为期 8 周的正念课程前后完成了问卷调查。研究 2. 律师被随机分配到实验组或候补组。在研究开始时和实验组完成 30 天干预后，进行了问卷调查。
研究 1. 参与者报告称，随着时间的推移，情绪、韧性、特质正念、压力、焦虑和抑郁等方面有显著改善。研究 2. 干预后，实验组报告称情绪更好，压力水平更低，非反应性和观察性更高，而候补组则没有。
正念和冥想可能有效地改善法律专业人员的幸福感。
