Past research has established the beneficial effects of mindfulness on mental health. The present study attempts to extend the previous literature by examining the potential mediating role of resilience between mindfulness and mental health relationships. A survey questionnaire comprising the Cognitive and Affective Mindfulness Scale-Revised (CAMS-R), Wagnild and Young Brief Resilience scale, and Mental Health Continuum-Short Form (MHC-SF) was administered to 431 respondents from India. Confirmatory factor analysis confirmed the tripartite structure of MHC-SF, developed by to facilitate mental health assessment (including its three components: emotional, psychological, and social), in the Indian context. The study outcomes revealed that mindfulness was significantly associated with mental health (β = 0.472, < 0.001) and its three dimensions: emotional (β = 0.405, < 0.001), psychological (β = 0.480, < 0.001), and social well-being (β = 0.296, < 0.001). Resilience mediated the relationship between mindfulness and mental health, and its dimensions. The study findings provide information regarding the previously unknown resilience process through which mindfulness exerts its beneficial effects on mental health.
过去的研究已经证实了正念对心理健康的有益影响。本研究试图通过考察心理韧性在正念与心理健康关系之间的潜在中介作用来拓展先前的文献。一份包含修订后的认知与情感正念量表(CAMS-R)、瓦格尼尔德和扬简短心理韧性量表以及心理健康连续体简表(MHC-SF)的调查问卷被施测于431名来自印度的受访者。验证性因素分析证实了MHC-SF的三方结构,该结构是为了便于在印度背景下进行心理健康评估而开发的(包括其三个组成部分:情感、心理和社会)。研究结果显示,正念与心理健康(β = 0.472,< 0.001)及其三个维度显著相关:情感(β = 0.405,< 0.001)、心理(β = 0.480,< 0.001)和社会幸福感(β = 0.296,< 0.001)。心理韧性介导了正念与心理健康及其维度之间的关系。研究结果提供了关于先前未知的心理韧性过程的信息,通过这个过程,正念对心理健康产生有益影响。
