Recent studies point to an increase in psychological distress among graduate students. The aim of this study was to analyze the effects of mindfulness practices on emotion regulation, on the perception of stress, and on the psychological well-being of graduate students. Forty-five (45) graduate students participated in the study, divided into an intervention and a control group. Questionnaires were applied for self-assessment of mindfulness, perceived stress, and psychological well-being, in addition to qualitative interviews in the pre- and post-timeframes of a mindfulness-based intervention. Quantitative data were analyzed using ANOVAs for repeated measures, while the interviews were analyzed using the thematic content analysis technique. The results indicated increases in the levels of mindfulness and psychological well-being, and a reduction in perceived stress in the intervention group, post-intervention. The interviews indicated the presence of ambivalent emotions in relation to graduate studies and the development of new strategies to cope with the stress in this work context. The main contribution of the study was to present empirical evidence of the effectiveness of mindfulness practices in the graduate-level education context, allowing students to become more capable of dealing with the challenges of an academic career.

最近的研究表明研究生的心理困扰有所增加。本研究的目的是分析正念练习对研究生情绪调节、压力感知和心理健康的影响。45名研究生参与了该研究，分为干预组和对照组。除了在基于正念的干预前后进行定性访谈外，还应用问卷对正念、感知压力和心理健康进行自我评估。定量数据使用重复测量方差分析进行分析，而访谈则使用主题内容分析技术进行分析。结果表明，干预组在干预后正念水平和心理健康有所提高，感知压力有所降低。访谈表明，研究生在学习方面存在矛盾情绪，并在这种工作环境中制定了应对压力的新策略。该研究的主要贡献是提供了正念练习在研究生教育背景下有效性的实证证据，使学生更有能力应对学术生涯的挑战。
