Exploring the applicability of a multifactor mindfulness scale in the Chinese college context.

The development of a precise and comprehensive mindfulness measurement tool is a compelling area of research due to its lack at present. This study examines the utility of a multifactor mindfulness scale, particularly the Chinese version of the Comprehensive Inventory of Mindfulness Experiences (CHIME), among Chinese college students. Prior to formal testing, 410 subjects completed the CHIME-37, providing feedback for refinement. During formal assessment, 1,785 subjects participated, with 490 students retested after 2 months. The validity of the CHIME-37 was evaluated using various scales, including subjective well-being, psychological well-being, peace of mind, self-reflection, insight, emotion regulation, depression-anxiety-stress, and sickness questionnaire. In exploratory factor analysis of Sample 1 (n = 838), CHIME revealed 8 factors, explaining 70.696% of the variance. Confirmatory factor analysis in Sample 2 (n = 947) confirmed the 8-factor model's validity. Internal consistency coefficients ranged from 0.848 to 0.914, with test-retest reliabilities ranging from 0.746 to 0.885, and split-half reliabilities ranging from 0.795 to 0.898. Total and dimension scores correlated positively with subjective well-being, psychological well-being, emotion stability, and cognitive reappraisal (p < 0.01) but negatively with physical and mental illnesses, depression-anxiety-stress, and expressive inhibition (p < 0.01). The revised CHIME demonstrates robust reliability and validity, establishing it as a suitable tool for measuring the mindfulness levels of Chinese college students.

Methods of Cognitive and Contextual Behavioral Areas of Psychotherapy in the Discourse of Conscious Living and Working with Emotional Dysregulation

Emotional dysregulation is a pathological condition characterized by insufficient or inadequate regulation of emotions. It can manifest itself as excessive intensity and duration of emotional reactions, as well as difficulties in managing and maintaining emotional stability. People with emotional dysregulation often feel an internal conflict between opposing desires and needs. For example, they may simultaneously strive for intimacy with other people and fear rejection, or strive for independence, autonomy in relationships, and, at the same time, fear the loss of attention to themselves and support. The article reviews modern scientifically evidence-based areas of cognitive and contextual behavioral psychotherapy based on the processes of awareness to work with emotional regulation; specific exercises are provided to work with cognitive distortions that lead to dysfunctional thoughts; visualization practice for working with cognitive division is demonstrated; introduces the concept of radical acceptance.

After confirming the basic information of the research participants and analyzing the original data by categorizing husband violence, wife violence, parental violence, and child violence into 4 categories based on criminal history and domestic violence incident factors, 3 categories and 73 meaning contents were derived. This study attempted to identify the factors of anxiety, self-differentiation, triangular relationships, and family projection processes through qualitative content analysis studies on experiences of violence. The research results are as follows:. First, as the anxiety of domestic violence offenders decreased and violence decreased without emotional reflex behavior, the previously undifferentiated level of self-differentiation improved. Second, there was a positive effect of detriangulating the family triangle of domestic violence perpetrators and forming an autonomous relationship.Third, the effect of stopping violence was found as the multigenerational transfer process was interrupted due to the family projection of domestic violence offenders. Based on these results, positive results emerged where emotional stability and cyclical interaction were observed while confirming immature behaviors in the family of domestic violence perpetrators. These studies suggest that there is the possibility of enhancing the positve effects in future counseling related to domestic violence offenders

카페 공간 디자인의 자연친화적 요소 분석

Modern people tend to seek emotional stability by introducing natural elements such as plants into living spaces to escape from the stuffy environment of the city. In particular, the cafe space is a place that people can easily access in their daily lives, and various cases in which nature-friendly elements are applied can be found. Therefore, this study aims to analyze the introduction and status of nature-friendly elements in the cafe space, and analyzed nature-friendly elements based on the criteria derived through prior research targeting 12 cafes with a nature-friendly concept. As a result of the study, nature-friendly elements with decorative and aesthetic effects were introduced in most cafe spaces.

Life-Course Pathways to Exceptional Longevity: Evidence From the Lothian Birth Cohort of 1921.

Longevity, a hallmark of successful aging, is a multifactorial trait with influences from birth onwards. However, limited evidence exists on the pathways linking diverse life-course exposures to longevity, especially within a single cohort. We investigated associations between life-course factors and longevity among community-dwelling adults aged 79 (N = 547) from the Lothian Birth Cohort 1921 with a mortality follow-up of 24 years. Cox proportional hazards and structural equation (path) models were used to explore how factors from early life (social class, childhood intelligence quotient [IQ], education), midlife (social class), and later life (health, lifestyle, psychosocial well-being), as well as sex, personality, and apolipoprotein E e4 status, influence survival time in days. During follow-up (1999-2023), 538 participants (98%) died (mean age of death = 89.3 years) and 9 survived (mean age = 101.6 years). Factors associated with lower mortality risk in the multivariable Cox model were higher cognitive function (hazard ratio [HR] = 0.72; 95% confidence interval [CI]: 0.59-0.88), better physical function (HR = 0.61; 95% CI: 0.44-0.85), and greater physical activity (HR = 0.81; 95% CI: 0.71-0.92), while history of cancer was associated with higher mortality risk (HR = 1.84; 95% CI: 1.22-2.77). The life-course path model identified the same direct predictors, with additional contributions from female sex and nonsmoking status, to greater longevity. Early- and midlife factors (IQ, education, social class), and emotional stability, conscientiousness, and female sex, were indirectly and positively associated with survival trajectories via multiple dimensions of adult health. In understanding why people live to very old ages it is necessary to consider factors from throughout the life course, and to include demographic, psychosocial, and health variables.
