研究背景心理意象可以帮助人们获得有意义的体验，改善他们的身心健康。本研究旨在探讨积极心理意象训练的干预效果（意象认知偏差修正）对中国大学生轻度抑郁症状的负性情绪的影响（组：训练组、非训练组）（时间：术前、术后、1周随访和6周随访）本研究采用混合设计，组为参与者间因素，时间为参与者内因素。49名参与者被伪随机分配到意象训练组（接受7天的训练）或非训练组（继续他们的日常生活）。两组均于干预后1周和6周通过在线问卷进行随访。重复测量方差分析使用基线，培训后（所有参与者，N = 49），和后续（N = 42）data.ResultsCompared在没有训练组的参与者，积极的心理意象训练组的参与者表现出改善抑郁症状和特质焦虑;以及在随后的三次评估中对积极意象的可能性评级。积极意象的生动性在训练后也有所改善。然而，有没有显着的组间差异，在负性解释bias.ConclusionsPositive心理意象训练有效地改善负性情绪和焦虑的成年人抑郁症状的训练后1周，这些影响持续至少6周，表明这种类型的培训，应进一步探讨在中国。
BackgroundMental imagery can help people have meaningful experiences and improve their mental and physical health. This study aimed to explore the intervention effect of positive mental imagery training (imagery cognitive bias modification) on the negative emotions of Chinese college students with at least mild symptoms of depression.MethodsA 2 (group: training group, non-training group) by 4 (time: pre-, post-, 1-week follow-up, and 6-week follow-up) mixed design was used in this study, with the group as the between-participants factor and the time as the within-participants factor. Forty-nine participants were pseudo-randomly assigned to either the imagery training group (received 7 days of training) or the non-training group (continued their daily lives as usual). Both groups were followed up at 1 week and 6 weeks after the intervention via online questionnaires. Repeated-measures analyses of variance were conducted using baseline, post-training (all participants, N = 49), and follow-up (N = 42) data.ResultsCompared to participants in the no training group, participants in the positive mental imagery training group showed improvements in depression symptoms and trait anxiety; as well as the likelihood rating of positive imagery across the subsequent three assessments.The vividness of positive imagery post-training also improved. However, there was no significant between-group difference in negative interpretation bias.ConclusionsPositive mental imagery training effectively improved negative emotions and anxiety in adults with depression symptoms after 1 week of training, with these effects lasting for at least 6 weeks, indicating that this type of training should be further explored in China.
