Implementation variability is hypothesized to be a key treatment effect modifier of universal, school-based mental health interventions, but the evidence base remains meagre. We used Complier Average Causal Effect (CACE) estimation to determine if dosage variability modified treatment effects of relaxation techniques and mindfulness-based exercises in the INSPIRE cluster randomised trial....
Background. Combining mindfulness training with transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) is feasible and generally well tolerated, but the existing literature has produced feasibility findings rather than mechanistic ones. No trial has contrasted a stimulation montage matched to the network a contemplative practice preferentially engages against a montage matched to a different practice's...

Despite growing interest, limited research has examined integration, particularly by practitioners without formal mindfulness qualifications. Ten HCPC-registered counselling and clinical psychologists, practising in the UK participated in semi-structured interviews...
Abstract Objectives Although mindfulness has been widely studied in group-based interventions, less is known about how therapists integrate mindfulness into individual psychotherapy. This is a critical gap, given the differences in therapeutic dynamics and the increased flexibility required in one-to-one formats. The aim of this study was to investigate how therapists think about and apply...
본 연구는 MBCT, 예술치료, 치유농업 등을 통합적으로 적용한 집단프로그램이 중년여성의 우울증상 완화에 미치는 긍정적 가능성 및 영향관계를 탐색해 보는 데 목적이 있다. 이에 MBCT의 비판단적 인식과 수용적 태도를 기반으로 하여 미술, 시, 글쓰기 등 예술적 표현 활동과 치유농업 활동을 적용한 통합치유 집단프로그램을 구성하였다. 연구대상은 K지역에 거주하는 중년여성 11명을 대상으로 하였으며, 8주간 주 1회, 회기당 120분씩 프로그램을 실시하였다. 프로그램의 긍정적 가능성을 탐색하기 위해 한국우울척도(KDS), 상태-특성불안검사(K-STAI), 자기효능감 척도를 활용하여 사전·사후 검사를 실시하고 대응표본 t-검증을 수행하였다. 연구 결과, 프로그램 참여 이후 우울과 불안 수준이 유의하게...
