Abstract:
I detta examensarbete undersöktes mindfulnessbaserad stressreduktions eventuella påverkan på krigsveteraner som lider av posttraumatiskt stressyndrom. Ett stort antal krigsveteraner lider av posttraumatisk stress och därmed finns ett stort behov av metoder för rehabilitering. Mindfulness innebär att vara medveten och närvarande i nuet utan att döma eller värdera tankar och känslor som uppkommer både vid utövande ochi vardagen. Metoden har enligt tidigare forskning med andra målgrupper utgjort en bra grundvid stresshantering. Tillvägagångssättet i uppsatsen var systematisk litteraturstudie base

Abstract:
Both mindfulness and authentic leadership base themselves on self-awareness. Authentic leadership has positively predicted organizational citizenship behavior (OCB), and mindfulness has been positively correlated to work engagement, which has shared positive relationships with OCB. Job demands (JD) have been shown to compromise work engagement. Using a sample of 134 MBA and undergraduate students, a longitudinal design evaluated the meditational role of authentic functioning (AF) between mindfulness and OCB and the moderating role of JD.

Bakgrund: Koncentrations- och uppmärksamhetsförmågorna är betydelsefulla att inneha för att barnen ska kunna tillgodogöra sig lärandet fullt ut i skolan. Koncentration betyder att kunna behålla sin sin uppmärksamhet under en viss tid, utan att tankarna drar iväg. För de barnen som har svårigheter med att samordna sin perception, samt rikta sina tankar mot ett särskilt ändamål, får besvärligheter inom olika områden, som i sin tur påverkar deras beteende. Det kan medföra en negativ inverkan på deras relation till sin omgivning. Genom yoga- och mindfulnessövningar, tränas närvaron och koncentrati

Abstract:
First part of Volume I of the thesis presents a systematic review exploring the effects of mindfulness based stress reduction on sleep disturbance. The reviewed studies showed a mixed picture - no clear conclusions could be drawn regarding effectiveness of the intervention on the sleep disturbance. Next an empirical study focused on the relationship between changes in mindfulness and changes in neurobehavioural functioning among people with acquired brain injury attending a mindfulness group is presented. The data was collected and analysed using a mixture of quantitative and qualitative metho

Abstract:
Mindfulness may be one way in which common factors could be enhanced in trainee therapists. Previous research has found some support for mindfulness increasing empathy, compassion and emotion regulation, but research is affected by a lack of active control groups and interventions with multiple components. An experimental design was used with a brief (15 min) mindfulness practice compared to a brief (15 min) ‘mind-wandering’ control group, in order to overcome some of these confounds. Participants were 48 trainee therapists who were randomly assigned to two groups of equal sizes. Measures were

Abstract:
Mindfulness utövas av sjuksköterskor i en ökad omfattning både i öppenvården och slutenvården och ges till allt sjukare patienter. Omvårdnadsåtgärder inom psykiatrisk vård syftar till att stärka patientens förmåga till återhämtning, vilket väcker frågan kring vilka verktyg psykiatrisjuksköterskan bör använda, då självkänsla, empowerment och livskvalitet står för en stor del av hälsoupplevelsen hos patienter. Syftet var därför att sammanställa kunskap om mindfulness och dess betydelse för återhämtning i psykiatrisk vård. Då ämnet var lite beforskat inom omvårdnadsforskningen utfördes en systema

Abstract:
Due to the health and relational benefits associated with mindfulness, interest has increased in researching the topic. Typically, samples have been more homogeneous with no attention given to variations in mindfulness levels that may exist based on individuals’ characteristics. Therefore, this study assessed levels of three facets of mindfulness – non-reactivity, awareness, and non-judgement - with 1796 diverse individuals. Results indicate differences in mean level of non-reactivity based on sex, education level, income, and relationship status, with higher levels, on average, for males, ind

Abstract:
<p> Organizations continue to invest time and money in diversity programs to provide people with the competencies to work effectively in an increasingly diverse workplace. Most programs are based on cognitive theories of behavior change and research however fails to show long-term changes in attitudes and behavior (e.g., Brynes &amp; Kiger, 1990; Hogan &amp; Mallot, 2005; Sanchez &amp; Medkik, 2004). Empirical work on mindfulness demonstrates that greater awareness of the process of one&rsquo;s own thinking, and the process of active categorization has been associated with reductions in stereo

Abstract:
It is well documented that the perinatal period (the time from pregnancy until the first year of a child’s life) is a crucial window of opportunity for foetal and infant development. Evidence suggests that parental psychopathology can have harmful consequences for the parent-infant relationship, parents’ relationship, infant’s development and later mental-health into adulthood. The focus of this thesis will be on exploring mindfulness as one possible non-pharmacological intervention that could benefit parents’ emotional well-being during the perinatal period.
