2019
Esta tesis doctoral surge del interés en investigar si la práctica de mindfulness puede ayudar a entrenar actitudes y habilidades que son esenciales en el ejercicio profesional de los psicólogos clínicos y sanitarios, enfocándose específicamente en la empatía. Se incluyen varios estudios de revisión bibliográfica sobre la importancia de mindfulness, empatía y compasión en el ámbito de la psicoterapia. Así mismo, se analiza la influencia de una intervención basada en mindfulness y compasión (IBMC) en la empatía en estudiantes de psicología clínica y de la salud, y se estudian sus efectos en la creatividad verbal, al ser una habilidad que puede estar interviniendo en la evolución de la empatí…
Empatía y Mindfulness. Convergencia teórica
2017
Este artículo revisa las principales aportaciones teóricas e investigaciones sobre la empatía y su relación con el mindfulness, con la finalidad de contribuir al estudio del desarrollo humano saludable. La empatía es un elemento esencial en las relaciones interpersonales. Se trata de un constructo que ha ido evolucionando a nivel teórico y del que cada vez tenemos un mayor conocimiento científicamente fundamentado. Las iniciativas para fomentarla, particularmente en el ámbito de la educación, han tenido resultados muy satisfactorios. En los últimos años, el incremento de estudios sobre los numerosos beneficios de la práctica de mindfulness –y sobre todo aquellos programas que incluyen la co…

Abstract A coach-guided Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) intervention that uses a blended approach of two face-to-face and five online sessions (iACT; N = 33) has been found to be more effective than a waiting-list control condition (WLC; N = 35) at enhancing the wellbeing of university students while also reducing stress and depression. The present study explored possible mediators of change that may account for the outcomes of the study. Mediation analyses revealed that changes in the non-reactivity subscale of mindfulness mediated changes in wellbeing, depression, and stress in the iACT group. In addition, changes in the sense of coherence subscale of meaningfulness mediated chang…
Ansiedad de ejecución, atención plena, autocompasión, rendimiento y satisfacción académica en estudiantes de música de la Universidad Autónoma de San…
2015
La ansiedad de ejecución musical suele ser un problema significativo en los estudiantes de música universitarios. Esta ansiedad generada en el músico, ya sea profesional o estudiante, se ha explicado y tratado desde diversas perspectivas teóricas (farmacológica, conductual, cognitivo-conductual). Sin embargo, en este momento, ya se empieza a consolidar la perspectiva contemplativa que surge de las denominadas, en psicología clínica, terapias de tercera generación. En este estudio, nos hemos centrado en una de ellas, el mindfulness o atención plena –atención o conciencia deliberada en el momento presente y sin juzgar- y un constructo básico en ella: la autocompasión –relación con nosotros mi…
Meditation and happiness: Mindfulness and self-compassion may mediate the meditation–happiness relationship
2015
Mindfulness and self-compassion are emerging as crucial constructs in mental health research. Recent studies have shown that both mindfulness and self-compassion skills may play important roles in well-being and positive emotions associated with mindfulness training. Studies are needed to explain this relationship and to determine what facets may be correlating and mediating the meditation-happiness relationship. The aim of this study was to explore the meditation-happiness relationship and examine which mindfulness and self compassion facets are better predictors of happiness. A total of 365 participants completed an assessment protocol composed of: the Five Facets of Mindfulness Questionn…
Promoting Sustainability: The Effects of Workplace Mindfulness Training
2018
Mindfulness training is enjoying growing popularity in workplaces. In the current study, the effects of workplace mindfulness training were evaluated using quantitative and qualitative methods. The study’s novelty value arises from the implementation of workplace training among factory employees and the mixed-methods approach to evaluation. The quasi-experimental design with training and control groups included pre- and postmeasurements and four focus group interviews. The results of the pre-post-test indicated that, compared with the participants in the control group, the participants in the mindfulness-based training group displayed significantly greater increases in mindfulness, positive…

Organisational Learning and Knowledge Management: A Prospective Analysis Based on the Levels of Consciousness
2018
In this chapter, we analyse the concepts of organizational learning and knowledge management by relating them to the levels of human and organizational consciousness. In doing so, we understand the existence of different conceptualizations of both organizational learning and knowledge management, and relate them to several organizational models and levels of organizational learning. The learning organization model is related to the highest level of consciousness and to the highest level of learning: triple-loop learning. We associate this with an organizational learning perspective that stresses the importance of mindfulness, mindful learning, and with a knowledge management perspective tha…
The effects of 8-weeks Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction program on cognitive control: an EEG study
2019
Objectives: Mindfulness practice can enhance different aspects of attentional functions, such as the ability to sustain the attentional focus over time. However, it is still unclear whether this practice might indeed impact higher cognitive functions, such as control mechanisms that allow the appropriate and flexible allocation of attentional resources. In this longitudinal study, changes associated with a mindfulness-based stress reduction (MBSR) program were investigated, with a focus on proactive and reactive cognitive control mechanisms, namely, the ability to maintain task-relevant information and to prepare in advance the response, and the ability to promptly adjust overlearned behavi…
ACT for sleep - Internet-delivered self-help ACT for sub-clinical and clinical insomnia : A randomized controlled trial
2019
Background: Sleep disturbances are a common health problem. New and more accessible alternatives are needed to improve the availability of psychological treatments for insomnia. - Objective: The aim of the present study was to investigate the effects of a self-help Acceptance and Commitment Therapy-based web-intervention for sleep disturbances. - Method: Participants (N = 86) reporting symptoms of insomnia were randomly assigned to an Internet-delivered ACT (iACT, n = 43) or a control condition (WLC, n = 40) and assessed with standardized self-report measures related to sleep (ISI, BNSQ, ESS, DBAS), psychological symptoms (BDI-II, SCL-90), life satisfaction, and ACT-related processes (AAQ-2…
