Abstract

ABSTRACT Clinical trainees are especially prone to psychological distress. Mindfulness has shown to promote well-being among health care professionals, yet the mechanisms through which it reduces psychological distress are still uncertain. Self-determination theory suggests that mindfulness allows individuals to be more open and receptive to information from their inner and outer worlds, which facilitates satisfaction of their basic psychological needs (BPNS), considered essential to optimal functioning. However, studies investigating whether BPNS is an actual pathway through which mindfulness reduces psychological distress are limited to cross-sectional designs. This longitudinal study tested a mediation model using data collected among 27 clinical trainees at the beginning (T1) and mid-point of the academic year (T2). Results indicated that BPNS (T1) partially mediates the relationship between trait mindfulness (T1) and psychological distress (T2). Both the direct (β = −.36, 95%CI [−.67; −.05]) and indirect (β = −.27, 95%CI [−.58; −.05]) effects were significant. This model explained a large portion of variance for both needs satisfaction (R 2 = .30) and psychological distress (R 2 = .61). Our results not only yield support to the role of basic psychological needs in clinical trainees’ well-being, but also contribute to the understanding of mindfulness and one of its mechanisms of action.

基本心理需求满足在临床学员特质正念与心理困扰关系中的中介作用
摘要临床实习生特别容易产生心理困扰。正念已被证明能促进医疗保健专业人员的幸福感,但它减少心理困扰的机制仍不确定。自决理论认为,正念使个人能够更开放地接受来自内外世界的信息,这有助于满足他们的基本心理需求(BPNS),这被认为是最佳功能的关键。然而,调查BPNS是否是正念减少心理困扰的实际途径的研究仅限于横断面设计。这项纵向研究使用在学年开始(T1)和中期(T2)在27名临床受训人员中收集的数据测试了中介模型。结果表明,BPNS(T1)部分介导了特质正念(T1)与心理困扰(T2)之间的关系。直接效应(β=−.36,95%置信区间[-.67;−.05])和间接效应(β=−.27,95%可信区间[-.58;−.05])均显著。该模型解释了需求满足(R2=0.30)和心理困扰(R2=0.61)的大部分方差。我们的结果不仅支持了基本心理需求在临床受训者幸福感中的作用,而且有助于理解正念及其作用机制之一。
