“…O achado de que uma intervenção baseada na meditação pode auxiliar na redução dos níveis percebidos de estresse está em consonância com outros estudos que avaliaram tanto amostras universitárias (Carmody & Baer, 2008;Fan et al, 2014;Greeson et al, 2014;Jain et al, 2007;Oman et al, 2008;Shapiro et al, 2011), como não universitárias (Baer, Carmody, & Hunsinger, 2012). No presente estudo, a intervenção de meditação focada produziu um efeito protetivo para o estresse especialmente nas fases de resistência e quaseexaustão.…”

“…Estes resultados corroboram parcialmente achados de estudos anteriores que encontraram mudanças para a faceta descrever e não reagir em estudantes universitários após intervenções baseadas na meditação, comparado a um grupo controle (Baer et al, 2012;Bruin, Meppelink, & Bögels, 2015;Carmody & Baer, 2008). No entanto, também existem resultados com universitários que mostraram melhora em outras facetas, tal como observar, não julgar e agir com consciência (Bruin et al, 2015;Carmody & Baer, 2008).…”

“…Esta metanálise (Khoury et al, 2013) também mostrou que o tamanho de efeito da mudança do desfecho de mindfulness moderou o tamanho de efeito das intervenções sobre os desfechos clínicos (sintomas de ansiedade, depressão e estresse). O papel mediador de mindfulness disposicional sobre o desfecho do estresse também foi demonstrado por outro estudo que avaliou amostra universitária (Baer et al, 2012). Estes resultados apoiam a correlação encontrada no presente estudo entre uma menor presença de estresse e uma maior habilidade de mindfulness.…”

RESUMO -Intervenções meditativas têm sido utilizadas nas universidades para reduzir estresse. Este trabalho objetivou investigar o efeito de um treino de meditação focada de seis semanas no estresse (utilizando o Inventário de Sintomas de Estresse da Lipp) e mindfulness disposicional (utilizando o Questionário das Cinco Facetas de Mindfulness versão Brasileira) em universitários. Um ensaio controlado não randomizado comparou um grupo experimental e um grupo de lista de espera antes e após a intervenção. Apenas o grupo experimental reduziu a presença de estresse nas fases resistência, quase-exaustão e geral. Apresentou, ainda, aumento significativo de mindfulness nas facetas descrever, não reagir e no escore total. Conclui-se que treinos meditativos podem configurar uma alternativa para intervenções visando ao manejo de estresse e aprimoramento de habilidades de mindfulness nas universidades.Palavras-chave: meditação, estresse, mindfulness, universitários. Effects of Focused Meditation on Stress and Dispositional Mindfulness in College StudentsABSTRACT -Meditation based interventions have been used in universities to reduce stress. This study aimed to investigate the effect of a six-week focused meditation-training on stress (using Lipp´s Inventory of Stress Symptoms) and dispositional mindfulness (using the Five Facet Mindfulness Questionnaire -Brazilian version) in college students from southern Brazil. A nonrandomized controlled trial was conducted to compare the experimental group and the waitlist control group before and after the training. Compared with controls, the experimental group demonstrated significant improvements for stress, and increases in mindfulness scores, particularly for the facets describe and non-react. The results suggest that meditative practice may be an alternative for interventions aiming to tackle stress and enhance mindfulness skills in the university context.

How Is Stress Reduced by a Workplace Mindfulness Intervention? A Qualitative Study Conceptualising Experiences of Change

et al. 2017

Mindfulness-based interventions are effective as curative and preventative approaches to psychological health. However, the mechanisms by which outcomes are secured from such interventions when delivered in the workplace, and to a stressed workforce, are not well understood. The aim of the present study was to elicit and analyse accounts from past participants of a workplace mindfulness intervention in order to generate a preliminary model of how positive benefits appear to be secured. In-depth, semi-structured interviews were completed with 21 employees of a higher education institution who had completed an eight-week intervention based on Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction, adapted for the workplace. Interviews invited participants to recount their experiences of the intervention and its impact, if any, on their work life. Aspects of the interview data that pertained to intervention experience and positive benefits were analysed using a version of grounded theory, leading to the generation of a provisional model of how positive change occurred. The model suggests that discrete, temporal experiences build on each other to generate multiple, positive benefits. As anticipated in mindfulness-based interventions, enhanced attentional capacity was important, but our provisional model also suggests that resonance, self-care, detection of stress markers, perceiving choice, recovering self-agency and upward spiralling may be central mechanisms that lead to positive outcomes. Understanding mechanisms of change may help support participant engagement and trust in work-based mindfulness programmes, and enhance participants' ability to apply mindfulness in their work life.

“…For example, Baer, Carmody, and Hunsinger (2012) examined weekly changes in self-reported mindfulness and perceived stress in participants who completed an 8-week course in mindfulness-based stress reduction (MBSR). Participants were 87 adults with problematic levels of stress related to chronic illness, chronic pain, and other life circumstances who participated in MBSR at an academic medical center.…”

Weekly Change in Mindfulness and Perceived Stress in a Mindfulness‐Based Stress Reduction Program

Abstract: Evidence that changes in mindfulness precede changes in perceived stress in a standard MBSR course is consistent with previous studies suggesting that improvements in mindfulness skills may mediate the effects of mindfulness training on mental health outcomes.
