- 소개/요약This study examined the clinical utility of a meditation, mindfulness, and mantra intervention for youth experiencing serious mental illness while incarcerated. Participants were 17 adolescent males, aged 16 to 18, from two units of a county detention center in the San Francisco Bay Area. Eleven (64.7%) participants were Latino-American, one (5.9 %) was Black/African American, three (17.6 %) were Caucasian-American, one (5.9%) was Asian-American and one (5.9%) self-identified as “other/mixed race.” The intervention consisted of a four-session adaptation of the Inner Resources for Teens (IRT) manualized intervention, designed to teach and practice skills for developing sustained mindfulness. Participants completed the intervention over a four-week period, attending one hour per week. They were asked to practice the techniques for ten minutes a day. Participants were assessed using the Child Acceptance and Mindfulness Measure (CAMM) and the Brief Symptom Inventory (BSI) at pre-treatment, mid-treatment, and immediate post-treatment. Intent-to-treat analyzes found statistically significant reductions in global severity (d = − 0.44), positive symptoms distress (d = − 0.54), obsessive compulsive symptoms (d = − 0.65), paranoid ideation (d = − 0.49), and psychoticism (d = − 0.71). Positive symptoms, somatization, depression, hostility, and mindfulness non-significantly improved with small effect sizes. These findings suggest that IRT may improve symptoms of mental illness among youth in detention facilities.
