Abstract
This study consolidated the association of mindfulness with perceived stress found across studies. A meta-analysis examined the relationship between mindfulness and perceived stress in 56 samples, which included a total of 24,494 participants. The weighted effect size of r(55) = -0.40, 95% CI [-0.36, 0-44], p = 0.0001, showed that greater mindfulness was associated with less perceived stress. Studies assessing mindfulness using the Mindful Attention Awareness Scale or the Five Facet Mindfulness Questionnaire showed substantial effect sizes, as did studies assessing stress using the Perceived Stress Scale. Even though the present meta-analysis does not show causality, the results suggest a possible bidirectional relationship between mindfulness and perceived stress. The nonjudgmental awareness comprising mindfulness may facilitate an appraisal of life events and challenges that results in events and challenges as being perceived as less stressful. Lower perceived stress may free cognitive resources that promote mindfulness.
这项研究巩固了在其他研究中发现的正念与感知压力之间的联系。一项荟萃分析在56个样本中检验了正念和感知压力之间的关系，其中包括24,494名参与者。加权效应大小r(55) = -0.40, 95% CI [-0.36, 0-44], p = 0.0001，表明更强的正念与更少的感知压力相关。使用正念注意力意识量表或五面正念问卷评估正念的研究显示了可观的效应大小，使用感知压力量表评估压力的研究也是如此。尽管目前的荟萃分析没有显示因果关系，但结果表明正念和感知压力之间可能存在双向关系。由正念组成的非判断性意识可以促进对生活事件和挑战的评估，从而使事件和挑战被视为压力较小。较低的感知压力可以释放认知资源，促进正念。
期刊介绍：
Stress is a normal component of life and a number of mechanisms exist to cope with its effects. The stresses that challenge man"s existence in our modern society may result in failure of these coping mechanisms, with resultant stress-induced illness. The aim of the journal therefore is to provide a forum for discussion of all aspects of stress which affect the individual in both health and disease.
The Journal explores the subject from as many aspects as possible, so that when stress becomes a consideration, health information can be presented as to the best ways by which to minimise its effects.
