Abstract
This study examined the efficacy of mindfulness based cognitive therapy on children (MBCT-C) with anxiety. Two hundred and forty children were screened, of which 52 (25 boys and 27 girls) with anxiety were randomly allocated to either MBCT-C or group therapy (GT including cognitive behavioral principles). Both groups were rated on the Spence Children's Anxiety Scale and Emotion Regulation Questionnaire-Child and Adolescent, pre- and 12 weeks post-interventions. MBCT-C was found to be more effective than GT in improving anxiety among children (between-group effect size Cohen's d 1.05) and as effective as GT in reducing emotion suppression for effective emotion regulation. This study provides support for MBCT-C as an effective group intervention for children with anxiety.
本研究考察了正念认知疗法对儿童焦虑的疗效。对240名儿童进行了筛查，其中52名(25名男孩和27名女孩)患有焦虑症，被随机分配到MBCT-C或团体治疗(包括认知行为原则)。在干预前和干预后12周，两组都用斯宾塞儿童焦虑量表和儿童和青少年情绪调节问卷进行评分。发现MBCT-C在改善儿童焦虑方面比GT更有效(组间效应大小Cohen's d 1.05)，在减少情绪抑制以有效调节情绪方面与GT同样有效。本研究为MBCT-C作为一种有效的焦虑儿童群体干预提供了支持。
