Abstract

Objective: The present study aimed to evaluate the efficacy of a mindfulness-based cognitive therapy (MBCT) intervention in reducing problematic mobile phone use, depression, and sleep disorders among adolescents. Additionally, it sought to investigate whether the decrease in problematic mobile phone use acted as a mediator in the relationship between the MBCT intervention and adolescent depression and sleep disorders.

Methods: In a randomized controlled trial, a total of 104 adolescents were randomly assigned to the mindfulness group (n = 52) or the wait-list control group (n = 52). The mindfulness group students completed eight 45-min sessions of mindfulness training in four weeks. The outcomes were measured at baseline, postintervention, and at the 2-month follow-up.

Results: Compared with the control group, the mindfulness group had significantly greater levels of mindfulness and lower levels of problematic mobile phone use, depression, and sleep disorders postintervention. The intervention effects were maintained at the 2-month follow-up. In addition, decreased problematic mobile phone use significantly mediated the association between the MBCT intervention and decreased depression and decreased sleep disorders.

Conclusion: The findings suggest that MBCT could improve adolescent depression and sleep disorders and that decreasing problematic mobile phone use is an effective pathway accounting for the MBCT intervention effect on adolescent depression and sleep disorders.

减少有问题的手机使用是缓解青少年抑郁和睡眠障碍的途径吗?一项随机对照试验测试了为期八节的正念干预的有效性。
研究目的本研究旨在评估正念认知疗法(MBCT)干预在减少青少年问题性手机使用、抑郁和睡眠障碍方面的疗效。此外,本研究还试图调查问题手机使用量的减少是否会成为 MBCT 干预与青少年抑郁和睡眠障碍之间关系的中介因素:在随机对照试验中,共有 104 名青少年被随机分配到正念组(52 人)或等待对照组(52 人)。正念组学生在四周内完成八节45分钟的正念训练课。结果在基线、干预后和两个月的随访中进行了测量:结果:与对照组相比,正念组学生的正念水平明显提高,干预后的手机使用问题、抑郁和睡眠障碍水平明显降低。干预效果在两个月的随访中得以保持。此外,手机使用问题的减少在很大程度上调节了MBCT干预与抑郁和睡眠障碍减少之间的关系:研究结果表明,MBCT 可改善青少年抑郁和睡眠障碍,而减少使用问题手机是 MBCT 干预对青少年抑郁和睡眠障碍产生影响的有效途径。
