- 소개/요약Depression is the most common mental illness in the elderly, and cost‑effective treatments are required. Therefore, this study is aimed at evaluating the effectiveness of a mindfulness‑based cognitive therapy (MBCT) on depressive symptoms, mindfulness skills, acceptance, and quality of life across four domains in patients with late‑onset depression. A single case design with pre‑ and post‑assessment was adopted. Five patients meeting the specified inclusion and exclusion criteria were recruited for the study and assessed on the behavioral analysis pro forma, geriatric depression scale, Hamilton depression rating scale, Kentucky inventory of mindfulness skills, Acceptance and Action Questionnaire II, The World Health Organization quality of life Assessment Brief version (WHOQO‑L‑BREF). The therapeutic program consisted of education regarding the nature of depression, training in formal and informal mindfulness meditation, and cognitive restructuring. A total of 8 sessions over 8 weeks were conducted for each patient. The results of this study indicate clinically significant improvement in the severity of depression, mindfulness skills, acceptance, and overall quality of life in all 5 patients. Eight‑week MBCT program has led to reduction in depression and increased mindfulness skills, acceptance, and overall quality of life in patients with late‑life depression.
