Effects Of Mindfulness Training On Cognitive Control And Emotional Complexity In Convalescent Schizophrenic Inpatients

To verify the effectiveness of mindfulness training program based on mindfulness cognitive therapy in improving mindfulness awareness in convalescent schizophrenic inpatients,reveal the influence of mindfulness training on refresh,inhibition and conversion of cognitive control,and analyze the effects of mindfulness training on emotional complexity.A total of 72 convalescent schizophrenic inpatients were selected and randomly divided into mindfulness training group and control group.Rehabilitation treatment,including medication and mental health education,was carried out on both groups.In addition,the mindfulness group received 8 weeks of mindfulness training.Before and after the intervention,all the subjects were evaluated by general information questionnaire,FFMQ,RDEES,1-back task,Stroop task and AX-CPT tasks.The results showed that,in terms of mindfulness awareness,the post-test score of FFMQ in the mindfulness group was significantly higher than that of pre-test(p<0.001),and significantly higher than that of the control group(p<0.001).In terms of cognitive control,in 1-back task,the post-test response time of mindfulness group was significantly lower than that of pre-test(p<0.01),and significantly lower than that of control group(p<0.05).In Stroop task,the post-test response time of the mindfulness group was significantly lower than that of the pre-test under inconsistent condition(p<0.001),and significantly lower than that of the control group(p<0.05).In AX-CPT task,the post-test response time of mindfulness group was significantly lower than that of pre-test(p<0.01),and significantly lower than that of control group(p<0.01).In terms of emotional complexity,the post-test score of RDEES in the mindfulness group was significantly higher than that of pre-test(p<0.001),and significantly higher than that in the control group(p<0.01).These results suggest that the mindfulness training program based on mindfulness cognitive therapy can effectively improve the mindfulness awareness of convalescent schizophrenic inpatients,improve their cognitive control functions such as refresh,inhibition and conversion,and increase their emotional complexity.Figure 16;Table 6;Reference 152...
