This study investigated the impact that meditation has on Fordyce's (1977, 1983) Personal Happiness Enhancement Program (PHEP). Experimental subjects were divided into two groups, both of which received instruction on the PHEP. Subjects in one experimental group were taught a meditation exercise in addition to the PHEP. A control group received no instruction. The Happiness Measure, Psychap Inventory, Beck Depression Inventory, and State-Trait Anxiety Scale were dependent measures. The three (groups) x two (pre-post) mixed ANOVAs with Student Newman-Keuls found that the meditation plus PHEP group significantly improved on all dependent measures over both the PHEP only group and the control group. The PHEP only group improved significantly over the control group on all measures except state anxiety.
本研究调查了冥想对福代斯（1977年、1983年）的个人幸福提升计划（PHEP）的影响。实验对象被分为两组，两组均接受了PHEP的指导。其中一个实验组的受试者除了接受PHEP指导外，还学习了一种冥想练习。对照组未接受任何指导。幸福度量表、心理调适量表、贝克抑郁量表和状态-特质焦虑量表为相关测量指标。采用带有学生-纽曼-库尔斯检验的三（组）×二（前后）混合方差分析发现，冥想加PHEP组在所有相关测量指标上的改善程度均显著高于仅接受PHEP组和对照组。仅接受PHEP组在除状态焦虑外的所有指标上的改善程度均显著高于对照组。
