- 소개/요약This study investigated the effects of two mindfulness-based strategies on chocolate consumption among 135 students who expressed an interest in eating less chocolate. Participants were randomised to an intervention (cognitive defusion or acceptance) or control (relaxation) condition. Those in the cognitive defusion group were given strategies designed to help break automatic links between chocolate-related thoughts and chocolate consumption. Those in the acceptance group were given strategies designed to help tolerate uncomfortable feelings associated with chocolate cravings. Both drew on metaphors and exercises employed in Acceptance and Commitment Therapy. Those in the control group were given physical relaxation strategies. Training lasted approximately 25 min and all participants were given a handout describing the strategies and asking them to use them whenever they felt like eating chocolate over the next 5 days. Participants were given a transparent bag of chocolates to keep with them at all times and were also provided with a diary to record other chocolate and chocolate-related products eaten. Results showed participants in the cognitive defusion group ate significantly less chocolate than the control group (in terms of both ‘bagged’ chocolate and ‘other’ chocolate). There were no significant differences in chocolate consumption between the acceptance and control groups. A taste-test employed at the end of the requested period of abstinence showed no significant differences in chocolate consumption between the three groups, suggesting an absence of rebound effects amongst the cognitive defusion group. The findings suggest that a brief mindfulness-based strategy may help individuals eat a healthier diet.
