目的：本文描述了一项针对父母和儿童的基于正念的干预措施（正念家庭减压）的随机临床试验结果，该试验采用了一种针对青少年注意力的行为测量方法——注意力网络任务（ANT）。方法：41对亲子被随机分配到基于正念的干预组或等待名单对照组。学龄青少年在干预前后完成注意力网络任务。结果：结果显示，对注意力网络任务的冲突监测子系统有显著的、中等程度（f(2)= -0.16）的干预效果，即干预组在冲突监测方面的下降幅度大于等待名单对照组。与对照组相比，干预组的青少年在定向子系统得分上也有所提高。结论：针对青少年的基于正念的干预措施在改善注意力自我调节方面具有潜在效用，未来的研究应考虑将注意力测量纳入使用正念训练的干预措施中。
Objective: This article describes results from a randomized clinical trial of a mindfulness-based intervention for parents and children, Mindful Family Stress Reduction, on a behavioral measure of attention in youths, the Attention Network Task (ANT). Method: Forty-one parent-child dyads were randomly assigned to either the mindfulness-based intervention condition or a wait-list control. School-age youths completed the ANT before and after the intervention. Results: Results demonstrate significant, medium-size (f(2) = -.16) intervention effects to the conflict monitoring subsystem of the ANT such that those in the intervention condition decreased in conflict monitoring more than those in the wait-list control. Youths in the intervention condition also showed improvements in their orienting subsystem scores, compared with controls. Conclusion: Mindfulness-based interventions for youths have potential utility to improve attentional self-regulation, and future research should consider incorporating measures of attention into interventions that use mindfulness training.
