The purpose of this pilot study was to examine the effectiveness of a 6-week workplace mindfulness- and self-compassion-based intervention (MSCBI) on perceived stress, burnout, immune functioning (assessed with the biomarker Immunoglobulin A), self-compassion, and experiential avoidance compared to a Workplace Stress Management Intervention. Both interventions were contextual, i.e., they were carried out in the workplace setting and during working hours. We followed a randomised controlled trial study design. The total sample was composed of 24 employees of an automotive company. One-way analyses of covariance between groups revealed significant differences in post-intervention levels of perceived stress, salivary Immunoglobulin A (sIgA), emotional exhaustion, self-compassion, and experiential avoidance, after adjusting for pre-test scores. The results of this study have several implications. Firstly, it confirms that MSCBIs might be more effective than regular psychoeducational interventions for work-related stress and burnout treatment. Secondly, sIgA can be used to assess immune function state changes when MSCBIs are carried out. Furthermore, these results indicate that it is feasible to carry out MSCBIs within companies and during working hours, and that these interventions can help effectively manage stress and burnout associated with the work environment.
本研究旨在考察为期 6 周的基于正念和自我同情的工作场所干预（MSCBI）与工作场所压力管理干预相比，对感知压力、倦怠、免疫功能（以免疫球蛋白 A 为生物标志物评估）、自我同情和体验回避的有效性。这两种干预都是情境性的，即它们在工作场所环境和工作时间进行。我们采用了随机对照试验研究设计。在调整了前测分数后，组间的单向协方差分析显示，在干预后，感知压力、唾液免疫球蛋白 A（sIgA）、情绪耗竭、自我同情和体验回避的水平存在显著差异。这项研究的结果具有几个意义。首先，它证实了 MSCBI 可能比常规心理教育干预更有效治疗与工作相关的压力和倦怠。其次，sIgA 可以用于评估 MSCBI 实施时免疫功能状态的变化。此外，这些结果表明，在公司内部和工作时间内进行 MSCBI 是可行的，并且这些干预措施可以有效管理与工作环境相关的压力和倦怠。
