Abstract

The improvements in attention by mindfulness training have been proved. However, the effects of mindfulness training on attention to emotional stimuli were mixed. We employed a randomized, controlled design to investigate the effects of mindfulness training on attention to emotional expressions, and investigated whether baseline levels of dispositional mindfulness and emotional intelligence would moderate the intervention effects. Forty participants received 8‐week mindfulness training, and another forty participants attended two lectures about mindfulness. All participants completed the visual search task, the Five Facet Mindfulness Questionnaire, and the Emotional Intelligence Scale at both pre‐training and post‐training. The results showed that the improvements in search efficiencies were larger in the mindfulness group than those in the control group for sad and angry faces, but not for happy faces. In addition, baseline emotional intelligence but not dispositional mindfulness played a significant moderating role in the relationship between mindfulness training and emotional attention to sadness and anger. The search efficiencies of negative emotions (i.e., anger and sadness) but not positive emotions (i.e., happiness) were significantly improved by mindfulness training. Individuals with a high level of baseline emotional intelligence showed significant improvement in search efficiencies relative to those with a low level of emotional intelligence.

正念训练对大学生面部表情注意力的影响
正念训练对注意力的改善已得到证实。然而,正念训练对情绪刺激注意力的影响却不尽相同。我们采用了随机对照设计来研究正念训练对情绪表达注意力的影响,并研究了正念和情商的基线水平是否会调节干预效果。四十名参与者接受了为期八周的正念训练,另外四十名参与者参加了两次关于正念的讲座。所有参与者在培训前和培训后都完成了视觉搜索任务、五方面正念问卷和情商量表。结果显示,对于悲伤和愤怒的面孔,正念组搜索效率的提高幅度大于对照组,但对于快乐的面孔,正念组搜索效率的提高幅度小于对照组。此外,在正念训练与悲伤和愤怒情绪注意力之间的关系中,基线情商(而非倾向性正念)起到了显著的调节作用。正念训练能显著提高消极情绪(即愤怒和悲伤)的搜索效率,但不能提高积极情绪(即快乐)的搜索效率。与情商水平低的人相比,情商基线水平高的人在搜索效率方面有明显改善。
