Nurse Education Today November 14, 2019 A. Yüksel, Emel Bahadır Yılmaz
A group mindfulness-based cognitive therapy program increased mindful attention awareness and reduced stress levels in nursing students. In a quasi-experimental study with 82 second-year nursing students, those who received the program showed significantly higher mindfulness scores and lower stress scores compared to a control group, with effects maintained at a 4-month follow-up. The program did not significantly affect depression or anxiety.
