本研究采用一种新的正念评估范式，探讨了正念与反刍、重复性消极思维和抑郁症状之间的关系。来自一个中央练习的正念为基础的干预措施，42名本科生被要求观察他们的呼吸约18分钟。在此期间，他们被提示22次，在不规则的时间间隔，以表明他们是否失去了正念与他们的呼吸作为一个结果的走神。结果显示，保持正念与呼吸接触的能力与反刍、重复性消极思维和抑郁的测量之间存在负相关。此外，正念的自我报告数据的积极关联和身体感觉的恐惧的负面关系，支持我们的新方法的正念评估的结构效度。总之，研究结果表明，关于抑郁症相关过程的正念呼吸的健康质量。
The present study examines the relationships between mindfulness and rumination, repetitive negative thinking, and depressive symptoms, employing a newly developed paradigm for the assessment of mindfulness. Derived from a central exercise of mindfulness-based interventions, 42 undergraduates were asked to observe their breath for about 18 min. Within this time period, they were prompted 22 times at irregular intervals to indicate whether they had lost mindful contact with their breath as a result of mind wandering. The results show negative correlations between the degree of the ability to stay mindfully in contact with the breath and measures of rumination, repetitive negative thinking, and depression. Moreover, positive associations with self-report data of mindfulness and a negative relationship to fear of bodily sensations support the construct validity of our new approach for the assessment of mindfulness. In summary, findings suggest the healthy quality of mindful breathing regarding depression-related processes.
