“…Participants who enjoyed the practice of meditation were most likely to adhere to daily practice and reported that meditation got easier as they practiced. There is a paucity of research on factors that influence meditation adherence rates (Forbes et al, ; Gutierrez et al, in press). These findings offer some new insights into factors that could potentially increase adherence, such as providing a foundational understanding to new practitioners about meditation as an additional wellness skill to be added to a set of skills they may already have access to.…”

“…Research has reinforced the value of meditation; however, the literature has largely ignored the mechanisms that increase compliance and effectiveness (Forbes, Gutierrez, & Johnson, ). Gutierrez et al () reported that attending a meditation class alone did not affect stress levels, but there was a significant relationship between the amount of meditation between classes and stress.…”

“…Subsequent studies acknowledged that meditation may only resonate with certain subtypes of participants, which may influence adherence (Michalsen et al, ). Several quantitative studies demonstrate that participant physical and psychological health, as well as participant level of baseline dispositional mindfulness, also influence meditation practice adherence (Forbes et al, ; Gutierrez, Forbes, & Johnson, in press). Additionally, Lane et al () demonstrated that adults with high levels of neuroticism and stress scores showed greater improvement after meditation training.…”

The positive effects of meditation have been shown to be helpful to a variety of client populations and counselors in practice. Researchers analyzed the journals of 60 counselor education students who volunteered to learn Jyoti meditation (JM) over a 6-week period. Analysis revealed 5 major themes: (a) the scheduling of time for meditation, (b) issues with concentrating, (c) environment for meditation, (d) effects on wellness, and (e) adherence to daily practice. These themes suggest avenues for how counselor educators and supervisors can help student counselors integrate JM as a self-care strategy.

“…Even values for conventional face-to-face psychological therapy range from 30 to 60% (Richards and Richardson 2012). Forbes et al (2018) provided a detailed analysis of adherence rates for an online-based MBI for university students. After the first meditation exercise, 16.5% of participants dropped out, followed by a steady decline to around 50% after the 10 th daily meditation.…”

A Pilot Randomized Controlled Trial for a Videoconference-Delivered Mindfulness-Based Group Intervention in a Nonclinical Setting

et al. 2018

Technology is increasingly being integrated into the provision of therapy and mental health interventions. While the evidence base for technology-led delivery of mindfulness-based interventions is growing, one approach to understanding the effects of technology-delivered elements includes programs that retain some aspects of traditional face-to-face interaction. This arrangement offers unique practical advantages, and also enables researchers to isolate variables that may be underlying the effects of technology-delivered interventions. The present study reports on a pilot videoconference-delivered mindfulness-based group intervention offered to university students and staff members with wait-list controls. Apart from the first session of the six-week course, the main facilitator guided evening classes remotely via online videoconferencing, with follow-up exercises via email. Participants were taught a

“…Reducir el tiempo de práctica diaria asignada a los participantes y aumentar la motivación para que mediten más minutos al día podría influir en la adherencia a la práctica diaria (Berghoff et al, 2017). De la misma forma, se ha observado que la motivación por la práctica, la toma de conciencia y la conciencia plena como rasgo pueden contribuir a predecir el nivel de adherencia (Forbes, Gutierrez y Johnson, 2017). -En el tiempo de práctica real llevado a cabo por el participante pocos son los estudios que analizan el tiempo de práctica real diaria llevada a cabo por los participantes de las investigaciones y su relación con la adherencia al entrenamiento y sus efectos.…”

La Adherencia al Entrenamiento en Meditación Mindfulness con Registro en Papel y en Aplicación Móvil

2019

Los efectos beneficiosos de la meditación mindfulness (MM) se han observado en numerosos estudios, pudiendo ser la atención y conciencia en el momento presente una variable esencial. Sin embargo, la adherencia al entrenamiento de la práctica meditativa es en ocasiones baja. Se investigaron los efectos del entrenamiento en MM sobre la atención y conciencia y si el formato de registro de la práctica de MM, formato papel (PP) (n = 27) o aplicación móvil (APP) (n = 21), produce diferencias en la adherencia al entrenamiento y en la atención y conciencia. Los resultados mostraron un aumento de la atención y conciencia tras el entrenamiento, independientemente del formato de registro de la práctica. La APP redujo el abandono al entrenamiento y aumentó el tiempo de práctica de MM cada día que se practicó.
